Fridays in Fall

Three years ago we bought a house where our lot adjoins the school our kids attend. For the 5 years prior to that we had commuted from North Plano, meaning that our kids were spending 8 hours a week in the car just getting to and from school. This doesn't include the time spent driving down to Dallas to play on athletic teams or coming to special events at school.

Our lives are so much simpler living this close to school. Our kids don't have to wake up as early, after school commitments are so much easier. It's a good thing.

One special thing about living in this location is Friday nights when we have home football games. Between school and kickoff, our house becomes the hangout point for a multitude of kids. My role is food production. It's amazing how much food 10-15 kids can go through, especially when most of them are teenagers.

Well, it's time to sign off...I must walk over to kickoff. :-)
