The rounds of basketball in the driveway have continued.
Joe generally ends frustrated.
He thinks he should win.
He is definitely more competitive. 
He admitted this week tho that the games help him a lot.

This kid. Lover of stuff - lots of it.
And it turned into this tower
How high could he make it go?  His goal was the shelf above his desk.
He made it!

Just keeping it real.

Same spent more time at the driving range.  He asked me to return his chips to him for more practice,
I was happy to participate.

Unfortunately, robotics is all virtual this year.  The school can't allow volunteers
so our school decided not to participate.  Joe's teacher asked if
the mat and challenges could come to our house instead of not getting used at all.
It's already seen some love!

Cart driver


This summer, I learned that I am useful.
I am useful not only as a a carpool driver
but also as a golf cart driver.
Yes<occasionally, especially hot days when walking the course doesn't
seem great - I get to be the golf cart driver!

And I am good with that.
Quality time with my boys for an $8 fee - Sam has a pass to play.
Outdoors and I get to sneak in a few pics with no argument.
Win, win for this mom.

Wrapping up August Days

It was a warm August.
It was filled with work days and school days.
All of us getting used to a new norm - some days I'm at home and some I'm at work.
The days I'm in the office we have to move a little earlier in the mornings!
We are getting used to wearing masks in public indoor spaces.

Dan and Sam fit in a golf scramble with his friends Todd and Brayten.
It was for Barr Reeve basketball team, a friendly rival to the Lions.
Sam got closest to the pin and won Holiday World tickets.
He was excited about his win.  The tshirt was black and red
but didn't say BR so he said he would keep it, haha!😉😉

For Mother's Day, I picked out this Hydrangea tree, it bloomed beautifully this summer.
The blooms lasted forever and are dried there and still pretty!

We had a fundraiser softball tourney - Dan spent all weekend there umpiring.
Joe loves hanging out around there as well.

I had a fun week at work, training with my high school friend Angie.
She is so darn good at computers - she makes excel look like a breeze!
And a stop at Jenna's bakehouse after a work meeting.
Delicious!

Sam got new irons for golf, so we ran to Evansville
to pick them up - they had him hit on the analyzer 
so they could be sure they were fit correctly.
It was a cool little device.
