August 4-Oct 7

End of Summer 2017 :-(

San Francisco in August.  You may see this one again on our Christmas card!

We had a last minute garage sale because Stephen wanted to earn some cash for a baseball card show in Sacramento in Sept.  I think this is at least the 5th time we've used these signs!


Steve and I had a rare date night.... Lady Gaga in AT&T Park in SF.  The night before school started.  Such bad parenting!

First Day of School.  Kids survived!





Monterey on Labor Day Weekend.  That water was COLD!

The real reason Chris wanted to go to Monterey.  

A frozen coke can that exploded in the refrigerator.  This failed to impress my brother, but I thought it was pretty interesting.


Both boys were captains for their first football games of the season.  Chris is #34, I don't have a picture of Stephen's game.



Stephen and a few of his friends were coaches for the Powder Puff flag football game (the 8th grade football players coach the 8th grade cheerleaders....  my boy is growing up!)






Unfortunately a good friend of my parents passed away late September.  I was able to get away, so I flew back for the memorial service.  It was sure good to see them and Matt, but sad circumstances.

Boots can often be found on Stephen's bed.  This time under the covers.





Homecoming was this weekend (Oct 7th).  Poor Chris got voted Homecoming Prince for his squad.  Ha!  Chris is a good inch taller than I am now.....

Thank goodness all our friends and family in Florida and on the east coast made it through the hurricanes.  Very scary, and I'm sure you are still dealing with some of he after effects.  THANK YOU Uncle Rich for providing updates.
