What???? Two weeks in a row???

We're back!!!! Can you believe it? Hmmm. Mom must not have enough to do -- or else is procrastinating. It's been ridiculously hot the past couple of days so we're looking forward to some better fall weather. BUT, the kids were troopers through their first weekend of games. Cole played football Saturday morning -- not a great game sorry to say... Then Hayley had soccer immediately after. We were all anxious to get back into our climate controlled environment after that!!! Not too many pictures, but here's what we caught...





A nice catch and short run by Cole.


Hayley is the tiny one -- second from left.


Doing some drills.


Playing keep away....


Cole had a journaling assignment from school this weekend that involved being a "host family" for his teacher's Mickey Mouse. I think Hayley enjoyed the assignment MUCH more than Cole!

Off the face of the Earth....

I guess I ventured over the edge for a while (a long while) but have now decided to return. Sorry for the LONG lag in posts. It's ridiculous. So...you're wondering what's been up since August 6th??? Here we go...
Baseball Camp...Awesome
Vacation to New Hampshire. A little wet, but always a welcomed change of pace.
Orioles vs. Red Sox. Love the Sox. (Hayley now declares she hates Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers. Mom wonders, is Manny Ramirez on the Dodgers, but takes the 3 year old's word for it...)
Back to school -- mom celebrates. We almost made it! One down, one to go!
Birthday dinner...Japanese Steak House. YUM! (Already planning for John's birthday now)
Birthday party - should have made the social pages...
Actual birthday.
BOTH KIDS IN SCHOOL...Mom loves September!
It will probably be another month before I post again, so we're looking forward to (more school ;) ), Hayley's soccer, Cole's football and golf and lots of fall fun.
Happy Thanksgiving. HAHA!
