Please keep her in your thoughts. I just really hope we get some answers so we can come up with a solution.

Procedure day for Kinsley
Kinsely and I chose to come down last night to the Children's Hospital to prepare for her bronchoscopy procedure this morning. We have to be at the hospital at 6:45 a.m. and with it being a two hour drive, I did not feel like waking the beast from her sleep to drive in the dark on curvy, hilly roads.

Pumpkin Farm 2012
Finding a good pumpkin farm around this place is HARD!!! We had an awesome pumpkin farm we visited yearly in Georgia, and our hopes were high. After a lot of research and surveying we finally found a farm (new this year) that was perfect for our three.

End of soccer season (woot - woot!)
He has good form - but was the runt of the group
The runner
Was obsessed with his hair color - this was the same evening our power was out
The runt was best at goalie
Medal time!

Performance team
Addyson really enjoys many activities and wants to try them all, and we let her as long as there are no conflicts.
Back in August, I signed her up for dance and was approached about signing her up for performance team as well, which is not competition. Performance team is the younger version of competition and essentially a much smaller group of kids. They learn one routine and will perform it at a variety of events throughout the year.
Well.....soccer season started after dance registration. Practices were each on separate days, so we were all set. But, I wasn't informed that the games would be on different days than practice. Of course games ended up being on the same day as performance team practice and she went to soccer over dance. The main lady in charge of the entire program said she could just join rift back in after soccer ended.
Today was her first day back, and her teacher and the head lady welcomed her and were so excited to see her and even after practice did a private class for her to learn the routine. She has her first performance in just a couple of weeks, and I really thought that she would not be joining this performance with how late she has rejoined, but her instructor was very impressed with how quickly she was picking up the steps and feel at this point she should perform.
We shall see how she does at next week's practice and if I can get her to practice any at home.

Bedding - kid edition
All three of my kiddos have a quilt, each unique to them.
Addyson has had her quilt since she received her twin bed around 15 months. It's on it's last leg and needs some updating.
She currently has this one Her decorations in her room match these colors, and she has pink curtains. It must be girly, it must have some pink, and I would prefer a quilt. But, I am thinking the quilt hunt is going to be over and I am going to have to settle on a comforter. Those that have comforters - how long do they last?

A breather
Soccer season is over, and thus my life is slowly coming back. No longer will we be rushing to and from school, home, practices, and games. It was exhausting keeping up with practices and games and giving up every single Saturday. It was our first season, and Addyson and Eligh had a blast and declared they want to play again. I declare soccer a success.
From now until spring I will only be toting the girls to and from dance class two times a week. Addyson will be going twice a week and Kinsley once a week. Unfortunately, Cody will be heading out for training for six weeks soon and thus, Eligh will have to start tagging along. I have been spoiled with all Cody's help for quite some time and am really not looking forward to doing it all on my own again.
For now, though, I am going to enjoy this much needed break from all the running to and from and actually eating dinner at a normal dinner time, versus either an hour early or an hour or so later than normal. I have even taken advantage of hitting the gym up a couple times a week after dinner.
Anyone else getting a break from the fall sports?
