Both boys are doing well in school after a bit of an adjustment.  It was tough with both of them moving to new schools and Austin starting Middle School. Things have calmed down now and we are all doing well.

Tyler is beginning scouts next week. He really enjoys the time with his buddies. He has begun AR (Accelerated Reading) at school. He was upset this week because he was place on a reading level lower than he knew he should have been.  After an email to the teacher and librarian, he was placed on a higher level.  The kid LOVES to read!  He's going to do great with AR!   He even got into trouble for taking an AR test on a book WAY above his perceived level at school.  LOL  You can't blame the kid for trying.

Austin is really enjoying football and is doing well.  This past Tuesday was a very exciting game! He ran for a touchdown after catching a pass. Then on the next possession, he was playing QB and tossed it to the kid who had been playing QB previously and he ran it all the way down for another touchdown! It was very exciting!  Especially, since these guys are good friends!

It took a little while for Austin to adjust to Middle School, but he is doing well in his classes and is fitting in nicely. He really loves it.

Mike is as busy as ever. September is his traveling month, so he's been out of town a bit.  I'm just still trying to keep everyone fed, clothed, clean and on schedule.
