A glimpse of the weekend and Sean's socks

It was a perfect early Fall weekend. Much better than last Saturday's rain soaked soccer. We ended the weekend with dinner and a fire outside...and we tried to persuade Sean that grilled vegetables were very delicious and something he should try to eat. He ate a few bites of grilled orange pepper...no luck with the other offerings. On a different topic, Sean continues to insist on wearing his socks pulled up to his knees. It has become his signature look. I keep looking for 70's style tube socks (with a stripe at the top) but so far have not found any. So he will continue to stretch his poor socks to the limit so they will give him the right look.

Saturday soccer part deux

Here are some pics of Jackson's game. The boys had a blast and were running and laughing as they kicked the ball around. I think his entire team has blond hair! We love the coaches, too. And we are happy that the rule for snakcs this year is healthy stuff only...no more Twinkies and Oreos as post game refreshments!!

Soccer Saturdays have begun

One game done, one to go...

Jackson , Sean and some of the bus stop gang!

Back to School!

Today was Sean's first day of kindergarten. He was very excited and kept asking, "How many more minutes till we leave for school" this morning. He was very excited to ride the bus with Jackson this year. Jackson handled the first day in stride. As a seasoned second grader, this is old hat for him. But he was excited to see all his friends and get out to recess.
