Lyon, here we come!

another August, another adventure...

Caitlin has accepted a scholarship to play basketball for the Lady Pipers of Lyon College in Batesville, and today we are headed to Arkansas' 2nd oldest city (or so says their welcome sign) to move her in.

Her sisters began their new school year on Wednesday, and their momma began her second year of working outside the home ten days ago...

we are officially back in the swing!

back to school... there are so many analogies one could draw...

it is at once excitement and dread and anticipation and a little fear... mostly it is a time of 'new'.

new school for Caitlin, new hallway and teachers for Cassie, new challenges for Cara...

Cara... my senior... (is it really that time again? didn't we just go through this with our oldest?) a year from now, we will be likely be loading up the car to deliver her to a new place...

I am so not ready...

for now, for today, the 'deal' is Batesville... after interning at the University Church in Conway as a youth minister all summer, my oldest has been 'home' for only a couple weeks... and now she heads to Lyon...

For my part, I am excited for Cait! can't wait to see what this year holds for her!

Blessings!
