September and Such

An obligatory post to report about September...  Clearly, I don't really mourn the passing of September like I do July.  I don't believe any teacher has ever hoped that September would continue on...not to wish my life away...but you know.

Celebrating September birthdays in the Bend over Labor Day

My Papa and I built a valence for my mom's kitchen.  He really did everything, I just pretended to help.  But somehow I still had a sense of accomplishment when we finished.

Sorry the only "finished" shot also showcases my booty...I like big...valences and I cannot lie.

Impromptu visit from Nathan and Brooke made the weekend even more eventful!

Grandma Sauder and Dad

Other things that my phone says we were up to in September...

An afternoon drive!

Cade started his second year of preschool, 3-days a week for this year.  We are breaking him in little by little.  He is really enjoying Ms. Amy's "Kanga Class."

Cade is playing soccer through Olathe Parks & Rec...mainly because I missed the t-ball deadline.  Wah, wah, parenting fail.  But, he is loving soccer and we enjoy watching him.  He takes it very seriously!

And Reese is a very serious fan.

Reese went to the cutest little Mermaid-themed birthday party where they made these fun little outfits.  So cute.  Mandy throws amazing birthday parties!!

Sometimes we go to Wal-Mart or Toys R Us for fun...is that weird?

Almost wedding time!!  Flower girl and ring bearer in training!

Reese had a little run-in with the driveway...good thing she's so tough!

Cade wanted to commemorate his tattoo from Beckett's party.  He said I had to take a picture of it before we could wash it off.

So there's our random September!  Blog post...check!!
