It's Christmastime!!
The kids and I were missing my sister and her family something awful so since there was no school the whole week of Thanksgiving we decided to go spend a few days up in Boise and we are all SO glad we did!
First band concert of the year was tonight and Matthew and the kids did SO amazing!
So proud of our trombone player!
Evelyn applied to and was accepted into Southridge's chapter of the National Honor Society.
The induction ceremony was this evening.
I am so proud of Evelyn and her friends and know they have a bright future in front of them.
My nephew is married!!
Zach married Jaysea yesterday down in Salem and it was such a lovely day celebrating them and being together with family!
Here are some pics of the day..
This year Evelyn had a few friends over to watch movies and hang out, and Matthew went trick or treating with friends. Love that they both did their own thing and ok with Doug and I just staying home.
It ended up being a quiet night with very few trick or treaters at our house, but I am really loving Halloween with big kids these days!
Each year the youth football program does a fundraising event, selling pies. The past 3 years Matthew has been the top seller and has always gotten a gift card.
I do a lot of the leg work with pie sales, which I don't mind, and Matthew is always grateful for that. This year after he won he told me he wanted to take me to lunch with his money to thank me. I suggested Buffalo Wild Wings on a Sunday to watch football. It was a win for us both! We went today after church and had the best time, watching football games, eating good food and chatting about everything.
