August 2015 update

8/29 - Today started sports season.  Crazy day.  Landon had a baseball game at 9am.   It started out a little slow.  Landon made a mistake - on 2nd had a guy on 3rd and he tried to steal 3rd. He got out.  But boy did he make up for it.  His next at bat he got a triple that went all the way to the fence.  He also got a double play - caught pop fly and ran to 2nd for double play.  He played well at catcher as well.  Good game.  Yankees won 8 to 7.

Landon is now at Boy scouts for some activities.  They did some running, jumping and other physical activities.  While they were gone Kasey and I watched girl scout cake wars.

Then we all went to lunch at Elke's.  We came home and chilled out for a little while then Kasey and I went to girl scout event.  I had some training and she got to hang out with Violet and make some swaps.  She had a good time and we learned about some ways to get girls to lead and decide what they do.

After that Kasey and I got to have a quick dinner the 2 of us at Chick Fil A.  Then we headed to Landon's soccer game.  The boys played hard, but lost 4 to 2.

Then Landon went with the Dowdy's to friend party.  Greg went to FC Dallas game with a friend, and Kasey and I got a small treat finished Girl Scout Cake Wars and got her to bed.

8/25 - Kasey got on pink today and was really excited

8/24 - First day of school.   Greg and I both took the kids.  We dropped Kasey off and did a drive by with Landon.   They both had good days at school.  They like their teachers.  Landon has a boy in his class that is a bit of a trouble maker.  Kasey had them last year.

8/20 - Back to the Castle.   Kasey got to meet her teacher Ms Carter.  She was excited.  Kasey has several boys in her class that she knows and has "liked" over the years.  Friend from preschool, boys from last years class, boys from the neighborhood.   Hope she doesn't get in to much trouble.
Landon got to see his new AIM rooms - she has 2 now and look great.   He got to meet his homeroom teacher Ms Dreher and his math teacher Ms Dobson and science and social studies teacher Ms McGraw.  Landon wasn't sure he'd have any guy friends in the class, but he has a few.
It should be a fun year.

8/17 - I started my new job today.  I've been in Wireless connectivity for about 5 years at TI and enjoyed the ride.  I'm excited about new adventures.  I will be managing training and field communications across several business units at TI.  I'm excited to get started.  Biggest change is that my new group is almost all women.  That's a new one for me, but several of them I have known or worked with for years.

I started out heading to Houston because one of my bosses lives and works there.  We spent a day and a half doing brain dump and starting to transition things to me.
