September

September provided more golf opportunities for dad (watching and playing) though he was able to get some actual work in as well. The boys have been really enjoying playing baseball together and thankfully haven't had too many sibling fights on the field. Thankfully everyone has settled in to their Fall routines and is doing well at school.


Avery (10 years, 1 month) - Avery continues to enjoy school and tennis. She continues to grow up a bit showing more opinions about her hair/clothes but also enjoys taking on some household activities like shopping and helping pick up. She is always down for playing with friends and enjoys finding ways for the boys to fight over her attention.

Parker (12 years, 10 months) - Parker played lots of baseball with his two teams and continues to enjoy cross country. He is settling in well to 7th grade, it is definitely more work than last year but he is keeping up and enjoying it. But mainly enjoys seeing his friends at school.

Proud of his fried rice cooking


Carter (14 years, 4 months) - Carter had a few fun activities between baseball games this month. Our YMSL chapter performed an Ultimate Gift activity benefiting the Mighty Eight which is a local veterans organization. We cleaned up a plaza at their museum and took verbal testimonials from Veterans. In addition to the manual labor, the boys performed the interviews, handled the equipment and produced the videos. Lovett also held their 9th grade retreat taking the grade to Camp Coleman for a bonding experience with their advisories.

Siblings - There was lots of baseball including watching the boys, the boys playing and watching the Braves. Dad also took the bookends to the North Georgia Fair. And we all did a paint bomb escape room activity. The boys escaped while the girls didn't (but were quite close). Much to Parker's chagrin, the boys decided to get paint bombed anyway!
