August was definitely a busier month than the recent norm for us. We have been doing several home projects including adding a home office to the house for Colin and completely redoing the backyard which wrapped up. The kids started sports, Colin got to "attend" a Braves game from afar and we hung out with friends when we could. It was nice to have a little normalcy before the winter weather comes and things slow again.
Avery (6 years) - Avery kicked off her Fall Sports season participating in a family wiffle ball game with Carter's baseball team. She got several hits and runs with the help of coach dad. He favorite part of the day was the water balloon fight. She had no problems hanging with the big boys. Avery and dad had a fun drive-in movie date night. And Avery started softball again with dad as her coach and a team of all friends. She basically plays because her friends do but is excited to be a Rainbow Unicorn. She continues to have a strong group of neighborhood girls she plays with about every day.
Parker (8 years, 9 months) - Parker decided to try out for the same travel baseball organization Carter played with last year and he excitedly made a team. He has been enjoying the kid son his team but is still getting use to the higher expectations from his coaches and the extra practices. He has been working on pitching and is excited to give it a try in a game soon!
Carter (10 years, 3 months) - Carter's travel baseball season and Summer golf seasons came to an end this month. He tried out and made the baseball team again for the next year so he is back playing baseball all the time! He enjoyed his golf season though it was mainly because he got to see several friends on the course each week. Carter also got to go to iFly with his friend Phillip for his birthday.
Siblings - The backyard and the ball field have been the most frequently visited locations for the Holden's this month!
