While staying focused on my family and work I have had quit a roller coaster ride the last six months. July was all about hiking. Making a visit to Oklahoma to see my Uncle Chris who is diagnosed with brain cancer and celebrate my grandson Zades 1st Birthday.
August was about the hiking again. School started for the kids and with them both in sports the fun begins. Remington was in Cross Country and Karly volleyball. September started the rough ride for the next three months. My grandmother's brother Phil Clark from Carthage Il. was killed while riding his bike. He was 87 a WWII vet an avid conservationist and most importantly a farmer. I hiked a few more times this month but this would be the last for the year. We also received word that there is nothing else they can do for Uncle Chris' cancer.
October was well just october, made a few trips to the farm and cut a lot of brush. Evan and family made a trip up for the weekend is always nice to see them and our big one year old. At the end of the month my Grandmothers sister Rosie past away she was 89.
Here comes November. Remington and I went to the farm for youth deer season, and to be with my grandparents. All the rest of my family went to Oklahoma as we got word the end is near for my Uncle. Deer season was a wash, we only seen one deer in two days of hunting. Celebrated Lauries b-day. Than also got the call from my mother that Uncle Chris had passed he was 56. Went to Oklahoma for services and had another service the following week in Peaksville. Had Thanksgiving with family in Quincy at Uncle Phils house.
Finally December is here. Remington is playing basketball through the winter and shopping begins.
