GO VIKINGS!!!!!!


Bas and his buddy Brayden (rivals tonight...)

WooooHoooo we had a win tonight (now 1-1). It was a good game and the nights are definitly feeling more like FOOTBALL WEATHER which I love!

Steve got a little excited with the ref's tonight (I know this comes as a shock) - he got a 15 yard penalty for sticking up for the boys (after they got 2 holding penalties in a row)... Good thing the ref didn't see Joe (the Asst Coach) throwing his hat down on the field. LOL It was a fun night!

School projects..




I can't even tell you how many POSTERS we've made already! Savannah ran for Class Secretary (and won). Sabastian had to have an "about me" poster... Savannah also ran for Student Council (and won) and had to have SIX posters! I'll post pictures of them later.. But for now, here are the posters we made after the first day of school.

Back To School...





Well, it's that time of year again - back to having a schedule and waking up before 11:00! The kids both have great teachers this year and are loving school. Savannah's teacher gives out Hot Chocolate on Fridays (she's her nana's girl...) and Sabastian's teacher is young with long blonde hair (need I say more?). Savannah got 3 yellow roses and a balloon from Petyon with a note that read "Will you be my girlfriend?"... Sabastian broke up with his girlfriend Hannah because.. "well, she's too short. She didnt get taller over the summer." LOL If only life was that easy.

We are all signed up for football and cheerleading again (both parents suckered into coaching, again). Steve just finished up softball and I've got Combo Team Tennis starting Saturday. We rarely have down time but when we do, we love taking the boat out. Monday was the one year anniversary of taking Dad to the ER and him not returning to his earthly home.. So we took the kids fishing in G's boat and had a blast. We talked about G the whole time. Bas told Steve, "This is NOT where G takes me fishing, and clearly that's why I am not catching them fast." Dad loved to be out on the water and Bas loved to be with him. They had a lot of fun throwing rocks and going on treasure hunts. We miss him soooo very much.. but I'm comforted to know he is in no pain whatsoever - and fishing the clearest water and going on the most fantastic of treasure hunts.
