Yes, I know I am not very good about posting, but I am going to try to get better. We have a lot going on at the Adams household.
Jackson started his senior year and Lili started Kindergarten this year. We are busy with so many things. (Looking at colleges and trying to get on and stay on track with applications, community service, homework, college visits, homework, grades, gpa's for Jackson ....AND....homework (yes, in Kindergarten), lunches, new routines, new friends, schedules (bedtime is a lot earlier now), and getting over the first few weeks of after school grumpies (school is more challenging for Lili than she thought - she is so tired when she gets home).
Jackson and Lili are both playing soccer this season too. Lili's plays for the Sugarplums, and Eric and his Mom are coaching, and I am team manager. It's so fun to see how competitive these beautiful girls are, I had no idea it was going to be like this. Their first game, they scored 16 goals vs 5 goals for the other team, and Lili scored a hat trick during her first game ever. She was so excited. North Texas Thunder U19 (Jackson's club team) has played two games and played the Labor Day Tournament in Plano . Thunder has several new players this season from Frisco, recruited by Jackson. They are still making some adjustments to the lineups and formations, but this is going to be an exciting season.
My grandparents celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary this past weekend, we all attended a party at the retirement home where Mamaw lives now. It was a wonderful occasion and most of the kids, grandkids and great-grandkids were able to attend. My grandparents have been a wonderful example to us and have definitely shown us what true love is, through good and bad, young to old. I am so proud to be their grandaughter, and strive to have a marriage as successful and bountiful as theirs has been!
I and many of my family members will be walking in the Alzheimer's Memory Walk at UTA on October 2nd. I am excited about this event, even though my fundraising efforts have not been quite as successful as I had hoped. But I think we are going to continue doing this walk on an annual basis, so I guess I will learn more each year and what works and what doesn't.


Well, that's a lot of news for one day, and I hope to continue on a more regular basis. Lots going on with the Adams Family. Busy but blessed!!!
