Summer Don't Go

 Schools supplies are out and summer seems to be winding down.  We'll have TWO kids in high school and ONE in college.  Miles will be in the same building, just a different area as he enters in his freshman year at South Warren.  I'm going to be honest, I'm thankful he will be on block scheduling and only have four (4) classes compared to seven (7) in middle school.  In one week, Isaac will take his road test for his drivers license and begins his junior year shortly after.  Karson has selected her University of Louisville move in date for August 20th.  She will leave for Louisville over the weekend and plans to do nursing observations next Monday.

 

The kids had fun at Franklin CC's 4th of July festival!

Our weekdays and weekends seem to be filling up quickly.  Tournament golf has occupied most of Miles's time.  He played in multiple Go Golf and Bluegrass Tours and did well.  He's been practicing a lot at my parents house.  My dad has mowed down a nice area for him to practice his swing.  He's also been working hard at Franklin Country Club.  We joined the club about two months ago and love it.

 

SWHS boys golf tryouts are currently underway.  He's been working hard and performing well.

Isaac's summer came to abrupt halt after his first club lacrosse tournament.  He took a hit to the collarbone in pool play and turns out it was actually cracked.  He was in a sling for about two weeks trying to keep it stable.  It put a huge damper on fun, and he had to quit the Vandals!!!  

 

He's about six weeks post injury and feeling good.  He, Karson, Evan and Samuel went to Holiday World yesterday.  I was a bit worried he might be in pain because some of those coasters beat you to death, but he was fine.  He plans to go white water rafting with Greenwood Park's youth group this weekend.  He's making the most of the last few days of freedom.

Karson competed in the state track meet earlier this summer and was selected to represent the SWHS girls basketball team at Kentucky Super Preps at the Hot Rods stadium.  Both events culminated her sports chapters at South.

 

She's been putting in a lot of hours at Waterworks and saving money for college.  Her pile of dorm stuff grows by the minute.  It's a rare occasion for her to get a weekend-day off, but she was off last Saturday.  We scooped up Elizabeth and had a girls day in Nashville.  We ate at Big Bad Breakfast and did some shopping at Lululemon in the Gulch.  

Fun at Flealand while the girls are in Nashville!

Matt and his brothers were able to get away to the lake a few weeks ago.  They had a good time on Andrew's boat and attempting to wake surf.
