Connor Made a Travel Basketball Team, Maci Made it to Semi Final, Kellie went to NYC & Kaylen Visits!

Weekdays:
  • Monday - Kids had at home learning day which means they basically hung around the house and annoyed Clint while he tried to work.  That evening Maci had soccer practice while Connor had a flag football game.  Connor and his team did great!  Maci had a good practice with ice cream after a big come from behind W on Sunday.  I watched the Bengals game and almost wished I hadn’t - urgh - figure this out!
  • Tuesday - I headed out of town to NJ/NYC with one of my business leaders to visit a pharmacy and meet with a company we are looking to purchase.  The pharmacy we visited was really great and then we had a yummy dinner with some good cocktails!  Maci had practice at night and seemed super excited for how she showed up against some older girls.
  • Wednesday - We had good meetings with the target company leadership team and then flew back home.  I landed around 5p and Clint ran Maci to soccer before meeting up with Connor at flag football.  Football did well and I had fun seeing my Maci girl do her thing after being away for 2 days.  That night we got a super special email!  Connor made 1 of 2 travel basketball teams - that means he was one of 20 kids out of 54 to get on a team!!!  He was one of only two Greenwood kids to make the team.  We are so proud of him and he seems pretty proud of himself!
  • Thursday - I had a super busy day back in the office but was nice to be back home and in normal routine.  Connor had baseball practice at night and our neighbors took him to and from b/c Clint was doing the prep for his first colonoscopy.  Maci also went to a dance class with her neighborhood friend Livi.  While they were gone doing this, my nephew Kaylen and his family swung by our house for a late pizza dinner around 7p.  We were so excited to see their new baby Amelia and to catch up with Matthew - big boy!  They left on the road to her dad’s house around 930p.
Maci is so good with the kiddos

She loved holding baby Amelia
Friday
  • Crazy busy morning!  I started working to help my friend/former co-worker Nicole, then I dealt with an urgent need for Optum Health, then Clint and I were off to his appointment.  No sooner did Clint head back for his procedure, I was running to Greenwood to see Connor’s Grizzly Dash.  I got to see him cross the finish line, take some pics and then head right back to Clint.
  • Clint had a pretty easy in and out procedure and we were heading home by 11a.  We grabbed an early lunch from Oak Eatry on the way home as Clint was starving.
  • I got some calls and work done while Clint rested.
  • Maci got home around 445p and we were off to get our nails filled together.
  • We came home and headed as a family to dinner at Lago Tacos for the first time and it was quite tasty.  We then swung by Cub for some candy fix.

Saturday
  • Busy sports day for us!!
  • Maci and team had game 1 of their tournament at 8a which was a 9-0 W!  Maci also got her first goal with TFE!
  • We headed home for some quick house to dos/nap and then we were off to Connor’s game 1 of the double header.  They had a crushing 1 run loss but played great.  Maci and I had to head for her 2nd game so we didn’t get to see game 2 other than Connor’s first bat which was a pretty single.
  • Clint kept me posted and Connor pitched 3 innings with zero runs!  Go buddy!!  He also had 3 singles on the game!
  • Maci’s soccer game was HOT 85 degrees and dang did we struggle.   The other team was NOT better than us but we played slow and made a few mistakes in front of the goal which led to 2 goals.  We were down 1-3 heading into the final few minutes.  Maci came in and had a very nice assist to Savanah so we ended up losing 2-3 but at least showed some fight.
  • Maci and I stopped at Crumbl cookie and Chick Fil A on the way home.
  • Clint and I blew off a get together at the neighbors b/c we were exhausted from a day of not being home at all.  We instead enjoyed the OSU vs Michigan State game and Alabama vs Georgia.
Annie had a hat trick in game 1
Happy girls after game 1

This kid cracks me up - rocking to tunes on his headphones

Sunday:
  • Back up and at ‘em for Maci’s semi final game at 1040a.  Unfortunately, we had a heartbreaking 0-1 loss and didn’t need to come back for the championship game at 3p.
  • That allowed for me to get in the car and watch the Bengals on the drive home, enjoy the game while doing laundry, grocery ordering, work prep etc.
  • We finally got the W which makes me so relieved.
  • Clint took the kids to Applebees for dinner and a 615p movie of a cartoon movie I wasn’t keen to see and this gave me quiet time to get some work done, enjoy football and just listen to the quiet in the house :)
We hope you all had a great fall week!  We are ready for fall temps to show up any day :)
Lots of Love,
C, K, M & C
