Happy Pumpkin Day




Who doesn't remember the fun of carving pumpkins in October! Well,it looks like some of our children still think it is fun. Actually, Nicholas had to do pumpkin carving as an art project for school. He chose to carve The Last Supper in his pumpkin's face. If you can see it, the carving has 3 different layers to it. Some of the carving of the Last Supper is all the way through the pumpkin and another layer such as the table is just carved partially through.


Then there is Lindsay and Sam who made pumpkin carving a date night.


Nick claims he took first place and is looking for better competition amongst family next year!

Football Finale







The football season officially ended last night. Nicholas played his last JV game as quarterback last week and they ended their season with a 6-2 record. Nick also kicks for the varsity team and last night they ended their season in a play-off game. What a great bunch of guys! We will miss this group of seniors and their leadership.

We won't say who failed the first time but SHE is a good driver now! Well, here is a picture of the practice session early in the morning prior to the big test. Congratulations Nick. Up, Up, Up goes the insurance rates!

Has anyone seen the yard man?


Hey-

We are sure missing our yard man? It use to be that Jeff would hop on the mower and keep this yard looking nice in the fall. Where is he?
