Madi at the Concert Too

Madi plays the Violin and is sitting in the front with her pony tail and blue ribbon facing the camera the whole time.

All Hallows Eve Strings Concert

Give a listen to Alex' 8th grade orchestra. They are playing the Waltz of the Wicked. He is in the Viola section in the back and can not be seen. But we can hear him.

IT'S ABOUT TIME I DID SOMETHING RADICAL


Ok, so I bit the bullet Saturday and chopped off the hair! I feel so SAASSSYY now. It's a definate change and so much fun. At first, I thought it was going to be harder to do, but I've successfully mastered the roundbrush again. LOVE IT!! It has cut the getting ready time in half!! I know I will miss my long hair on days I sleep late, but too late to mourn... SEE YA

One Room Schoolhouse


Ethan spent last week exploring the world of 19th century America through the education in a one-room school house. Friday was their landrush picnic for families. He looks pretty good in a hat. Check out his string tricks. Nice....

Landon Goes to Homecoming Dance

Landon took his friend Dempsey to her homecoming dance and party this past weekend. They went with a group of 16 kids to a French restaurant(that totally reminds me of the scene from the movie "Better off Dead" where the mother makes Fraaaanch toast and Fraaaanch Fries and Fraaaanch dressing for the French foreign exchange student living across the street......Rickie!!!!!!)

Iowa Soccer Tournament - Enter the Fog

Alex(and the rest of his KC Fusion team) finished 2nd place in a
soccer tournament in Urbandale Iowa last month. This was a cold and foggy Saturday morning. The game had to be postponed for an hour so the frosty grass would survive and so you could see if someone scored a goal. It was a fun weekend for Patrick and Alex to play and eat. We stayed in Ankeny(Patrick and Darci lived in Ankeny 20 years ago). Brought back good memories.
