Update Finally!







So I have not updated this blog in a long time. Since I have posted, so many things have gone on. I have quit working as of May 31. It was bittersweet, but I am glad I chose to stay home with the boys. They have started kindergarten and love it. They are getting used to getting up early and getting out the door by 8 am. They love their teacher, Mrs. Niemann, she is wonderful! Owen was leader yesterday and Peyton is leader today. They love to help in the classroom and at home so that is right up their alley. We had a great summer. We really did not go anywhere exciting or do anything exciting..the boys swam almost everyday, we have been taking care of our Golden doodle puppy, Winnie. She is a handful, but loving. She is still a puppy, but is very fun! The boys love taking care of her and being in charge of her! We went to Six Flags and the boys loved it! They rode rides, loved the water rides the best! We also visited Chicago at the end of summer, we visited Navy Pier, Sears Tower, Shedd Aquarium, The Museum of Science and Industry. The boys loved the museums. Navy Pier was packed, but the boys loved Bubba Gump Shrimp Company. We took the Amtrak up there from Springfield. It was awesome! The train was so much fun and the boys loved it! We took cabs all over the city and the boys thought that was very cool.

School is back in full force. Chris starts basketball next week, so the nights will get crazy around here! I have loved being home and doing things around the house. Now that everyone is at school, its much easier to get things done here. I am looking forward to fall and football season! The boys are pumped to go to the football games! That's about it from here, talk to everyone when the leaves turn red and orange!
