We've had a very busy month! They boys took their first plane ride...actually, it was Zach's first ride...Adam has been on three flights but it was all before his first birthday. So this was Adam's first plane ride he can remember. It started out a little rocky with a 3 hour delay in KC. Zach slept on the airport floor for most of it (thanks to dramamine!) and Adam walked around with Grammy and Grandpa. We finally boarded the plane and the boys did great. We didn't get seats all together, so Grammy and Zach sat in the very front row; Sue and Adam sat about 3 rows from the very back of the plane; and Scott and Grandpa got the exclusive seats in the very last row, next to the restrooms! I don't think Adam or Zach ever stopped talking. We looked out the window, colored and played memory. We also got treats: Sprite, pretzels and warm chocolate chip cookies!

We stayed with Lisa and Jason in DC. We rode the subway (metro), took a boat ride on the Potomac, went swimming and played miniature golf. It was a quick 3 day trip. Hopefully next time we can stay longer!

The boys started preschool and both enjoy it very much. Adam says he has 3 friends at school and Zach says he has too many to count. They have a longer day on Monday's and get to eat lunch there. It's pretty exciting because they get a juice box and fruit snacks in their lunch!

Fall soccer also started. They are both on the same team and Scott is the coach. There are seven others, one little girl and all the rest boys. We had our first game last week.

Other big news: Adam turned FIVE on Aug. 29! Zach will be FOUR in about 2 weeks. How come time seems to go so slow when you're a kid, and then it speeds up once you hit about 30!
