Where did it go?


/>





Wow! The summer was a blur of activity for the Held's. Tomorrow we pay our annual homage to the butter cow at the Iowa State Fair marking the last of our summer events before school starts. Here are some highlights:
JUNE- Brady turned 9 with his first sleepover. Then he got MVP of his team at the Drake University basketball camp. His Memorial Day broken nose didn't stop him from pitching his way onto the All-County Team. Meanwhile, mom hosted 400 for Alumni Weekend. JULY- Mom welcomed 30,000 for RAGBRAI (HUGE bike ride that sayed overnight in Indy & many at the college.) Thanks to Sherry, Dale & Laurie for volunteering & kid patrol! Then mom rounded up 35 TriDelta friends for a sleepover reunion at the house. AUGUST- brought the balloons and a visit from Hannah Rose, mom & dad & Sherry & Dale. By day 2 of 5am balloon crewing, Hannah was falling asleep at the kitchen counter. But she caught a ride! AUGUST 8th- Eric gets the long awaited SBA approval to purchase Bob's Custom Trophies! WOO HOOO!! He met the staff today and it's a 2-4 of weeks of paperwork before we change hands. And Kenzie? She took a well-deserved break from tumbling & tried Tae Kwon Do with Laurie. She went back to the gym today for a clinic & starts up at the end of August. The new coach is big on skills- she had to do back handsprings over a barrel. The back to school shopping is D-O-N-E & we are ready!! FALL? School starts for three of us. Brady starts his first tackle football team. Kenzie gears up at the gym. Eric plans to resign as Mr. Mom. Dang. Guess I had better re-discover the laundry room. Love to all of you!
