Fall into the Season

When I got home on Tuesday after practice I noticed there was a lot of leaves that had fallen, and Jaden has been asking to rake up a pile, so we headed outside in the beautiful weather and raked up a BIG pile of leaves.  Jaden loved running and diving into them, Bryson slowly backed into them and then plopped down.  What a beautiful season.  

Can you spy Jaden in the leaves?

 Last Sunday, Iowa State had a home volleyball game at noon.  We finally had a chance to go cheer them on.  It was a heart-breaking 5 game match against ranked Texas.  I love watching the Cyclones, they are so good. They boys had such a good time too.  Jaden yelled, "Go Cyclones" about every minute and Bryson tried to cheer too.  Jaden did slip up once and yelled, "Go Hawkeyes".  Not sure why that came out :) but I was glad he didn't get beat up.

Cute pic of the boys in their cute jammies.  They are getting so big and they still love each other so much!

Also - I don't have a picture yet, but my 9th grade volleyball team kicked some butt today in our home tournament.  They played so well and got 1st place.  We didn't lose a match, let alone a game all day.  I only had to call 1 time out all day.  They were covering their hitters and picking up blocks, hitting so well, passing well... They all showed so much improvement not only individually, but as a team as well.  So proud of them.
