We can't believe that summer is already over. School starts in one week. Megan is excited and hopes that she gets the same teacher that Mason had in third grade. We will find out next Tuesday. Mason on the other hand is not so excited about starting school. He is glad that he will be able to see his friends but of course this also means he won't be able to play so many video games. He is starting the fifth grade this year.

Mason celebrated his eleventh birthday a few weeks ago. He wanted to take his best friend Nathan to play laser tag. They had a lot of fun even Megan joined in. Korbin had fun playing a few video games but was ready to leave way before the other kids were.

Dylan and I have been working on the house some more. We decided to add a wall between our room and the living room and to close off Mason's room. It gives the house a less lofty feel and hopefully will make it easier to sell when we are ready to put it back on the market. Because of the style of our house Dylan was able to use creative ways to build the wall.

Dylan and Megan took a motorcycle ride the other day to watch some motorcycle racing. Megan seems to be the only kid excited about this so far but she is ready for her own bike. Well, I guess that Korbin is excited too but he is too small to ride. I am also really excited because now I will finally be able to learn the gears on a bike without it having to be a big motorcycle. Most of the bike that are used on the track are small dirt bikes 150cc with street tires. But once I learn the gears then I won't have any excuses left of why I don't have my own motorcycle.

Other than that we haven't been up to much. We try to go on a family bicycle ride at least once a week. We all have a lot of fun. Even Korbin has fun riding in his trailer.
