fall season came quickly with all the activites. it was a great season overall. the boys were able to play football with classmates and neighborhood friends. this league they play in has been such a blessing. rugby was fun as always for daddy. no injuries so im a happy mama. we enjoyed a few games before baby sister shows up! the teammates he has are amazing.

just what we needed! we got a different cabin than we had before, unexpectedly and it was great as ever. these little ones know how to have fun. maximilian you wanted to keep up so badly and you really did. you are the only one at this age to willingly jump, splash and float along. we enjoyed late nights and eating almost every meal outside. you all make me want to go back again. you’re the best family to vacation with. now we say goodbye to 2020 summer. we definitely made the best of it!
keeping up …
so yes, i have been drafting posts for a while until i had all the photos working … now mama updated her phone and i feel like i can almost catch up!
anna kate, sweet girl, had her first atrium today. we are making a drive to make it work on our fridays but this mama loves this program to much to miss out on it. afterwards we celebrated with sonic. maximilian recognizes a red straw and it’s kind of scary… hes not even nine months yet.

daddy thirty -three {let’s go camping!}
we surprised daddy with a wolverine party, a huge spicy hamburger and tons of legos to build for his birthday this year.
what would we do without him! so grateful for another birthday with him and all the new adventures we take together. we left the following weekend for a birthday in a cabin in new mexico. it was a great break from the intense heat in west texas. we also just loved getting away from the norm too! it was so much fun and so good for all of us to enjoy new scenery together.
happy birthday
{and any more!! as samuel says 🤗}

football season with the frogs…
what a great year this boy had for his first football season. it was so great to watch him and his teammates make so much progress.
you have quite the cheerleaders for you buddy! we can’t wait for next season! this may be one of my favorite sports to watch you play in right now! 🙂

first of many…
what a great get away we had! southern california was so good to us. we visited with family, had a night out and just enjoyed the sites and our time together so much! anna kate you were a trooper on the flight and learned a few new tricks this week. clapping your hands and waving hi to everyone, you had people just squealing over you and no it wasn’t just me and daddy. jack you loved the beach so much! the first visit was a lot to take in but then you fell in love. samuel, you and sand were love at first site. you even poured a handful on your head. just for fun. crazy kids… you were excellent travelers which excites mama and daddy for many more future adventures ahead!
{our week in southern california… best told in pictures}

i would say our first family of five vacation was a success!

until next time…
good game…
another ball game weekend in the books. the weather couldn’t be more perfect here. and our player got to play catcher for the first time. to say he was excited would be an understatement.
jack, we are so proud of you and daddy’s hard work this season! here’s to many more fun games!
xxoo
put me in coach!
he’s ready to play another season!
the biggest littlest fans…
we loaded up the car after the game i couldn’t help but smile…sitting right by our car was a big butterfly.
i think we got our “hello” or rather “good game” from heaven 🙂
we are so excited for this season and so proud of daddy for taking on the role as coach. they had an awesome first game!

til gabriel blows his horn…
sometimes love can make you do crazy things…
about a month ago daddy called me up and asked if he could take jack to a ut basketball game. its jack’s new hobby, all. things. basketball. seeing as how we have a crazy semester going on, i asked if we { me, samuel and ak} were invited too. i told daddy it could be a fun family trip, despite who was playing basketball :p …. it really was a great day. the kids were awesome and we all had a great time! anna kate, you were a trooper.
and jack, you were in heaven. samuel you were probably the best little brother to hang out all day, in a burnt orange shirt, just for jack.
until next time austin…
