It's a beautiful sight to behold. There is not much better than Carolina football, and there we were for the first game of the season. I still get chills when they play 2001 and the players come running onto the field. It's amazing just how electric that stadium can get during a game.

First Day of Preschool
It's official - Collin has started school. Ok, so it's only 2 days a week for a few hours, but it's "real" school. We went and met his teachers, and got a little list of things he needed. So, it was off for school supply shopping. Mom wanted to get the cute Pottery Barn Kids bookbag with Collin's monogram on it. As you can see below Mom lost that battle. Standing in the middle of Target Collin picked up the Toy Story bookbag, squeeled as he put it on, then with a huge smile, shrugged his shoulders and said, "This is just right." How do you say no to that??
Just a few days later he was off for his first day of school. It was way harder on mom than Collin. As much as I joke about him never looking back (which he didn't), I'm glad he is so confident and comfortable that he wants to experience new things on his own. I also know it means that he is certain I am coming back for him. Oh that we might all have someone we love and trust that much.

The Craziness...
that is my life. I'm starting to wonder how I ever had time to work. Ok, so that is a little dramatic. I am the first to admit that I lead a life of relative leisure since I resigned from teaching last year. However, my life still is, none the less, crazy.
Thanks to a little help from my sister we had a wonderful vacation at the beach. Collin loved playing in the pool with daddy, and really isn't interested in water that doesn't have an appropriate ledge from which to jump. We took Collin to see his first movie in a theatre - Toy Story 3, of course. We went to the park, worked in the yard, watched pre-season football and just had a wonderful time being a family. Fortunately this latest trip won't be as long.
In the past 4 weeks we have welcomed Robert home only to see him off again. But, we were able to pack in a ton of family time before he left. I was spending time with my guys instead of blogging, so here's a recap.
