August 2009
Well, here it is almost the end of August and I'm just now getting around to August news! lol The 7th of August Ed and I celebrated 20 years of marriage!! We went out to eat that evening and rode around in the vette for a while. The 8th, Jordan had a trap shoot. She did awesome!! She's in 1st place in class b. Pretty good for her first year and for competing against all those older boys!!! The following weekend, Ed and I went to Colorado Springs for our anniversary. The girls stayed with their friend Janelle. We had a great time. Did some sight seeing and some shopping. Just enjoyed the weekend together.
The girls started school on the 12th. They are really enjoying it. They already knew a few kids and they have already made a ton of new friends. They have both already had lunch "dates" with boys. OMG - NOT READY FOR THIS!!! lolllllll Jordan went out to eat one day with a boy in 8th grade. His name is Bonner. Dakota on the other hand now has a full fledged boyfriend. They have gone out to eat together everyday this week. They are constantly texting or calling or emailing each other. But - she's pretty heartbroken already - today is his last day at school. He's moving to CA. His name is Brandon and he's also an 8th grader. They'll be able to stay in touch through texts, calls, and email of course, but it's not the same. So she's pretty bummed about that!!
Tomorrow is Bryce's 19th birthday!! Hard to believe I have a 19 year old. I just can't be that old! lollll I'm going to Shattuck to see him and take him out for lunch tomorrow. He has to work, so I'll only get to see him for an hour for his lunch break, but guess that is part of being a grown up and out on your own. Gotta work and pay the bills! lol
Saturday (29th) the girls have their first cross country track meet. It's at Watonga. Ed and I won't be able to go, he's working this weekend. I have to have the girls at the school by 4:15 Saturday morning to catch the bus. Gonna make for a long day for them and me! lolll I'm anxious to find out how they do!!
Grandma Margie and Grandma Jordan both came for a visit this month. Grandma Margie stayed one night and we had a really good time!! We sure enjoyed her. Grandma Jordan stayed for two nights and we really enjoyed her too!! I'm so lucky to still have both of my Grandmas that are able to go and do so many things!!
Well, I think that about catches everyone up for August. I'll post some CO pics in another thread. I'll try and update again for September next week. My calendar is already full for the month of Sept. lol

Red River
Yesterday we decided to take a road trip to Red River, NM. It's about 4 hours out there so we left around 7:00 and headed that way. It was a lot of fun. We did some sight seeing and just enjoyed the drive and the scenery. Poor Jordan though, something got her allergies going and she ended up with some sort of pollen like stuff all over her contacts after our first stop and first hike down to take some pictures. She was miserable, ended up having to take her contacts out and didn't have her glasses, so she spent the rest of the day not being able to see very well (lucky girl can't see past the end of her nose without her glasses, just like her mom!!). She ended up having a horrible headache of course and just not a real fun trip. But she was such a trooper, she still hiked with us, and made the best of it and never complained!! We also met up with some friends out there and had lunch and did some shopping and Ed and Brent rode the go-karts. The girls were going to but since Jordan couldn't see well, she decided to wait until next time! lol We're gonna make another trip out there soon and hopefully this time she will really be able to enjoy it!!!

7-6-09
Things are still pretty busy around here, although July should be somewhat easier! The girls still have cross country and open gym, but softball is officially over for this season. They ened up with 3rd place for the season and 2nd place in the tournament.
We didn't get to go to Laverne for the 4th like we had hoped, Ed had to work Saturday morning and stick around in case something happened that afternoon and evening. We really didn't do much of anything all weekend, just hung out at home. Ed got the trap shooting field all laid out for Jordan. So she can really get serious now! lol She's got another trap shoot this coming Saturday and if she does as well there as she has been at home, she's gonna kick some butt!! lol
The girls are both doing great with running cross country, they run their 2 miles every morning and then usually run again of an evening. Even though softball is over, Dakota is going to continue to meet with her pitching coach (only met with him once so far) throughout the year. She's gonna meet with him once a month until around Jan or Feb. probably and then start going twice a month to get ready for next season. She's pretty excited about it.
Ed's been staying busy and still loving his job. We've got another car show coming up in September that we plan on taking the vette to. Should be fun!!
Bryce finally got a full time job and he's really enjoying it. He's working for a local contractor in Shattuck and doing all sorts of things from remodling houses to welding. He's staying pretty busy!! Didn't get to see him on the 4th, as he stayed in Shattuck to help out the other volunteer firemen put on all the festivities in Shattuck that day!!
Not really much of anything else going on right now, just the same old thing around here. lol I can't believe that this summer is almost over though, school starts in about 5 1/2 weeks!
