Time Flies

It is my goal to start this blog again.  It is hard to believe that it has been so long since my last post.  I now have a 5th grader and a freshman in high school.  I am sad about the things I have missed blogging about along the way, but excited to start again to track their accomplishments and also track us as a family.  There are so many things going on with my boys and I want to remember each and every thing they do because time goes too fast.

Connor is currently in driver's ed classes and will turn 15 in two weeks.  Both Cody and Connor are still playing hockey and are doing well.  Connor has finished his youth hockey career and will play high school hockey next year.  Cody is playing at the highest level in his age group and is having a great time playing goalie.  I am so proud of both of them.  I will post some photos in future blog posts.

Time Flies

Hard to believe it has almost been a year since I posted anything.  At that time I had good intentions of posting more regularly to capture things going on throughout the year.  Well, I am going to try again. We are getting close to another new school year.  Connor is a senior!  I am still trying to wrap my head around it.  The time has gone so fast.  We went to several open houses for friends of his that graduated this year.  It makes me sad even though I know it is a part of life.  Part of starting up this blog again is to help me put my feelings down as we go through the journey of life.  Cody is starting 8th grade.  One last year of middle school. Both boys make me so proud.  They both continue to play hockey.  Cody is still a goalie and does such a good job in a tough position.  Me, on the other hand...being a goalie mom is not easy.  Almost a year ago my grandma moved in with us.  I am blessed to stil...

Man to Man

Cody is in his last year of elementary school.  It is also that time of year when the 5th graders will learn about family life and human sexuality.  Oh boy.  I had to sign the permission slip yesterday for Cody to return indicating that we are of aware of the information that he will be learning about.  As parents, we are encouraged to have open communication with them regarding this if they happen to have any questions or concerns.  I asked Cody if he had anything he wanted to ask, and he quickly responded "No!"  I said, "that's okay, you can always talk to your dad about it too" to which he replied, "yes, man to man."  I said yes, like that.  He cracks me up!

First Day of School 2018

School started a week earlier this year which was a bit of a change.  We survived the first week and things went smoothly.  Of course as a  mom I always wants a first day of school picture.  Connor isn't especially thrilled to have his picture taken, but did pose for a quick one.  Of course his smile is a bit cheesy because he wasn't happy about the photo, but I guess I at least got one.  I am proud of my boys and am so blessed.  With the first week of school already came the reality of ordering a cap and gown for Connor's graduation.  I am going to enjoy every moment of this year.  Cody's birthday is coming in two days and he will be 14!  Again, how can this be??  They are turning into such nice young men.  That is my goal.  Raise them to be good people, to be kind, caring and have manners and of course who respect.  I think we are ready for the 2nd week of school.
