sports and treats

• Well it is now Nov. and I am just now posting again. Our weekends seem to be full of such excitement. We had so much fun with Halloween this year. It did seem to go on forever though. Wed we had class parties, Thurs. went to Lance's office for a kids costume party; then to my mom and dad's to trick or treat. Friday was such a warm nice day that the kids were able to wear there costumes with out coats. Because of the nice weather the boys stayed out trick or treating till after 7:30 (the dad's had to empty their cooler before heading home). We had our friends the Zuckers over and Craig and Gayle stopped by.
  
  
• Sat. was a day full of sports for us. The boys started basketball for the first time. They both really enjoyed it Henry made 1 basket and Jack by the end of the game could dribble the ball. Later that afternoon we went to our friends the Hassles to watch the Iowa vs Ill. game. The woman pretty much played pass the baby around(Charlie didn't mind). Henry was so happy because Regan had the Mickey Mouse club house to play with. He comments on how his friends Mickey Mouse club house is in China so he is really excited he found someone else who has it. If that was not enough sports for one day we had our monthly Parcheesi game. We play this game with the Zuckers, Kerstins and we think well we hope we finally have found our fourth couple the Tews (we are on our 2nd or 3rd fourth couple). The kids played very well and the adults did too.
  


• Sun. Jack played his last game of flag football. The game was held at Brady Stadium where the High School's play. The boys had their names announced and some of the plays announced over the speakers. It was a great ending to the season. While Jack played football Lance was busy golfing at DCC. It was the Turkey shoot and well he won $80.00 and a hat.
  
  
• It is Nov. 4th and that means Election day. Jack is very interested in this whole process and came with me to vote today (along with the other two boys). Thank goodness there wasn't a line. We let him stay up late tonight to watch some of it on TV. Jack also lost one of his front teeth. He came home from school today and told me he had good news and bad news. Bad news he lost my flag pin (from 911) I let him borrow for Election day and good news he finally lost his tooth that was barley hanging on.
