Happy Fall, ya'll!! :)

Oh wow...I've done it again...or maybe NOT done it again...sorry for my bad blogging!  Thanks to my Aunt A, I am inspired to FINALLY update this baby!

We're doing well!  I can't believe it will be October tomorrow!  Eek!  Bear Cub is doing so great in first grade...making awesome grades, behaving himself, and just enjoying his days at school.  We couldn't be happier!

This year, I am the Volunteer Coordinator for the school's PTSO Board.  So on some days, I feel like I have a full-time, UNPAID job there!  It's great though...I love to see BC during the school day and I really enjoy getting to know so many of the folks that work there.  I'm not working part time anymore for the virtual school, so I am happy to help at his school, sub when needed, and then enjoy some time to myself, too!

The holidays are right around the corner now... I have an idea for BC's Halloween costume (you know how he loves to challenge my creativity each year!) and I'm even starting to make a Christmas list for him.  My goal is to stay away from so much "stuff" at Christmas.  BC still LOVES fishing, so I think we'll probably have a lot of new fishing equipment after the holidays.

One thing we're looking forward to...a Disney cruise coming up very soon!!  :)  We've never done Disney for cruising and this will also be BC's first bon voyage.  I think he's getting excited, too!  It's a 3-nighter, so it will be a good test run for a longer cruise in the future (if all goes well!).

I'll try to be better about blogging... but for now, know that all is well and we're just busy lil bees around here!!  Happy Fall!

 Awesome needle fish catch!  He was THRILLED!




 We've had some gorgeous beach days!
 BC holding our first Fall leaf!  We watched it float from the tree on the first day of Fall.  :)
 Always with a pole or net in hand!

 Girls weekend in Indianapolis!  My pics are out of order here... but here we are, friends since elementary school.  We had an awesome time together!
 Cute lil frog catch before school one day
 Tiny shower or GIANT boy?

 Here's the original 4 ... back on my 14th birthday!
 BC loved all the rain we had...it floods out part of a local trail and he loves to catch tadpoles!  We saw lots turn into frogs!


  I want that cute fountain for my garden....



 He loved "TTT (Triple T)" a little turtle we saved from the road.  We kept it for 2 days, then released it near one of our ponds.
 BC's first catfish catch!

 One cool dude at Legoland
 Silly boy...thought it was SO funny to close his eyes on purpose on the morning of the first day of school. 




 Nature walk at Suwannee River State Park

We celebrated Mimi's birthday in Gainesville...fun day!
