Life Lately

Just a quick catch up post since the Houstons have been busy lately!

Zander had his first youth retreat with our church! He enjoyed devotions, sleeping in cabins, ziplining, archery, shooting, a silent disco and lots of fun with friends! While he was away for the weekend, Maddox and I had an “M & M” weekend- Maddox and Mommy)! Zack had inventory so it truly was a weekend for the two of us! He cashed in on some of his birthday gift cards and got a couple new games for the Nintendo switch. We enjoyed eating out (Chickfila) and a trip to the Science Center. We watched some college football on Saturday evening and finished out our weekend with church and a soccer game.

Maddox continues to get a hat trick (at least three goals scored per game) and multiple assists in each soccer game! He plays multiple positions and excels at each one!

We had a teacher workday this past week due to the presidential election (Donald Trump was elected as our 47th president and will serve his second term after Inauguration Day in January). We took the afternoon to visit Mommy’s college campus, eating a late lunch at Yum Yums and getting Krispy Kreme donuts for our two boys who both had straight A’s for the first quarter of school! I’m so proud of both of them and how hard they work at school!

We finished a puzzle that Maddox got as a birthday present!

Maddox finished his soccer season yesterday with a 7-1 record and a big scoring game to finish the season!

Grammy and Grandpa try to make it to all the boys’ games…. Home and away! 

Maddox loved playing with Gunner and John this season!

Beau is getting ready for his first Christmas as a Houston (if I can talk him into not trying to eat the tree… haha!) I decorated for Christmas yesterday in between soccer games! It’s a busy November and I love having the decorations up as long as possible before Christmas!
