September 2026

 September was a busy month especially with band!

Mom picked up 20 cases of water (880 lbs! Yes, it was heavy and hard to push the cart!) and 14 cases of soda for concessions from Costco. Here are a couple of pictures.

We went to the band concerts. The first night was the jazz concerts.

Megan playing her solo.

Jazz Maroon. Mr. Bullock said, "What is really cool about this jazz band is that we have a clarinet." Go Megan! Way to make the band cool!
(I don't actually think that is all he intended to say; however, that is how it came out.)

The next night was the concert band concert.

There were several football games the kids played at.

Megan and Matthew (and others) warming up before a game.

Playing at half time. Can you spot Megan and Matthew?

Matthew got a haircut.

Megan won Crumbl Cookies (and Matthew won a gift card) as part of an FSY reading challenge over the summer.

Megan shows off a couple of her ceramics creations.

Her coil pot on display at the school. (The black and cream pot pictured above also spent some time on display.)

The band marching to the football game (as seen from the home side concessions stand).

Megan made sourdough bread at one of her YW activities. We cooked it at home and it was delicious! Megan said, "It is like memory foam you can eat!" 

Megan showing off her Halloween ceramics mug.

The backside of the mug which looks a little more like Christmas then Halloween. Megan is really enjoying her ceramics class.

Me continues going to visit Sarah and Lionheart. She and Lionheart have had so much fun together! He loves pointing out all the planes and birds and big trucks.

Lionheart loves jumping on his trampoline with his blankets.

Lionheart, Sarah and Champion stayed with us for a night so Champion could go to an early morning meeting in the West Valley. It was a last minute trip and a super busy time for us so we did not have a ton of time together. Me did get to go with Lionheart to the park.

Lionheart drawing in the sand with a stick.

Lionheart carrying a bunch of sticks.

He enjoyed having the sticks go down the slide.

Sticks at the bottom of the slide.

Lionheart was excited to see the trash truck.
