Sep 4 - 10

Monday, September 4 - Simon has been working hard trying to get our downspouts buried after doing the cement. He has dug a hug trench out to the rock wall to have the water divert as far away from the house as possible. While he was outside working on that, I was busy organizing all of my nail supplies. It doesn't seem like it should but it took forever to paint all the colors on the little fake nails that go in this new nail book I bought. I'm excited to have it all organized now though!

Tuesday, September 5 - Zack had a midday orthodontist appointment and my children seem to think they get a treat every time we go to the ortho. (That's my fault. I always take them for a treat. 😄) I did really well on my new health plan. I got Zack an ice cream but I didn't indulge. He's such a great kid though, he deserved a treat!

Wednesday, September 6 - Mom and dad had a ton of tomatoes this year. It may be their best crop yet! Mom said she's done canning them so she sent me the rest. I am happy to can them to have tomatoes all winter! Look how many jars I ended up with. Yay!

Thursday, September 7 - Nick asked Sescily to HOCO. They will have a blast!! :)

Friday, September 8 - Simon, Nick, and Zack had the annual "Crawdad Cookout" campout tonight. They go and catch crawdads, cook them up with other veggies and meats, and lay it all out on a table. Yum...not. :) I'm glad they enjoy doing it though!

Saturday, September 9 - Zack and Simon had a soccer game this afternoon. No rest for the campers! It worked out fine though because we won this game 4-1! Simon surprised me, after making a stop at Costco, with this garbage can! It doesn't look like much but I have been wanting one for a while now. The small can under our kitchen sink just isn't big enough for our large family so I am so excited to start using this giant one! Thanks babe! 

Sunday, September 10 - We had Sunday dinner at the Pearson's this week and look how adorable this picture is! Zack loves little kids and little kids love him too! Love them!
