September Wrap Up Post

Okay...

so I am finally going to put September to rest here on the blog.  I have been 'behind' for so very, very long that I even feel a bit confused about what month I am in!   :)

Jonathan has been working hard all month long on designing and building various costumes for the boys annual Halloween party.  He is so creative and makes really cool stuff using paper, insulation, EVA foam and etc.

What Jackson's Chemistry class looks like...

I am so thankful that my Daddy is working with Jackson on Chemistry this year.
What a relief for me and what a blessing for Jackson (and, I think, for Daddy, too.)   :)

I spied Jackson out taking photos one evening and had to smile.

I like this one... 

And he spotted me!   :)

One of the photos Jackson took that evening of Mac.

This was a pretty incredible sunset.  I spent a lot of time on the front porch just watching it.

Ummmmm.... I think the shirt is appropriate?  And I just don't even
know what to say about all the rest of it.   :)

Showing off his throwing knives that he got at Silver Dollar City.   :D

My boy, stylin'   (disclaimer - he gave me permission to post these goofy photos.)   :D

Red Barn Festival is one of the highlights of September around here.  It is an outdoor arts and crafts festival downtown and brings in artisans from around the state and the region.  In addition, there are local dancers and musicians who perform.  Megan and Melina were among those performers.  Those girls are so multi-talented!

And then Melina (on the left).  Those girls are flexible!!
