Pumpkin Fun

 I admit it… This last week I have almost fallen off the face of the planet, but I will try to redeem myself with kid pictures. This last week has been full of kid activities, work, and volunteer activities. We have all been running non-stop.

In the past week I have had two special meetings for the Star (Hank’s school) school board. Although I am not Catholic, you could say that I am knee deep in Catholicism. – Which may or may not be a good thing. Since I don’t want to actively bash on anyones religion, we’ll stop there.

Hank had his last football game of the season Saturday in Ilwaco. They won again Warrenton. It was a cold, clear day and fun was had by all. After the game we stopped and had chowder down at the dock, yum!

Yesterday we loaded into the car early and headed to Sauvie Island to go here. We all had a lot of fun hunting for pumpkins, playing in the hay, and eating caramel apples.

Now that football is over basketball season begins. Practice starts today and I think that their first game is next Monday!

We are all getting excited to go home for Thanksgiving. Only 19 more days until we board the airplane en route to Alaska! Hank is really looking forward to seeing family and would really like to shoot a few deer. Bringing home a lot of meat would be great, our freezer is getting pretty bare!

Note: Mikey (far left) only wanted an apple on a stick, no carmel on his
