Football

We had another fabulous football season this year! Extremely happy to report that neither Colin or Justin incurred any significant injuries and both played their heart out! Justin got to try out flag football and really enjoyed playing for team Cowboys! He is such a speedster and ran for many touchdowns! It was so cute to see the boys run various football plays and not have to worry about the tackle part of it. Although it was more physical than expected with blocks and the attempts at grabbing the flag by both teams during games. Overall, a ton of fun and Justin definitely wants to play again next year.








Colin also had a stellar season! He lives and breathes football giving 101% making this mamma very nervous watching each and every game. We moved to a new league that had more teams and games were very close and competitive. The Spartans ended the season in a 4 way tie with a 6-2 record but earned top seed giving up the least amount of points. The playoffs ended with an extremely well played overtime game but we fell short last Wednesday. Colin is an amazingly talented football player with his speed, skill, and smarts! We are so proud of our boys!





 

 

 

MEA-Wisconsin Dells

We had a fabulous MEA break in Wisconsin Dells this year. We spent 3 days at the Wilderness Resort. It was awesome! There were three different indoor pool areas along with many indoor activites. The boys loved crashing the ginormous waves in the wave pool, careening back and forth in the hurricane water raft ride, and soaking in the hot tub that lay both inside and outside the building. When we were not in the water we loved the 3D mini golf, ropes course, arcade, laser tag, and go karts. Everyone agreed this is our favorite resort at the Dells!

 

Corn Maze and Pumpkin Patch

It was an absolutely gorgeous Fall day today with temps in the 80's and lots of sun. The perfect day to be outside picking pumpkins and getting lost in corn mazes. Peggy, Wyatt, Jennifer, Brian, Damon, Matt, Deborah, Laura, and Karl all met us in Shafer for a super cute corn maze. There were other fun activities with tug o' war, bean bag toss, and a very cool obstacle course. Next, we headed to Lendt's Pumpkin Patch to pick out our pumpkins. This is another super cute place with lots of fall decor and various booths of food and crafts. October is going fast!
