Mother-Daughter Date

This summer, I've been reading the Ramona books out loud to Caiden and Cambry (usually just Cambry because Caiden tends to read ahead).  When I saw a poster advertising the play, "Henry and Ramona" I thought it would be fun to take the kids.  Cambry was the only one who wanted to go, however, so we made it into a Mother/Daughter date!

We had a great time, and Cambry told me that the play was "Amazing!"  She also told me that school shopping afterwards was "Amazing," the purple and pink shoes she picked out were "Amazing" and that Freddy's for supper was "Amazing!"  All in all it was a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon - just me and my oldest girl!


We never miss a stop at Freddy's when we are in
Hutchinson!
We generally don't have a huge back-to-school shopping trip, but
I figured out that Cambry had no shoes that fit her - in the tubs
and tubs of shoes that we have, there were none in her size.  She
picked these out right away - definitely "her"!  I couldn't
complain much because they were some of the cheapest on
the shelf!

Choosing Trust Over Fear

I have struggled with writing about the shooting in Hesston - in fact, I wasn't going to post anything about it.  However, for the sake of memories, I decided I should at least touch on it.  It does deserve a place. It just hit so close to home - particularly since Doug was directly involved.  Honestly, I sometimes feel guilty for struggling with this tragedy.  I wasn't there, I didn't lose anyone close to me, and, although I know a few people who work there, I didn't know any of the victims.  And I get to move on with my life with little disruption.  I feel like I am on the outside looking in.   But I guess that's okay.  I didn't have to be directly involved for this to touch me.  My heart is sad for the families of those who died, for those who were injured, for those who witnessed it, for my brother-in-law who will probably replay images over and over, for my sister and my niece and nephew who might sometimes wonder "what if?", for th...

NCAA Division 1 Volleyball Championships

Chelan and I took Delaney to Kansas City for the championship game of the NCAA Volleyball Tournament - a birthday gift given to her in August. What a cool experience! From posing with the trophy to testing her vertical (6th place for all girls who tried!), to watching the match between Texas A&M and Kentucky, to a real life reindeer in the arena, we had a fun day!

Cousin Week

We declared last week "Cousin Week" and went to see Cale, Mace, and Ty play football.  We also watched Addi play volleyball.  Three of those events were on the same day!  I'm sure the girls feel like they have seen enough football to last a long time.  Little do they know - Caiden will be playing in 2 short years and they will have to sit through a lot more of those! We did enjoy watching each one - watching their strengths come through, watching them interact with teammates and coaches.  They are all growing up - just like our own three keep doing!  How does that happen?? Now, if only we could magically appear in California for the other cousins' sports endeavors! Addi - already an 8th grader! Ty, a 5th grader - far right Good teammate Mace, also a 5th grader - #6 Cale, an 8th grader.  #83 (white shirt)
