Here's a recent picture of Scott and me. Sean actually took this picture of us before we out to dinner. He did a really good job I think. But we were on out way to Outback for dinner.
Auburn Game

All we do anymore is go to ball games. So for a bit you'll hear a lot about football. But hey, it's football season. Is there really anything else happening in the world?

Kim was able to come down today and see her nephew play. Sean and Asia love it when their Auntie Kim comes to see them.



Sean's team did well again. They won 12 to 7. It was a good win againt the Auburn Tigers. Sean scored another touchdown and ran the ball pretty well. He did have a couple fumbles that we weren't too happy about but he's pretty consisent otherwise hanging on to the ball.



I did get a shot of him running the ball and he's stiff arming the guy. It looks like he's doing the heisman.

The pictures I got at work are actually right in front of the building. We have a really nice waterfall. So after the kids got done throwing pennies into it they posed for mommy. Johnny and Laura did too and I got some nice photos of everybody.

Too bad Scott wasn't there. We have so few pictures together.





Welcome Grandparents!

Today was grandparents day at school. Johnny and Laura were able to get away for a few days and celebrate with us. Thank goodness Labor Day is on Monday so they can actually stay and rest and not have to rush off once they got here.

But it was really nice, the presentation they had for all the guests at the school. Asia had a presentation with her class in the room for all the grandparents and then gifts. And then Sean's age group, the rest of the elementary had the big production in the auditorium.

Sean was part of the group that started the ceremony which was pretty cool. He and two other little girls got up center stage to do all of the pledges. He started the one to the Christian flag.

Afterwards, we all went to Chick-Fil-A, ate lunch, walked around, met people and then I was able to get some nice pictures outside. So now we're all home about to watch a movie, The Waterhorse, and Scott's at a football game.

I'll post a review on the movie later and give my thumbs up or down. :)

It's football season! Sean opened up the season today againt the Red Raiders at Q.B. and did a fantastic job. I was actually working in the concession stand so I missed the first three quarters of the game. But fortunately for me, all the action happened during the fourth quarter.

One of his teamates went in to score and then Sean made the two point conversion. Then Sean was able to score on the bootleg (whatever that means). All I know is that my boy was in the endzone with the ball and the ref had his arms up in the air! He then made another two point conversion.

So the game is almost over. One of the other boys steps in, throws the ball into the endzone and Sean is there with ready hands. I think He got those from Scott. But he caught and he scored. Ball game. We won 20-0 against the other team. It was a great way to open this season.

First day of school!

Sean and Asia had a really good day. Sean has a really nice teacher who's very patient, has boys of her own, and some of his friends are the class too. So he's pretty excited about this upcoming year. Asia has Sean's old teachers when he was in K-5, Mrs. Farr and Sandi. She sat right down at her desk and went straight to work on her sheets. And Asia ended up winning the smart board challenge that day, matching exercises so she was pretty happy about that.

It was only half a day so we ended at lunch and the kids and I went to Chinese for lunch and had a good time. Scott couldn't join us becuase he had to get ready for the football teams lock in they were having. All the varsity players, coaches, and the coaches sons spent the night at the school. They had 3 practices in 12 hours. That took the place of the traditional camps they had in the past.

So Asia and I were menless for the night. So we had a slumber party in the livingroom. We played with makeup, painted our nails, ate tons of popcorn, watched Barbie movies and then slept on the floor in the livingroom with lot's of pillows.

So far the beginning of the school year has been pretty fun.

Hey, if you look really close, in the picture of Sean and Asia standing together in front of the school, you can tell that her shoes don't match. :) I got her a matching set this weekend. :)
