Highlights of the fall were a visit from the Stachlers, Soccer, one more job for mom and the annual Burton party.
Lets see Soccer would be first. Both boys did a fall soccer league this Fall. Calvin was in the 3rd/4th grade league and Drew was in the 1st/2nd grade league. Naturally the practices and games are on different days and in different locations. Both boys really liked the leagues and seemed to have a great time. Drew likes to wind up and kick the ball as hard as he can. Calvin was in the big leagues which was stressful for mom. They play on a much bigger field, have some REALLY good players, more competition, and even night games under the lights. Calvin was more focused while playing then in years past but is still working on keeping his head 100% in the game.
The Annual Burton party is something the boys remember year to year and really look forward to. This year was more fun for mom and dad as both boys could go off by themselves and Lauren was able to go with the Nannys. Also mom didn't have the Leaf Peepers 1/2 marathon the next day. It was a cool, rainy day but a fun day and an end of the summer ritual. I will add that keep prepping Calvin for the time the invites stop coming.
Mom signed up for a six week boot camp Monday morning in Waterbury. Lots of fun, very hard and great ladies.
Ken ran the Leaf Peepers 5K this year. The same day we had a friend from Colorado come through for a quick visit. It was great to see Melissa again and her daughter.
Mom also picked up one more and the last new bookkeeping client. I'm doing the books for a retail craft store in Stowe. This one client is 12 hours a week so Lauren is a 5 day a week pre-schooler, good thing she loves school.
Ken's sister, Kim and family drove from Ohio in early November. It has been four years since they last visited and everyone was very happy to have them. The cousins had a great time playing together.
Lauren absoultley loves her school and we couldn't be happier!
