Is it Already Fall?

Time seems to moving faster than ever and my kids are growing so quickly. Work has been keeping me super busy, but the kids come with me to as much as possible. They are definitely going to grow up in the Ag department, but at least they tell me they have fun. I'm the trap coach this year so that keeps me rather busy aside from other FFA activities.
The past couple of weekends we've traveled back and forth to Jefferson City to visit the family and to take Tyler's senior pictures, I'm by no means a professional photographer, but I think they're pretty happy with the results! :)
The kids have learned how to pedal their tricycles so that's been a huge accomplishment over the last few weeks and they're so proud of themselves, it's the best to watch them this summer going on their trikes or driving around the little gator and truck. I'll admit I've fallen behind on doing good at taking their picture and videos so I plan to try to improve that, I'm afraid if I don't get those things to document their life right now I won't remember all the little things I want to which is partly why I try to do the blog to have a record of things for them, I just need to start making time for everything I want to do and quit going with the flow on the nights/weekends at home I guess, but I just don't have much left for free time anymore. Being a working mom is way more difficult than I thought, I mean balancing my time that is. I suppose I should have chosen a profession that is less demanding on my time as I frequently am doing things for it on nights and weekends, but I do love what I'm doing and all my "kids" at school.
This week we're thinking of going to buy the newest blackberry's for me and Andy, we'll see, I'm not sure I'm sold on the idea of getting new phones.....
We are also looking to buy a new vehicle for me soon I think, so I'm looking forward to that, just not the payments! We're hoping to build next spring I guess, at least that's what we've decided for now unless the perfect place comes up for sale. We definitely need a new place that's for certain!
The kids and I are in my friend Angela's wedding in a couple of weeks, I hope they do okay, it'll be their first big performance like that and they're kinda shy so we'll see!
Went ahead and decided to put out my fall/halloween decorations, the kids were so excited and it feels so much like fall I couldn't resist. I have to admit I really like this cooler weather!
