Owen’s first hunting trip

Owen went with Chris and my dad to the lease a couple of weeks ago.

002

They said he did AWESOME!!!!

He was very quite and “on the look out”.

003

Of course it isn’t deer season, they were hunting hogs…they saw several, even shot at one.

Owen has a BLAST!!!!  This is the first of many, many hunting trips.

By the way….Ella and I had a girls day Smile  Pedicures, manicures and a movie.

Round Up

Last month Wee School had their annual fundraiser. 

We ate yummy fajitas, had a silent auction, live auction and watch the precious children sing!

005

Owen wasn’t real excited to sing in front of an audience.

007

Ella had a blast….she doesn’t have a shy bone in her body.

024

We won Ella’s class project in the live auction.

Soccer

008

Ella is not much into soccer this season.

We decided that she would not play next season, until she is interested again.

She really dreads the games…she tells me she can’t win every game. 

I’m wondering if she means that she and one other girl (there are 6 on a team) are really the only 2 that are aggressive.

I’m hoping she wants to play again, she is too good to not ever play again.

We have had fun this season…only 2 more games.
