Back to School Shopping



School starts tomorrow for both Travis and Emily. Emily is only going to teach for one week, so her class gets to know her as their teacher and so she can set up some rules/expectations. After that first week of school she will have five weeks of maternity leave. It will be hard to drop off the little guy at a baby sitter, but we are sure that he will survive. Travis went shopping and all of his students a notebook and folder for his class. The lady at Walmart had to ring up each item individually so that it would take it off the inventory. It took a long time to ring up the whole transaction and made for a long receipt. We are both excited, yet nervous for school to start.


Soccer Championship

Travis played on a co-ed soccer team this summer with two of his brothers and two cousins. It was really fun for him to be on a team again. He missed five games in the middle of the season due to his broken finger, but was able to return for the championship game. Really he just wanted to show up for the last game and get a medal. Their team tied 1-1 in regulation (Brian scored the goal) and in the shoot out Dustin (Cousin) made the winning goal. The Ninja Turtles are back to back champions.
