Moving =)

We have a contract on our house and should close by the 16th depending on Hurricane Ida. We will be moving into a rental until our house is complete. Brad Michael and Candice's house is almost complete. They will probably move in toward the end of this month. I love having them closer. Micah and Addison have so much fun playing together.

Brett scored his first touchdown!!!

Yesterday was Brett's first football game of the season. He scored his first ever touchdown!!! It was also the only touchdown scored for his team. The score was 0-0 and the game went into overtime. Brett scored a touchdown but the team missed the extra point. The other team then scored a touchdown and got their extra point. We ended up losing the game 7-6. Brett still came home excited. I am so proud of him.

Update!

Brett's All-Star baseball team came in 2nd place during the subdistrict tournament last night. They will now move on to the district tournament that begins in a week. Baseball has been keeping us very busy this summer. Addison is such a good sport a the ball park. She stays happy most of the time. She is learning something new almost every day. Joe is doing good, just working hard. He has the day off today and is helping my brother and Candice move. We still have our house for sale. No bites!!! Hopefully it will sell soon. I hope you are all having a great summer!

Patio ideas

Our lot has a slope similar to this. Love it but don't know how affordable it would be.

Summer Fun!

This video is of Brett and Addison playing in the backyard on her new splash pad. She loves being outside. During the day she will go to the back door and reach up toward the door knob and cry to let you know that she wants out in the backyard. The swing set was a great investment! We spend a lot of time outdoors.

Summer Fun!!!

Brett has been out of school for a few weeks now. We have been staying busy going to the YMCA and Waterville. We got season passes and added one of his friends. We have already been three times. Addison loves it! Brett made the all-star team for baseball. Practice will be starting soon. His best friend also made the team so I think he is going to have a blast! Our house is still for sale but we have a builder looking at a possible trade. He is going to call me by Wednesday with some numbers. Joe has been very busy at work lately. Both of his partners have been out of town and he has been the only one in the office. Next week they will all be back on a regular schedule. He is excited about that. I hope everyone is doing good. I will post some more pictures as soon as I take some more.

Stephen's Visit in Dauphin Island

Stephen (my stepbrother) came home on military leave. We haven't seen him in over a year. Dad and Sheryl rented a house on Dauphin Island for the week. It was absolutely wonderful!!! Our entire family had a week to relax, fish, swim, and spend quality time together. We also visited Fort Gaines and the Dauphin Island Sea Lab. I hated to see the week come to an end. I've included some pictures from our trip. Hope you enjoy!
