Basketball and halloween

Okay, so I had typed this really long post and then went to add a picture and then clicked something wrong and it all disappeared. Sucks to be me right now. Wow. That really was not good. Anyway- to make a long story short, Laura had a basketball scrimmage against another 7th grade team from another school district. You could tell this team had played together for several years. They were pretty good. Laura didn't get to play much and was pretty disappointed. We told her to just suck it up and get better and that might catch the coach's eye. Maybe, maybe not. This isn't our usual coach this year. It's a different one with a different team. We'll see how this season goes...

Okay, since I haven't blogged much lately, here are some pics from Halloween. The first one is of me. My boss had mentioned a few weeks before Halloween that he'd pay me a hundred bucks if I would dress up as a witch and stand out in the front of our office by the street with a sign trying to get people to come in for insurance quotes. Do you think I did it? Heck yes I did it!!
No one came in for quotes, but I still got the money and I had fun dancing around out there.


The girls went with their friends trick or treating, so no pics of them together this year. sniff sniff. It's the first year in forever I don't have them goofing off on the front steps together. I guess that's what happens when they get older.... sigh. Kierstin went with her friend Katie. Katie was obviously the dude from Scream and Kierstin was a dizzy/slow cowgirl. Don't ask.





Here's Laura. She was supposed to be Daisy Duke.






Kierstin also got picked to play in the flag football game that the 8th grade girls play against the freshman girls. The 8th graders won! It was fun to go watch. The guys dressed up as the cheerleaders and kept the crowd entertained.

That's enough for today. More tomorrow...
