The A-Team Triathlon

This year the three older boys decided to join me in the triathlon and formed a team of their own. THE A-TEAM!! complete with cowbell support crew (Nic and Boo).

Tuffer was the swimmer(of course) and did an Awesome job! He even went the extra mile (or rather lap) and did one extra lap in his swim.

Here comes Matthew on the bike. Nothing could stop him not even a case of road rash.

Then Shermie was off on the run.

Cow bell crew on the move.

As Shermie was coming in to finish his run the other boys joined him to cross the finish line.

Way to go Shermie! Way to go BOYS!!!!

They had a lot of things to do in between the kids race and mine.

Peaches for Pie

This year we decided to try peach pie filling with our canning. It turned out AWESOME!

Hair Cut

After fighting tangles and the self-cut hair on her head I finally broke down and had Annalyn's hair cut for the first time.


I think it turned out cute and its much easier to do.

Big Girl Dress up

Rainy Game

Shermie's game today started out in the rain. It was colder than I expected for this time of year but lucky for us Lynett brought hot chocolate and we had the umbrellas to stay dry.

Fall Carnival Project

I helped again this year with the class project for the silent auction. I think they did a great job. I really wanted to keep this one but we didn't make it to the school carnival. :(

Labor Day Reunion

We had The Labor Day McCall family reunion this weekend. It started out with everyone going to watch Shermie's football game.

He played a lot so it was fun for everyone to see him in action.

The girls got to help the cheerleaders at half-time make a tunnel for the boys when they come back on to the field. This is Annalyn's favorite part she is like the little cheerleader mascot. They are always vying for her attention. Maddi love it too! They were so cute!


Then we all spent the rest of the weekend at Gramie and Pop pop's having fun and playing in the pool.
