Avery and I made a fun mom/daughter/Aunt Jenna trip to Baylor where we saw the outside of our old dorm that had been remodeled (they wouldn't let us inside - boo!) and the brick that we donated, ran into Jen and Corinne at the bookstore, visited the cute new bears, and tailgated for a bit before we went to the game!
Avery turned SIXTEEN this month which I can't even wrap my head around! We rented a foam machine again since it was such a hit last year, but it wasn't as popular as the girls this time - I think the weather was cold this year! I still made them get in so I could get our money's worth but they had more fun in the hot tub! A friend loaned me the numbers, and another friend helped me with the balloon pillars. I am NOT decor-talented but I thought it all turned out pretty cute! Avery also got a new car for her birthday - she won't get her license for another few weeks but she is getting lots of practice!
The Patriots have had a tough but great season so far! Aidan and his fellow seniors (Riley and Riley) are leading the pack and Aidan has played awesome - he is even on defense some this year. It has been so fun cheering him on, and hard to believe this is his last season to play!
We are in the swing of things with fall activities! Football is its own post, but Aidan asked Summer to Homecoming after one of her volleyball games, got his senior stole for NHS (and Summer was inducted!), drove to an Aggie game with his friend Brady, and is just generally enjoying his senior year.
