Halloween & Pumpkin Carving

It's not Halloween without a pumpkin carving night. Everyone was into designing their own pumpkin face and carving it out. However, Seth had quite an issue with pulling out the inside of the pumpkin. And you can't forget about roasting pumpkin seeds--Yummy!



Can you guess what the kids were dressed up as this year?

The adults even got into the Halloween spirit. Our dinner group decided to dress up this year. Can you guess who we are?

Soccer Time!

Our soccer season is finally over. Andrea, Seth, & Kiana enjoyed soccer this fall despite the weekly practices, cold morning games, game losses, playing in the mud, wind, rain, & sun, and having their last game canceled due to rain. I'm sure we will be signing them up again for soccer next fall.

Andrea has played for 7 years now and loves to play a defender position especially goalie. At the age of 13, girls take soccer very seriously.

Seth has played soccer for 6 years and although he is a great goalie his favorite position is still to play forward and make the goals. We've rewarded him with a Slurpee for every goal he makes. 7-11 is getting quite a bit of business from us.

This is Kiana's 2nd year playing. Although she hasn't said that she loves soccer, she does play her best. She is a little hesitant about invading the pack when they have the ball, but she does has a great kick and doesn't mind being the goalie. We think she likes the attention!



Well, until next year---GO TEAM!
