Labor Day Weekend

Well, it has been a little while since I posted, but I am back. What a crazy, busy weekend with lots of traveling! Our weekend started by traveling to Lafayette to watch Doug's nephew play football on Friday evening for Harrison High School. Unfortunately, they lost, but he has a great season ahead of him. Then on Saturday, Allison played in the Hall of Fame tournament at Battleground. She, nor her team, played very well. She was disappointed in her performance so Doug helped her practice her irons today. Her senior season is rapidly coming to a close. She is trying to decided where she will play in college as she has a few really nice schools that are interested in her. I shall keep you posted as to what she decides. My guess is that it will be fairly soon.
On Sunday, Doug and I returned home to pick up dogs and head to the lake to help put everything away for the summer. It is quite depressing in actuality! The weather didn't exactly cooperate...in fact this is the first weekend all summer that we needed sweats and sweatshirts. The water temperature dropped dramatically. McKenna spent the weekend with her dad, but popped down to our house for a little while. She was able to ride the jet ski with my cousin, Casey (whom she just loves)!
Doug and I returned this morning after we completed our task of helping put everything in it "winter place". Last Thursday, Doug's jeep (that is probably truly on its last leg) quit working; therefore, we spent this afternoon getting it looked at. Good news...it is only the battery! Maybe that will mean that we can get another 50, 000 miles out of it. LOL! Doug was truly a hilly billy in that he had to jump start the car on Friday morning to get to work and in the South Side parking lot on Friday afternoon while his students got a glimpse of his lovely car. Instead of helping, they just watched and laughed at him. I can only imagine this site. We are very excited that this is a short week and our looking forward to another very busy weekend. Have a happy week! I have posted some pictures of our fun weekend.
