Well, we made it through the first few days of school! Matthew & Jacob both have had a great couple of days...we're praying that it continues!

Yesterday Rob had to work all day over at the University...bummer. I went with the boys to their first soccer games of the fall season. Jacob was so completely excited...especially when he got his shirt right before the game. His is grey and Matthew's is red this year. The highlight of Jacob's game for him was ALMOST scoring a goal from a kickoff! In Pre-K they play without a goalie and when he went to do a kickoff it went all the way to the goal...but, just missed it! He had so much fun! Matthew's game was in the afternoon...it's a good thing we live pretty close to the soccer fields! One of the highlights for Matthew was getting really close to scoring a goal himself...his didn't quite make it either...but he was excited none-the-less. We're off to a good start for the soccer season!

Today, after church, Rob and the boys went out to his Dad's house. Rob is working on rebuilding an old Oliver 70 tractor...he's taking it on a big tractor ride next weekend...the same one he was in last year. Rob took some time off and took the boys fishing for a while at his Dad's pond. Jacob caught tons of bluegill and Matthew caught a 16-inch catfish. The photos are on Rob's phone...I have no idea how to download them here or I would!

I stayed home today and got caught up on laundry, did some cleaning & watched a little bit of t.v.

Thanks for taking the time to check in and have a GREAT week.
