Football anyone?

Well, here we are again! After last years "fiasco" with football, and Braxton vowing to never play again, I thought we were home free. However, Mike talked him into giving it one more shot and if he didn't want to play anymore then he didn't have to. We are at a different park this year, so he doesn't know any of the kids. And to make things worse we bumped him up to the 8 year old team. (It's a long story) So he is going up against boys who have been playing two years longer than he has, although he is one of the bigger kids. The coaches seem to yell A LOT more at this age, and the boys seem to take it well. We just had our first game yesterday and we lost 6/0. It was actually a good game and we went into overtime. After the game the coach announced that he would be working the offensive line, AKA Braxton's position, extra hard on Monday.

Braxton on the end. Notice he is the only one wearing long socks. He loves to be "warm", as he calls it.

Braxton is the one on the end with the dark socks pulled down.

Moving in

Well, we've been in the house for almost a month now and we are just about done unpacking. A week after we moved in I made the trek, across the country out to Utah to visit family and friends for a couple of weeks. It was nice to relax and not think about the mess I had left in Georgia, but all things come to an end and we had to return. So it was back to unpacking.

As you can see, some of our furniture, well doesn't really match, so we will slowly but surely be replacing it. As for the kids, they are adjusting. Braxton hasn't quite met anyone in the neighborhood, but has made some friends at school. Hailey tells me EVERYDAY, she wants to go "home". I have to remind her that she is home.

These two rooms are pretty much the only two that are fully unpacked. The kitchen and Keeping room.

I haven't quite decided on what to do with the kids rooms, so I bought some vinyl stickers to go on their walls so they aren't so bare. Hailey of course had to have all princess stickers. When I put up the castle she was so excited and said......"how beautiful!"
