Grammie and Paw Paw (Robert’s parents) are here for their September visit. We attempted to enjoy what may have been our last day of summer by eating dinner outside Friday night – complete with fresh local corn and watermelon. We also thought it would be a good opportunity to see where any bats may be trying to enter our house at dusk! We did not spot any bats, but did get eaten alive by mosquitoes!
Cooper and Paw Paw on the swing – chilaxing, if you will. (That one’s for you, Etheredges) Cooper is holding his latest novel in his ten book series entitled “The Lost Knight.” He has completed book seven and is working on book eight! And yes, we are keeping Miller Pads and Paper in business buying their blank books! Coop’s books are pretty amazing – lots of adventure – and complete with illustrations. Maybe his books will be the next that we get to publish!

Do you need to borrow some of our summer nights? We can trade you some stuffy, humid, misquito lov’in Texas nights for some chilly crisp New England ones! Deal!?
Yes…”chillaxin”. We’re going to make every effort this week to do just that. It’s getting more and more challenging. Madeline’s dream will come true tomorrow when she begins violin lessons. Maisie is super pumped about soccer and Jonah is jamming in his drum lessons! Everyone has an activity. 🙂
Have a great week. Let us know when your book (and Coop’s for that matter!) become available! I want the 2nd copy…assuming you’ll get the 1st!!
Love y’all,
~Melissa
When does the book come out? I can’t wait!
Wow – drum lessons! Cooper’s dream, and Kayla’s is violin! Piano starts tomorrow for everyone and we’ll hopefully add the other instruments in the near future. Say hi to the cousins, and have a chilaxin week! And yes, I’ll be taking donations of warmth/sunshine through May!
Love,
Mel
Hi Kim,
The printer says the book will be ready to ship on the 21st of this month! Scary! Exciting!
Mel, love your blog. A good way to keep up with the gluten free krums. I’m so excited about your book. Sounds like Cooper has really been busy, I think when we were there in June he had finised book three. Sounds like the grandchildren are keeping Grammie and Paw Paw busy. Love you guys.
