home sweet home!

6,940 miles in the books! After we left the salt flats we drove for 3 days sleeping in church parking lots for 6 hours two nights.  
The next day we pulled everything thing out of the van and trailer.  It's crazy that we had that much stuff with us! 
We slowly unloaded and got everything ptt away.
Barret sat in the van the whole time like he always does lol we've never left him before so I don't know why he's afraid we will.

First Day of School

Image
August 21, 2023 I usually start school a week or two before the county so we have some wiggle room and can be finished by memorial day but since we were gone so long we started the same day as the county. Jack is in 8th grade.  He still hates school and thinks it's a waste of time.  🙄 I really hope this is the year he accepts that he has to do it and has a better attitude about it.   Kaleb is in 7th grade.  We had a long talk the night before about him being in middle school now and I'm not going to sit beside him all the time and walk him through his work.  🤞 for a good year!  I didn't plan a full jump in the first week and it went really well! The boys didn't argue with me and was only rowdy a little.  Friday, Josh got home early and we went out on the boat.  It was a perfect afternoon! The water was smooth and warm! The boys rode the wakeboards and surfed.  Kaleb has been trying to clear the wake and had a na...

I guess the fall is wedding season now because we had 2 in 2 weekends.  Josh and I were able to celebrate Roman and Teresa's wedding with them and a lot of our neighbors! The day was beautiful and we love their family so much!  Josh left the next day for Nevada for 6 weeks and missed Steph and Kenny's annual birthday party! I love that we celebrate the grown ups birthdays with the kids!  Our BMX team planned a day to go to a new skate park and when we got there there was an event going on that none of us knew about so it was so crowded.  Jack doesn't have a park bike so he brought a skateboard and I was so proud of him for just getting out there and trying even though there were so many people.  He really is growing up!  Then he took his mountain bike out there and had fun with the other kids on bikes Kaleb On Oct 21st we had t...

The last bit of August

Image
Saturday, August 26th was the last VA state Qualifier, so we had to race it so they will be eligible to get State Plates at the end of the Season.  The race was at VMP just south of Richmond.  It's a dirt track that's really bumpy and not well maintained.  Kaleb slid out in the second turn in round 1 and Jack came in 4th abs only top two transferred so they both had to race the next round.  Round two wasn't kind to us.  Kaleb was taking first and slid out and hit another kid.  Izzy stopped to check on Kaleb and Holly and I kept yelling "go Izzy, get first!" LOL. Kaleb was down for a while and in shock for about an hour.  We were very thankful he didn't break anything but it was scary watching him so confused. We kept asking him questions and he couldn't answer some of them.  He couldn't remember how many kids were in his race and kept asking what happened.  He hurt his finger pretty bad and took a handlebar to the gut, but it could have been ...
