Kaiden's flat football team started with 6 kids: Kaiden, Alex, Dillon, Hunter, Mason and Patrick. Hunter dropped out for the last few weeks though because he's going hunting with his dad instead. So, we have no sub's and no breaks for the kids. But they have been doing so incredible! This team is amazing. We won all the games this season except 1. Great bunch of kids. I'm sad to see the season come to an end. We've also been enjoying the cooler evenings with some smores around the fire pit.
Connor invited Rachel and her sister, Alejandra over for a Nerf war and board games. Kaiden and Alex joined in on the Nerf war. They all had a blast until Rachel sprained her ankle. Then they came inside to play Taco vs Burrito card game and have some snacks.
This year we decided to go to the Siemers Pumpkin patch at Green Bluff. Kaiden had a blast (which is the reason we went). Connor's to the age where he doesn't care to participate in these events, but he's respectful enough that he will still go because he knows his brother enjoys it. They had a hay bale maze, corn maze with the big castle in the middle, pirate ship jungle gym, blow up slides, tiny toot barrel train, big toot train ride, fresh pumpkin donuts and of course the pumpkin patch itself. We were only there for 1.5 hours. Kaiden would have stayed for another hour playing. Connor was bored. Afterwards we grabbed some lunch at Red Robin and then Connor and I went to Rachel's church with her family for an event.
Kaiden is learning the drums in music class at school. My parents came over to watch one of Kaiden's flag football games and we took them out to lunch at the local Mexican restaurant in ML afterwards. We finally decided to take the water melon off the vine in the garden before it freezes. We've been really lucky this year. We had some 70-80 degree days in May and we've also had some in October! We had a work shower/get together with my friend, Rachel who just adopted a little girl. Starting in the back left corner working to the right around the table it's: Anna, Rachel Jones, Cheryl, Alana holding baby Jayla (who is 2 months old now), Rachel Johnson (aka Mama), Mica, Toni and Regan.
