Cross Country - Laexin

This year Laexin tried cross country again.  With a new coach, things were much more intense.  He spent most of the summer running every morning and was happy when time came to get to attend the meets.  He was pretty much 'over it' by the end of the season but stuck it out and improved his time nearly every race.  Ended the season with a minute/mile time under 7 minutes and came in 12th at districts.  Next year he swears he is playing football instead😆

Hoopes Family Reunion, Fruita Colorado!

Labor day weekend we headed to Colorado for the annual Hoopes Family reunion.  We were especially excited to spend time with our TX family!

 Instant buddies these two cute cousins!

Had a blast at bananas fun park playing lazer tag, driving bumper cars, arcade games and more!

Only got videos of the fun slip and slide...but these water babies had a blast!

Fun with Friends!

 We had a Fun day at Cleggs pond with friends, the kids swam and played their little hearts out...Just trying to soak up every last bit of sunshine!

 

 Linq was so excited to get to spend a day playing with sweet little Kate Stoddard and loves having her in his school class...even if she doesn't share his sentiments 😄

Back to School 2019!

And just like that school started!  It's always good to get back on a schedule BUT I REALLY wasn't ready to say goodbye to summer this year.  It was such a fun time making so many memories and I just don't want winter to come!  Plus, these three are now FULL TIME schoolers - with one in Jr. High...how did that happen??!

 The week after the three older started, Linq had his first day of pre-school, what?!?  It's been so good for him and he absolutely LOVES school but I'm having a hard time watching my little buddy grow up so fast!
