A September to Remember

 

We are less than one, I repeat ONE, month away from our eldest getting her learner's permit.  Karson has been practicing in our neighborhood for months though.  We never let her go far or very long, but she's been eager to drive.  Her Pap got her a GMC Terrain, and she loves it!  I know I will be a giant stress-ball when she's out driving on her own, but I am looking forward to having an additional driver in the house.  She's been using the study app and going to borrow the 80-page booklet from a friend to study for the big exam in October.  Fingers crossed she doesn't go Les Anderson on the test.  Some of you 80's babies will get that reference =).

Oh how time flies - can't help but think back to 2007 when Karson was a JEEP Powerwheels riding machine!

 

Volleyball season is coming to a close.  Karson's big JV tournament is tonight.  It's a quick season, and more than anything, I'm thankful for the social bonds Karson has created with this group.  Sometimes there's a bigger connection than the sport itself, and I'm grateful for the friends she's gained through playing both volleyball and basketball.

GHS hosted a PINK OUT tournament on September 20 and raised over $1300 for the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund Alliance.

Karson and some of her volley-buddies at the Migos/Drake Concert last Tuesday!

 Speaking of concerts, we got see Cage the Elephant, BG's own, host a free concert on WKU's South Lawn for the opening Hilltopper football season.  Matt Schultz sure can put on a show.  It was packed and an exciting way to kick off the first home game.

In conjunction with the opening game, the Budweiser World Famous Clydesdales also made an appearance in Bowling Green.  They were housed in our back parking lot at SKyPAC.  It was neat walking out back and seeing all the horses and handlers. 

Is there anything more entertaining than Ghostbuster props?  I'm not sure?!? I certainly had more fun than expected at Orchestra Kentucky's Ghostbusters press conference at SKyPAC. 

The golf bug comes and goes with this one, but Miles currently loves playing.  He's SO good too.  Hope he can rise above his frustration with the sport and play in Middle and High School.  However these three peas in pod (below) sure have a fun time together, relaxing with Baby Bottle Pops, and being slugs on the couch.
