Back to school...back to posting!

I'm am so bad at this blogging thing.... I guess at least I posted within a couple of months this time instead of a year. Life is as hectic as ever, but I don't know how else to live it. The kids are finally back in school and I'm hoping that at least now we can have "organized chaos", rather than the pure mayhem of summer! Braxten is in the 4th grade and has Mrs. Vernon as his homeroom teacher. So far he is LOVING school because he gets to sit right next to his girlfriend, Jenny. They are so cute...oh those elementary crushes!
Tristen is in 6th grade this year and has Mr. Peck for her homeroom teacher. She absolutely loves middle school....the different teachers, friends, lockers and most of all BOYS! She is going to be trouble, I can tell.

Outside of school, Braxten is playing football and loving every minute of it. I don't know who enjoys it more, myself or him. They have had 2 games so far. They played Brigham City last week and won 12-19 and West Haven last week but lost 20-37. Tristen is still tumbling and cheering and she just signed up for volleyball. It is the only team sport she participates in, so I'm happy to let her do it, even though it means more running around to practices and games.
I am so grateful that they are both healthy enough and enjoy participating in sports. It is so much fun to watch them do well and better themselves. They are truly my pride and joy!!!
