{First DSMHL leveling game}

 It’s that time of year again—fall hockey season is officially here, and we couldn’t be more excited! This season, Mason is playing for both the house league and the high school league, which means double the action and double the fun. We’ve already kicked things off with our first leveling game for the house league, and while we didn’t win, I couldn’t be prouder of how the team performed. We faced off against a really tough team, and though we came up short, it was clear that we gave it everything we had. The energy and effort were there, and I have no doubt that we’re going to come out strong in the next couple of games. I can feel it in my bones—we’ve got this.

{2nd & Third DSMHL Leveling Games}

 We had an incredible weekend—our team came out strong and won both of our 2nd and 3rd leveling games! After the first game, I knew we had the potential to bounce back, and seeing the team pull together and get those wins was such an exciting moment. The energy was high, and the teamwork was on full display.

{Boba & the Lake}

 If there’s one thing you know about our family, it’s that we absolutely love spending quality time together. Whether it’s chasing sunsets, heading out to the lake, exploring fields of bluebonnets, or soaking in the beauty of sunflowers—anything that gets us outdoors is our kind of thing. We’ve always found such joy in nature, and it’s become a treasured part of our family’s rhythm.

{It Ends With Us // Girls Movie Night}

 It feels like we've been waiting for this night for what feels like an eternity! We've all read the book and been eagerly counting down the days to the release of the movie. So when we finally found an evening that worked for all of us, we couldn't wait to make it happen. We got our tickets, marked the date on our calendars, and started the countdown!

{A year??}

 Happy Wednesday, friends!! Has it really been almost a year since I've blogged? I would ask where the time has gone, but I know the answer. We have a 14-year-old (gasp) with a very busy social and sports calendar. He keeps us busy and on the go. But...I wouldn't have it any other way. Watching Mason grow into the person he is today has been such a gift. I am completely undone by the love of God and that He saw fit for us to be Mason's parents. It will always be the greatest joy of my life. I am living the life that I dreamed about for so many years and that will never be lost on me. To say that I am proud of Mason is an understatement. He's kind, respectful, and just an all-around great kid! Anyhow, more about Mason later...believe me, there's plenty to come.

From our summer cruise to the Bahamas!
