October 2010

Well, the month has come and almost gone, soccer season is over, the weather is getting cooler and Halloween is right around the corner. Morgan had a great soccer season...she scored more than anyone else on her team and her coach called her the "star player" of the team!! Of course, my buttons were bursting!!
I have one picture from the whole season...how is that possible you ask?? I don't have a good answer. :(One weekend during the month, we had friends over for a fun afternoon. Bob took the day off of work to spend with us. So, here are a few pictures...we failed to get the camera out in time to get everyone :(Oma, Bepaw, the kids and I went to the pumpkin patch on a beautiful warm Sunday afternoon.

Morgan loves cats...
Kernel box instead of a sandbox...this was cool!
This is supposed to be a Dracula...interesting interpretation...what do you expect for $.50?

Some random pictures...
Lobster revisited
Daddy and Brody sorting out lug nuts...

Morgan is doing well in school, it's hard to believe the first quarter is over already. She's really a smart cookie. She's a great speller and a good reader. She is good at math, but she needs to really concentrate. She picks up concepts very quickly and retains them. Looking forward to parent/teacher conferences.
She and Brody have both been sick in the last two weeks. Morgan had a viral bug that kept her with a fever for four days. She was NOT happy about missing school but she did like watching television while lying on the couch. Brody currently has a double ear infection and has been running 103 fever since Friday. Brody has been the doctor twice in three days, two different antibiotics. Hopefully this will be the day that the fever ceases to exist Morgan is feeling much better, although she did have to miss a soccer game two weekends ago. The team said they really missed her! !
My sister and her hubby were in over the weekend and we took some time to go to Gus' Pretzels downtown. Unfortunately, because of Buguloo not feeling well, we didn't spend too much time with them. Morgan was able to go out to lunch with Oma, Bepaw and Beth after her soccer game while I took Brody to the doctor. We are going to have to go back to Gus' and watch them make the pretzels, which they only do until noon. Next time I will try the Salsiccia in a pretzel!!

I will try to do better in updating pictures from Halloween! NO promises though. Be on the lookout for Little Bo Peep and her little black sheep!!
