muffins for mom


i had the privilege of "eating" breakfast before school with these three at muffins for mom a few weeks ago.  we don't usually go because this mom doesn't like muffins, and they all know this!  but this year, they wanted to go, so i went.  the fare actually consisted of donuts which i don't care for either......but, they LOVE them!  so, we started off the day with donuts and smiles!  i guess that means we'll be back next year!

halloween

this year, we had a cowboys fan, dak prescott, and a referee!  i didn't get a picture of all of them together before the night started, but i got the referee before they went out hunting for candy!


a blurry referee and karate kid on the trailer!


this was post trick or treating, and everybody has 3/4 of their costume on.  it's the best i could do.  they are hard to keep up with these days!



checking out their loot!


good thing we know a good dentist!!

fall tennis

we have a played a little tennis this fall in between soccer games and trips to starkville.  reed actually got in on the action.  he did not win his first attempt at the sport, so he was not too happy.  but, he was ready to go again as soon as it was over!!  however, when this is your pre-match routine....i'm not too sure how much you should really expect!!  ha!!


his brothers were slightly more successful!



but he did get a taste of winning at a tournament in oxford a few weeks later!  he teamed up with his buddy, walker, from cleveland.  they had a blast all weekend....on the court and off!







we had a few fans at the river hills tournament!


and we finished it up at reunion.  it was fuh-reezing in the mornings, but it was perfect by the afternoon.  wes and william both made new friends (and doubles partners)....maxwell and ross!  i think we will be pairing up with these guys again!  making it to the finals isn't all that bad, though neither wes nor ross was all that happy!



this weekend finished up with reed managing to lock himself in the bathroom.  it was a single room, and he was freaking out.  i'm surprised all courts near the clubhouse didn't call lets for the disturbance.  we had to talk to him through the door to get him to step away from the edge and calm down in order to get him to unlock the door.  goodness.  it's definitely time for a break!  good thing basketball season is right around the corner!!

best of show

wes was selected to display a piece of his artwork at the lifeway art fair last week.  it was in the mix with others from 1-5 grades.  they all had something to do with creation.



he ended up winning!  who knew??  he got best of show and brought home a certificate and a gift card to hobby lobby.


he said, "it's a still life of fruit.  i call it PEARS."  he is very original!!!  way to go, wes!
