The Final Fall Semester

Hello, blog fans. Another two months between entries, but again we have real CNM photos. The boys are halfway through their final fall semester, with plans to graduate in May. They helped us with a big project of cleaning out the backyard fish pond, which is no small task.

Carson turned 22 in September and celebrated by accepting a job as a bartender for a new Mass St night club. Here he is getting mentored by Dad's buddy Joe. They look like they are about to fight, but really they are just focusing on the tutorial.

Conner celebrated his 23rd birthday by going to California with his friends and hunting lobster. Can you believe the size of the one in the picture?!

Bless him for bringing home the tails and grilling them for us on his birthday. The one that is pictured is the one in the above picture as well. We decided it was at least three times the size of one you would get at a fancy seafood restaurant. 

Thneed had surgery this month for a GI obstruction. Not fun!  She has been recovering in one of the bedrooms and even though she and her sister are 13 this year, she seems to be doing pretty well.

Mom and Dad got to enjoy an early season KU b-ball game! They are very happy the heat of summer is (finally) behind us, and looking forward to the holiday season. Rock Chalk!
