WHAT HAVE WE BEEN DOING ALL THIS TIME?

Good question.  Football and Marching Band season completely consumed the fall.

It was fast, furious, and so much fun.  It was great to see 2 kids at the same activity for once!  Evan played punt return for Varsity football, and Defensive Linebacker for JV.  It was a disappointing season, but he had fun playing football anyway!  The marching band performed well this year.  They travelled to exotic places like Louisville, KY, Jacksonville, AL and Indianapolis, IN.  It was the first time to compete at a Grand National Championship.  It was a bonus that they marched at Lucas Oil in Indy!

In October for Fall Break, we took advantage of a break from activities and camped at Camp Tugaloo state park in Georgia.  It was relaxing, fun and cold!  We're pretty sure Riley enjoyed it the most.

The fire was a bit smokey because the kids burned these all weekend:

and Allie took about 150 pictures of the fire close up.

Isn't he so cute?

The kids all took a turn trying to cut firewood:

Thankfully, no one lost a toe.  

SQUIRREL!

Evan and Allie whittled sticks:

Drew played catch with Dad.  A lot.

Darin spent the weekend (his birthday) hiding from the camera.

Mostly he was chopping wood.

That's it for September and October.  

November was IRONMAN.

Post forthcoming.
