3rd Grade football Playoffs!

Slade's football team made it to the playoffs!  We were ranked number 3 out of 16 teams.  Our first playoff game was against Azle.  It was such a close game.  We would score, they would score, and finally we had to go into overtime.  We ended up winning 21-20!  It was so much fun!  Since we won, we had to play White Settlement.  We were so nervous because we had already lost to them 20-0.  But, we came out fighting and won!  We held them, they didn't even score. We won 25-0!  It has been a fun week of practice because of day light savings time, we have been practicing at the Middle School football fields under the lights.  Slade thinks it is pretty cool.  Since we won, we are now going to the Super Bowl!  It is really just the last game of the tournament, so I don't know why they call it the Super Bowl, it is more like the district championship.  We have to play the other Aledo team!  They have not lost since 1st grade. It is going to be a good game! 










Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!  Our neighborhood did trick or treating on Saturday night, so we went over to Cayden's house for Halloween to trick or treat.  It was so much fun!  Their neighborhood always does neat stuff.  They had bounce houses, huge gerbil balls, and a game truck.  The boys dressed up as Ant Man and a Halo guy.  

We also had our church's fall festival on Sunday night before Halloween. It is always a good time too.  They have bounce houses, food and games.  The boys favorite is a baseball game that a stream of air holds the ball and you hit it into a net that has different plays.  

We thought for sure the baby was going to come on Halloween, but it still has not made it's appearance. 






















Brant's first love note!

Brant's teacher lets the kids write letters to each other.  He usually comes home with notes from boys, but this time, he was hiding the note.  I quickly snatched it from him and it revealed it was from a girl!! Charlotte!  It was his first love note.
