The Minnesota Twins are amazing at coming back late in the game. I just hope they can keep at it and beat the Yankees. It will be hard without Morneau. But they have given all of us fans a reason to hope.
Seems summer has come and gone and now fall is upon us again. Bennett is enjoying preschool very much. He looks forward to it, which is a relief considering he won't even go by himself to the children's message at church. He has a really good pal, Dawson Rieck, whom he plays with there. I am glad he has a friend who will be with him in Kindergarten next year as well.
I have been craving soup lately and tried a new recipe called Chicken Tomato Bisque. It was pretty good. Next to try is chickpea and pasta soup. Mmmm.

referree
I have come to the conclusion that my life's occupation is referree. It seems I spend all day dealing with conflicts between my 2 children. Fights break out over simple things. "Mom, she's in my toy room!" Oh no! Brooklyn is standing in your toy room? How awful! She might look at you!
On the upside, I am looking forward to Thursday. Kurt's mom has offered to have both my kids that day so I can have a ME day. Wonderful and exciting! I will thank her many times for this. I love my kids, but once in a while I need a short break.
Labor Day was fun. Went to Loon Island at Shetek State Park and walked with the kids. Very relaxing and great scenery. We saw a ton of deer wandering around too. Then we ate at Slayton Pizza Ranch and were disappointed because we did NOT get our money's worth at the buffet. They struggled all night and blamed it on the to-go orders. Come on, we are important too. Then I went to get coffee to go and the Decaf Dan was full of coffee grounds. Since I prefer not to chew my coffee, I went with Hazelnut, which was luke warm. Argh.

my how the time does fly
Today we are having a birthday party for Bennett and Brooklyn. 5 and 2. How can it be? I don't remember the days flying by! It reminds me to cherish every moment I have with my little angels. Bennett is 4 feet tall already. I have a feeling he may be a tall man someday. Brooklyn is speaking way too much for her age. She can sing very well also. Both B1 and B2 love to sing. We gave B1 drumsticks as part of his gift. He loves them. I hope the party goes well. It should be a nice day for a shindig.
