September is one of my favorite months and this year proved no different. There is always so much going on and the weather is just wonderful. We have settled into a school routine and while we are busy, it feels so much more manageable now that I am not teaching piano. Here are some of the things we enjoyed last month:
We took a very quick Labor Day trip down to the farm. Knowing that our weekends would be crammed pack with soccer, we decided that we had to squeeze in just one more trip. It hasn't rained all summer, but alas, this weekend was when the drought was broken!!! And that means only one thing in Missouri....MUD! Of course, the kids loved it and spent most of their time either in the mud or playing in the hay house they constructed in the barn.
Next up, it was crazy sock day at school. Always fun to bring out the socks!
Jordan spends most of her free time playing school. She reminds me so much of myself at that age. She definitely has the "teaching bug". Recently, she got out my old calendar and added it to her bedroom wall.
We have been enjoying some serious Utah State football around here. My talented friend made this awesome helmet cake for the USU vr. Utah game.
Then the following weekend, Tod and I headed to Wisconsin to watch the Aggies battle the Badgers. The outcome of the game was disappointing but we had a great day together and really enjoyed being in Wisconsin. We first visited the state capital which was beautiful. The stadium and band were incredible. The environment (true fraternity row! think "beer funnel"! was eye-opening for me!!) Thanks to awesome babysitters at home, the kids also had a great day.
And that's our month of September! What a great time of the year.
