NOPE we don't like SCOPES

I can picture our little kindergarten Kyler sitting there waiting for his scope, now here we are with a 7th grader, doing the waiting and hoping game. . . 

 He's done this before, but it's been a while!  Still in good spirits as always . . . 

We had a short meeting with the doctor and looked at his pictures . .  didn't look so good - but biopsy results will show for sure what is going on.  We will be getting our plan from ACH in the upcoming weeks and see what to do.  He is still having a reaction and eosinophil count is high - hoping its just a medication change and not any more food eliminations.  He was back to school and back on track in no time!

Twas the Night Before School Starts 2016

This annual picture gets harder to take every year - but it HAS to happen . .  it's tradition!  Our future 9th grader, Freshman in High School. . .this is it folks, the beginning of High School days; lots of memories will be made.  He will wake up bright and early and head to football practice and begin his first day in HIGH SCHOOL . . .

 Our future 4th graders . . . no more Pop Williams Elementary for the Pitts . .  it's on to Ledbetter Intermediate for our 4th graders.  He will be changing classes starting his first year of Cardinal football . . .

 Our future 7th grader . . soon to be a teenager.  He will be changing classes and begin his first year of football out of the Peewee program . . .

Good night Pittsboys!  Despite my post party house, post football signups garage and desk . . . the house is ready to start this year: lunches are on the island, first day outfits are selected, new backpacks by the back door and alarms are set.  Let's do this! 

School Start Up

In the midst of preps fro party central at our house . .  we had to meet some teachers!  Evan is moving on up to Intermediate School . . . 

 Jayden is starting his FRESHMAN year at the Freshman Academy.  HIGHSCHOOL, oh my!

 Kyler is continuing at Lynch Middle.  7th Grade here he comes!

Teachers were met, schedules were got and friends were reunited.  Football signups/equipment handouts  were the day before school.  Instead of entering the school year well rested and all set . . . we were recovering from an all night bash at our house, heaps of paperwork from signups, booster club duties, house on the market and exciting prep work going on at the new land.  

Summer Stuff 2016

We had a busy summer as usual.  My picture taking skills were lacking this summer, but I've got a few to show some Pittsboy happenings.  Summer nights in the hot tub . . .

Not many, but a few short trips to Hot Springs - we are finishing up the ultimate condo redo, so any time we were there we had a project.

It look s so good, though!  Can't wait to go and enjoy it (maybe racing season?!)

We picked up some Millers for a mid week trip . . .

Coco had surgery to have her lump removed.  She got spoiled by the boys!

another condo pic . . .

Jayden did some fishing . . .

We had a belated birthday celebration for Kyler . . . High Rise and a sleep over.

 Afternoons at the lakehouse . . .

 This is Evan on the day of the party . . mid set up of the cocktail tables and band . . .

 Here's the invite to our 1st annual Shrimp Boil.  I don't have any pictures from the party because we had the "no social media" rule.  I should have taken pictures of the house, because it looked quite amazing!  Rented cocktail tables with black covers, food buffet in the Dining Room, bar tender set up at the island, band set up outside, 60 plus pounds of shrimp . .  around 150 came to celebrate the Cardinal Kickoff, it was quite the bash!  It will definitely be an annual affair.

  Here is one of my trees on the deck - they looked great with the Band set up next to them.

 Summer went by like a flash!  Before we knew it was time for meet your teachers and football!  Summers seem to go quicker with every passing year.  Goodbye, so long, farewell Summer of 2016 - it was fun while it lasted!

Camp Ozark 2016

This was our first year to send all three Pittsboys to Camp Ozark!  Drop off was a little WILD.  We had a boy to move in at each corner of the camp and a flight to Vegas to catch!

 The youngest Pittsboys was inducted to his tribe. . . 

 Our middle man was spotted on the boat on lake day . . .

 As usual, I spent time by the pool scouring through hundreds of pictures looking for a glimpse of a Pittsboys!

 These boys made some memories!  We sure were happy to see them on closing day!
