CRAZY BUSY !!!!!

My last post was about how I couldn't believe that school was about to start...and now I am already posting how school has started and we have not slowed down for one second!!!
We are in week 3 of school. The kids have both adjusted well to their new school. One benefit to playing sports in Forney and being connected to a church group is that you are bound to know kids in all the elementary schools. The kids have reconnected with many friends that they already knew and they have already made new friends. They both really like their teachers and neither of them have gotten a conduct mark yet! (Keep saying those prayers!)

With school starting comes fall sports. Cole is playing fall baseball this season. This will be his first season to play KID PITCH! Chris is not coaching this fall, we decided that Cole needed some time away from dad to really prove himself and Chris needed some time away from coaching to catch up on things around the home front. Cole got drafted to the Yankees!!! If you only knew how much he hated the NY Yankees you would really see the humor! Again he has a great coach and knew some of the other kids so he is having a great time and we are looking forward to his first game this Saturday! Go Yankees!!!

Chloe is beginning her 4th year or her 7th season of soccer. She is still on the Ballhogs. There are 4 girls on the team that have played together for several years now. Like Cole she is moving up a division as well. They were suppose to move up to the Under 7 division, however there weren't many teams in that age bracket so they decided to combine under 7 and under 8 leagues! This should make for very interesting games! Especially for Chloe since she HATES to lose! We are excited to see her first game on Saturday as well!

This past weekend we had an extremely busy weekend. We took advantage of the long weekend and "partied" for three days! We had birthday parties, family gatherings, picnics, and even worked in a trip to Six Flags! The following pictures are just a few from our crazy busy weekend!
My SILLY girls playing outside! Chloe is very good with her baby sister!
The birthday party we went to was a Rock N Roll party at the local dance studio. Corlee loved dressing up and watching herself dance in the mirror!
**Bonus**She took a great nap when we got home!



Yes, Chloe enjoyed herself too! Such a SASSY little thing!

We also enjoyed some time at Chris' mom and dad's new pool!
The kids love to swim at Noni and Papa's!



Can't have a family picnic without some good ole' watermelon!
Corlee enjoyed EVERY bite!
This is a pic taken at the top of the tower at Six Flags! I had actually never been up there!
We had a great time, it wasn't crowded and CHLOE even rode the TITAN!
For those of you keeping tabs on our housing situation...we do have a contract on a house and are looking to close the end of this month! I believe that's all for now...until next time!
