Halloween 08

We officially stepped out of our comfort zone...this year neither of the boys was a character from Star Wars...not that we didn't try. Poor Jack, he is a 9 year old stuck in the body of a 12 year old. He wanted to be a Storm Trooper, but we couldn't find a costume to fit...kids was too small, adults was two big! After some searching on the web-we found something that tickled him...Buddy the Elf! Oh-the fun!!

Weekend fun

It is fun 24/7 around here...really! We got to go out and meet up with the Lockharts and Kjellbergs and the new babies...love the babies...so do the boys-but not enough to have another one here at home! Also went to Chris's managers wedding-beautful-but don't have any pictures of the happy couple-bummer!

Soccer 2008

Another great season for both the boys. Chris coached Jack's team "The Storm Hawks 2" to great victory...9-0 with one game to go. Ben's team "The Fireballs" had an up and down season-but did a fantastic job...Ben had the first goal of the season and we've been waiting for another one ever since!! I think Jack and Chris are going up to football next year-YIKES!! Ben could do without sports all together-gasp...but I think we can talk him into another year.
