Candles

With 4 kids it means lots and lots of handmade candles for me.  I love each and every one so much I took pictures so I could save them forever.  I think most of these were made on weekends at campouts for Indian Princesses and Guides.  I tear up thinking about how excited each of the kids were to give my candle.  Oh my heart!

Kicking off Fall Soccer

And just like that, soccer has started for the Fall.  The boys started with a tournament for Fisher with U14 and Tate and Fisher had a U12 tournament.  It is good to be back cheering on my favorite 2 soccer players.

First IHSA Swim meet for Harper

I love that Harper is in HS and we can still have firsts with her.  This was her first High School swim meet at Fenwick.  I don't have her official IHSA scores but the unofficial looks great.

Life may not get better for Tate as he got to sit with Peter and "help."  He so loves Harper and thinks she is just the coolest ever and so wants to be like her.  She may not fully see it now but hope she looks back and sees that he always cheers her on!
