Major roadblock


I went back to work the first week of August and haven't blogged since. Working full time and juggling Lauryn's dance schedule definitely slows down the blogging... So, in order to cover a large amount of time in just a few words, buckle up!


Lauryn has returned to school. She started the year slightly apprehensive because she was not in class with her closest friends. There were a few girls she knew and seeing them at meet the teacher definitely made the transition a little easier. We simply can't believe how big she has gotten!

We have been dancing, dancing, dancing. Lauryn is doing ballet, jazz, and tap. She auditioned for and received a role in the Nutcracker. Lauryn will be a gingerbread this year and can hardly contain her excitement. This also adds two hours of dance into our week.

In addition to dance, Lauryn was cheering again , this time for our friends' 6th grade son. She loves cheering, unfortunately, this season may be short-lived for her because dance has been conflicting with practices and now games.

Our dear tree in the back yard came down recently. It had been sick and finally, we accepted that it was going to die. Tom found someone to remove it and I mourned the loss. We have since replaced it with a disappearing fountain and a magnolia tree. Although I miss the beautiful, old tree, I am thrilled with how the yard turned out.

Finally, going back to work signifies the return of football season. Go Cowboys!
