Dessert

I love fall desserts. Heck, I love any dessert. So when the evenings get cooler we turn the oven on and experiment. Gavin and I made dessert the other night. We tried these pumpkin cheesecake cupcakes. They were delicious. Shane hardly eats dessert so it is usually me and Gavin. But once in a while the next morning I see one missing even though he doesn't confess.

No more football

Last day of football. Gavin's team was in the playoffs but they lost today,

even though they played great!

They got put with the best team in the league.

Good job Jr. Scorps!

Fall is Here

The weather is getting cooler and the leaves are falling. Gavin and I collected some of the leaves from out front yard tree and decorated the inside of the house with leaves.

(The M&Ms in the background are purely for eating, but make a nice decor)

Halloween

Halloween has come to our house and deposited decorations all over. Overkill much?

10 Years Ago

Ten years ago we were blessed with a baby.....

Five years ago we got to see him run around.....

Today our baby is 10. I can't believe it has gone by so quickly.

We are very lucky to be blessed with Gavin.

He is a wonderful boy.

We love him no matter what!

Happy Birthday Gavin! We love you more than words can say!

Berg Park

With no school today, Gavin and I took a trip down to Berg park and rode our bikes.

The trees there seem to be saying that fall is coming too.

More Football

Nothing really happening around here, but school and football.

So another post on football.

Gavin's team is doing great. They lost today, but Gavin had a great TD.

(sorry, not the best quality)

Say It Ain't So

The tree in our front yard is informing us that it wants to change its colors. I'm trying to tell it that it is too soon.

"Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished"

Lao Tzu

One thing about summertime is the great thunderstorms we have. Gavin and I sat outside tonight and watched and listened to them for quite awhile.

Great Game!

This week the jr scorps had another great game. They won this one 20 to 0. Gavin scored 3 touchdowns.

Go scorps!

First Game

Gavin's first football game was great. They played Bayfield and lost, but had fun. Gavin had some good tackles on D and a 20 yard run on offense. He did great!

Go Jr Scorps!!!

Does that mean fall is coming?

Family Visit

My sister, nieces, and dad came to visit us this summer. We had a fun, relaxing time. We went to Aztec Ruins, walked around Durango, went to the river and water shoots at Berg Park, went four wheeling, swimming, played games and made s'mores at the fireplace. It was fun and we are glad they came for our last of the summer fun. (boo for school)
