First Day Back To School!

Well the kids are back in school and it is fantastic in so many ways! Dang they are so happy to be around their old friends and making new ones. I am so proud of them and how they are just so comfortable in a classroom setting and being around people and just so dang social it is awesome! And something that I really give credit to living in this amazing community filled with 105 adults with special needs they are all their aunts and uncles and friends and brothers and sisters! It is so unique and amazing and does so many great things for my whole family I love it! Thank You Brookwood! I am so happy because I now have a few minutes to run and think and pray and breath for myself. And I spent the day catching up with some old friends at noodle house, Good Stuff! I also get to go on some day time dates with my fantastic wife or just catch a cup of coffee with her on our front porch just some time to be with her,  She is amazing and I love her in the small and large moments! And then when it is time for the kids to come home it is time to celebrate with and get excited about all the knowledge that they soaked up that day and all the great times that they shared with their friends, awesome love the first day of school! So thankful!

Our kids Enjoying a morning Scout Ride
Our Pup Lucy and Johnna
Ahhh? What to say, we are 4 days away from the start to school for the kids! I am really looking forward to Johnna and my first day time date that will hopefully involve some good food good conversation Johnna talking and me listening a little hand holding and a lot of happy kisses! I am so thankful for this past summer and thankful for the passing of Summer. I need to find time to rejuvinate. I need to find some adventurous time with the family and the Bros and some joint Bros Families adventures. My heart and soul are screaming for it. Scouts, Bikes, Fishing, Triathlons, whatever bring it and lets just stinkin do it. I am so looking forward to the days of cooler weather, I can not wait for the first morning of 60 degrees. It is probably still a month away but i feel like I have binoculars because it seems closer to me! Can't wait! Things on the horizon that need some prayer. Kids and the school year! The Daily Grind! Brookwood! and Adventures that need to come!
