Win!!!!!

The new picture is a picture of A halloween candy man that Katie brought home from school.

The first playoff game was last night, we won 50-0. Jim did not get to play, but the game did not get to halftime. (again with the South Dakota Mercy rule)
Go Seahawkes!!!!!!!

At the branch party last friday night, One of the games played was eating a doughnut off a string. Jim was the fastest at this.

Danny

I am trying again with the picture of Danny among the iris.

Danny

Here is a picture of danny sitting between some of the iris we planted one day. Mikey, Danny and I had a lot of fun with this.

Broken Butt?

Jim was coming down to the last football game of the season and he BROKE HIS BUTT. Well not really, its just a bruised tail bone. But did he hurt it playing football so he can someday in the future claim "an old football injury"? No, he was racing to answer the phone and as he stepped from carpet to linoleum, and turned to pick up the phone, (at top speed), he slipped and landed on his backside, we all laughed and gave his some ibuprofin and a rice bag for the future pain. but the next morning he hurt to move, we kept him on tylenol and ibuprofin for the next week before taking him to the dr. who had xrays done, she said it is not broken simply very bruised and to take it easy and stay on ibuprofin and get a donut to sit on. Its up to jim whether he takes the donut to school or not, but definitely use it at home. Be careful at football.

So now his coach has said to work hard but to stop in practice when it starts to hurt, because he doesn't want Jim to still hurt next year.

The last game was thursday, we lost 50-8. Jim did not get to play. Which is ok because Jim has a broken butt.

Echos quote

Echo was given an assignment to find two quotes that describe her, she picked these two:

Reading is ... the roual road to intellectual eminence... Truly godd books are more than mines to those who can understand them. They are the breathings of the great souls of past times. Genius is not embalmed in them, but lives in them perpetually.
William Ellery Channing

and

You may have tangible wealth untold;, Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold. Richer than I you can never be---I had a mother who read to me.
Strickland Gillilian

I thought I would share these with you.

The game

We Won!!!!

42-24

Homecoming

The homecoming game is tonite.
So the homecoming parade was this afternoon. One of the fun things about living in a small town is that when you have a homecoming parade, the parade goes by twice. Once going and then it circles around and comes by again. This is extremely helpful if mom did not turn on the camera the first time and missed a picture. even after the teacher stops the class, gets your childs attention and waits for you to take the picture. it was also easy to get lots of candy. the float with the bus, was designed by Jims class and I didn't a picture of echos class float. Echo and Jim were not in the parade as their classes designed floats that did not need people. and most of the kids in their classes were in the band. Even the preschool was in the parade as firemen. (the hats on Mikey and Danny).
