In No Certain Order….

Bobbi Marie got a stamp kit for her birthday (thanks M) and this is her first piece…for her cute little sister, Miss A.

This is Bobbi and part of her history class doing a report sorta thing at a history fair. Bad pic, I know.

We finally did the ropes course at Mosi. We took our friend, T.J. for his birthday. I even did it with Charlie. It was alot of fun, I do have to say. :)

The girl's Cross Country team made it to state. Good job, girls! One run left.

Cooper's rec team won the tournament, AND…..

Bobbi and Ava's team won the tournament. That sounds crazy but true.

Both teams played amazing, especially when it counted. You know how that is….you can have a great season, expect to win and then some underdog team comes and knocks out the first place team. Well, that is what happened with Coop's team. They were not expected to win and they won! Rec soccer is over, school soccer has started, cross country is finishing up (real soon). The joys of outside sports! My husband and I thought about that, we only have outside sport's kids. No basketball, volleyball, wrestling, nothing to do with a gym. Not sure if that is good or bad but we just realized we are the hot/cold bleacher, grass, dirt kinda family. Summing up our weeks in one post feels good. And it helps my kids to see their cute little faces in the blog. Happy days…..

IF by Rudyard Kipling

If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, or, being lied about, don't deal in lies, or being hated don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise; If you can dream - and not make dreams your master; If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim, If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster and treat those two impostors just the same; If you bear to hear the truth you've spoken twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, and stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools; If you can make one heap of all your winnings and risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, and lose, and start again at your beginnings, and never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew to serve your turn long after they are gone, and so hold on when there is nothing in you except the Will which says to them; "Hold on!" If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch, If either foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the earth and everything that's in it, and which is more, you'll be a man, my son!

My Dad

our last christmas, little did we know!! we miss you-you are always in our thoughts. We sold his house, it was as if we had to say goodbye again. Nothing but fond memories. Movie night, hide and go seek, fishing, the beach, pool table, weight room, ice cream, bagels, peach diet iced tea, laughing...simply you. Miss you more than you will ever know. It feels as if it was just yesterday, thank God you are "free". "With your final heartbeat, kiss the world goodbye, go in peace and laugh on Glory's side. And fly to Jesus, fly to Jesus, fly to Jesus and LIVE....." .
