Rodeo and more classic September!

 Boy, September sure went by fast!  We went to the annual Labor Day Parade that is very close to our house, it was fun!

 Sam and I did a Taco Bell date!
 One of the highlights of the rodeo this year was meeting the Schwantz's new puppy, Lucy.  She's a tiny cutie that all the boys adored!
 Hats ready, it's Fort Madison Rodeo time!  First up, the parade!



 Never ceases to amaze me how many kids we all have now!
 Becky was a very brave grandma and did tie dye with everyone!
Rodeo time!  It was a perfect night for the traditional flag fly in!

 Sam's usual highlight, the cotton candy!
 Noah found the funnel cakes and was super pleased!
 Isaac enjoyed seeing all the animals.  It was by far the muddiest year yet!
 Bear Down!
 Gotta line them all up by age again!  Can't wait till next year!
 Isaac's fall activity of choice is indoor swim lessons.  He's still a little fearful, so we thought this would be a good pick.  His teacher, Lexi, is very sweet with him!
 Recent mom gathering, the picture of the moms is funnier than the picture of the kids!
 Mike and I upgraded to new phones, portrait mode FTW!

 Picture day ready!
I was fortunate enough to go to the annual Closing the Gap conference in Minnesota with some awesome coworkers!
 This year was especially neat because we did 2 presentations!  It was a lot of work and practice and nerves, but I think they turned out great!


 It was a long 4 days to be away, but it was fun too!  When I got home we celebrated (my return and the end of a LONG consequence Sam was serving) with a special trip out to the arcade and for ice cream!

 Life is sweet with these guys!
Looking forward to all that October has to offer with Halloween and more!
