The Boone Family

What a beautiful day it was today. After school when we got home we headed out back to play. I grabbed a rake and started to rake a pile. Carter loved it! He was jumping in them. I put Landon's bouncer in the leaves so he could join in the fun. Then Carter decided he wanted to throw the leaves on Landon. I love these fall days when it is warm enough to let the boys play outside!

Bob's dad and stepmother are headed to Florida for the winter so we had "Thanksgiving" dinner up north this past weekend. The leaves are beginning to change colors. It was beautiful and the weather was great. Carter played outside for pretty much the whole day. He was a dirtball. He was so happy with being outside that he didn't even want to take his afternoon nap. He cried almost the whole way back to Bob's mom's house but when he fell asleep he was out!

Brother Love! Landon-10 weeks Carter-16 months The ever growing Boone family So the last post stated how Bob was leaving for LA and I would be with the boys by myself well...my how that changed. About 3 days before Bob left, I found out that my maternity leave sub got a full time position and they were going to hire another sub to finish out my leave. This did not sound like a good idea to me for 2 reasons. One the kids would have 3 different teachers within one year and 2 the parents would not appreciate that at all. So I decided to head back to school about a month sooner than I had planned. This really wasn't as bad as I thought. I had a helper each night that week to help me get the boys around for night time and getting out the door in the morning. (Thanks so much to all of them!) I really missed Bob that week! You forget how well teamwork works when half your team is missing. Going back to school I think was the best thing for all of us because now we have a routine...
