Summer is almost here!

So we have been busy as usual. Both boys have finished up with school and are enjoying the summer. Swimming lessons and baseball, Bible schools and visits to grandma and Pappy's camp on the horizon. Here are some pictures... Kaleb with his teacher, Mr. Tewksbury, Kohen with his, Miss Lori (pronounced Wor-wee) and some videos of them, biking, batting and in the rain and mud playing! They had so much fun! Kohen has also learned to ride his bike and quickly chases Kaleb down! What a great summer we are going to have!!! God Bless until next time...Enjoy the pics and videos!

A long time gone...

So it has been a while but here are some pictures and videos. I am the worst blogger! Darn you Facebook! This is from Easter.
Kaleb is playing Coach Pitch again this year. Coach Mat is back for more with sidekick/batboy Kohen. He calls himself, "the Batman!"

The boys playing/gardening. Check out the videos of Koey rototilling and Kaleb climbing! They love the camera. Koey is a worker like his dad and Kaleb would play all day long!

Kaleb finished his first season of soccer, U6. Mat and I were team parents, but Mat did all the work because of my eye "stuff". He is a great coach and his team did really well. Kaleb is already ready for another sports season to start up again!

Here are the kids when The Mahonskis came for a visit. It is always great to see them again. The kids act like their was no time lost and they have an awesome time playing together.

Carving pumpkins was fun, they did almost all of their own carving this year. Koey is a bit out of control with his carver, but he got the job done for the most part. Kaleb learned at school that you can keep the seeds for next year's pumpkins so we'll have a lot more to carve next year I guess :)! I know my eyes are closed but the rest of the gang looks good and really my eyes usually aren't open much further anyway!
The front porch is a glow and our Steelers pumpkin brought another win. It just might be there until February.

Mat and the boys on our hayride to get Pumpkins!

The front porch ready for Halloween and Football Season!

Mat and Koey enjoying the Carolina breeze!

Us next to the wild horses of Corolla, I know at this point there's a fence in the picture, but if you look to the left there is a break in the fence, where the horses then came walking closer to us. At that point I made the kids get closer to the truck...just in case. We went four wheeling in Pappy's truck on the beach in order to be able to see them and it was totally worth it!Kohen at his first day of Preschool. He was so excited for me to drop him off. No looking back for him. His teacher had to keep saying, "Say goodbye to your mom." He was just ready to get on with the day and be a big boy like his brother.

Back in the swing of things upon returning from vacation. We had a great week in Corolla with Pappy and Grandma Miller and our friends Beth, Michael and Dominic. Kohen and Kaleb are already ready to go back. Aren't we all!

I had my first eye surgery on Monday. The next one is tomorrow morning and then look out everyone! I will actually be able to see. From the repeated steroid use after the eye diseases, I had developed a cataract on my right eye and had it removed with vision correcting lenses. So being thirty-one with cataracts, the benefit is I no longer have to wear my lovely "Spectacular Spec-tackles" as we call them.

Kaleb is LOVING school. He is becoming quite the eco-warrior thanks to his teacher and he was even disappointed to learn that he had a long weekend! I wonder where he gets that from...no comments Tiffany! Tomorrow he will play in his last soccer game too for the fall. His team really does well considering Mat and I are the team parents and we know NOTHING about soccer. Luckily at the age, they just kick the ball around, basically no rules and no goalie! That much we could handle.

So I am hoping that this post finds all of you well ...until next time. Blessings!

First Day of Kindergarten

So the day is here. Kaleb started kindergarten and he could not have been more excited. I, on the other hand, am still wiping away tears. Koey and I will have to learn to adjust without our Dubbers. Here are the pictures.

Lots going on in the Meyer house.

Sorry again for the long lapse in blogs...We have been busy here doing a lot of little projects. We have had a couple of rounds of company, for which we are thankful. If not for the visitors it would be a while before we would see the family. No plans to go back to the Burgh for a little while.

So what has been happening. We are once again homeowners of only one home. We closed here on the house in July and are loving where we are. I am glad that God knows better than I because he has perfectly placed our family. Who knows where we would have ended up if I had been in control:).

This summer we planted a garden, built a new swing set, helped Aunt Buddy and Uncle TJ move (a couple of times), started working and working out at the YMCA, did some lanscaping and decorating at the house and just hung out. I has been a great summer.

Kaleb and Kohen are both getting ready to start school. Kohen will go two days a week to preschool and Kaleb - all day KINDERGARTEN! I can not believe it. The teacher has assigned him as a reading coach to help the other kids. He is even going to get his own whilstle. He just keeps talking about the first day and can not wait. They are both so excited. Mom, however, is probably going to have a nervous breakdown!!!

The Little League World Series begins tomorrow with the Parade, which our MOPS group will be in and then it is a couple of games here and there, when we can make them.

Kaleb will also start soccer and we are undoubtedly READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL. Here we go Steelers! Here we go!

Well I hope all are well and I will post some more pictures this evening.
