Sure soccer season has been going for a month. Sure the kiddos went back to school after Labor Day. What's my excuse for blog-failure? (Well, I really have some . . . including that fact that Michael went on a business trip to Chicago for a week and took the laptop . . . rude! My other excuses are that the school auction project has taken over my life, and after that is done I've got the Relief Society crafting activity and T's birthday party . . . . I haven't even thought about Christmas yet, that is unusual for me!)

Without further ado . . .

I didn't teach him to push like that. I swear. But the ref never calls anything, so I'll keep my mouth shut.

1st grade soccer is a study in hilarity. And group hugs, high fives, swarms of children moving in packs around the ball, and snacks containing high-fructose corn syrup.
And smiles.
First day of school. Alice looks scared. But I don't think she was.
We have since shorn Seth's lion mane off his head. It was getting a little out of control . . . but I kind of liked it all curly and wild.

The silly band craze has hit our house . . . If I'd known that I could use them with the kids in place of legal tender I would have bought a few packs ages ago. Best. Bribery. Tool. Ever.
