birthday, beach, baseball and other updates :)

Hey! How is it already Fall?? Life is good, and time is flying. So jump back to a couple weeks ago...we ended up at the doctor, just a few days of fever, but I wanted to make sure we didn't need meds because we had a big birthday weekend ahead! :) 

Can you guess who was actually sick and who just HAS to do everything the other person does?! These two continue to get closer and have even more fun the older Emerson gets and it is so fun to watch. 

Easton is off to such a great start in Kindergarten! On green everyday, reading his sight words, making 100s on all of his tests so far. I am so proud of him. Most of all, he seems to really be enjoying it and making some good friends. 

We made it to the home depot workshop and I thought I would get Emerson a project too, knowing she would like the painting part. I felt silly asking for a kit for her since she is so little, but they busted out the apron and Emerson did not move from her bucket and had a big smile hammering and painting. I am excited they can both enjoy the workshops from now on! In the past, it was Easton doing the workshop and Emerson wanting to run up and down the aisles. 

Even though it is fall, it is still in the 90s and humid! So, we continue to enjoy beach trips on the weekends. ♥

So, we had a random and unexpected 4 day weekend! When hurricane Irma made it's way through Florida, we were not in the path, but they closed all schools in the state to use as shelters. I decided to take Emerson to Ms. Faith and have a day with just me and my boy. It was awesome! We ate at Chick-Fil-A, 

and went to the Wahoos baseball game. 

Easton was asked to brush off home plate to start the game :) 

Then that Saturday was a beautiful birthday party day!! Yay! 

We had it at our house with a water slide this year. 

Watching Easton beaming and playing with his friends was the best thing ever! It was the first year where he made the invite list. In the past, it was usually our friends and their kids...well now, it was his friends from Kindergarten and sports. I was meeting parents for the first time :) They did the water slide, trampoline, had a water balloon fight, ate Popsicles, pizza, and cake. Happy 6th birthday my sweet boy! 

Then the next day, we went out to dinner and the beach with my family. My uncle Johnny was in town from Colorado. 

They all look so big! :( 

Love my family! 

Friday evening at the beach. Ahhh

 Finally, this past Saturday we started soccer games! Easton is in the U8 league and the age cutoffs make it to where he is the youngest one playing with almost 8 year olds, but he is holding his own! I don't have a bunch of pictures to post like I normally would from my camera because I am coaching this season. Oh boy! My dad is doing it with me which is nice, but no more sitting and enjoying the games for now. Go Hedgehogs! :) 

My babies ♥ 

Have a good week!
