TTU VS OU

WE ENJOYED THE TECH GAME ON SATURDAY! IT SURE WAS FUN TO SEE THEM BEAT OU!! I THINK THE KIDS HAD THE MOST FUN SEEING FRIENDS BEFORE THE GAME. GUS GOT TO SEE SAXIE AND PLAY FOOTBALL IN THE PARKING LOT. WE ALL ENJOYED THE GAME INCLUDING SPILLING THREE $5.00 COKES AND DROPPING A LARGE UNEATEN HOT DOG!! WE HAD A GREAT TIME. HALLE IS EVEN LEARNING TO "GET HER GUNS UP!"

POLAR EXPRESS 2009

LAST FRIDAY WE WENT TO LUBBOCK AND TOOK A QUICK RIDE TO THE NORTH POLE! THE KIDS HAD A GREAT TIME AND DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE THAT THE TRAIN ROCKED BACK AND FORTH LIKE WE WERE ON THE OCEAN!! (IT MADE MOM AND DAD FEEL A LITTLE QUEASY!) WE HAD COOKIES AND HOT CHOCOLATE ON THE WAY AND HEARD THE STORY OF THE POLAR EXPRESS. WHEN WE ARRIVED AT THE NORTH POLE (COMPLETE WITH SNOW (COTTON) AND ALL), SANTA AND HIS ELVES HOPPED ON THE TRAIN AND RODE BACK WITH US. GUS HAD WRITTEN A LETTER TO SANTA AND WAS ABLE TO HAND DELIVER IT, AND SAGE MADE SURE HE KNEW SHE WANTED A PURPLE BIKE!

SAGE HAS NOW DECIDED IN ADDITION TO WANTING TO BE A SHAMU TRAINER AND MERMAID, SHE ALSO WANTS TO BE ONE OF SANTA'S ELVES!

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS.......

.....IS MY TWO FRONT TEETH!! (OR MAYBE NOT!)
GUS LOST HIS TWO FRONT TEETH IN THE PAST FEW WEEKS, AND I TOLD HIM NOW YOU CAN "SAY ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS MY TWO FRONT TEETH!" HE WAS PRETTY SURE THAT WAS NOT ALL HE WANTED.

FALL IS HERE

IT MUST HAVE GOTTEN REALLY COLD LAST THURSDAY NIGHT, BECAUSE THE LEAVES STARTED FALLING! WE HAD A BLANKET OF LEAVES IN THE BACKYARD BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON. THE KIDS WERE SO EXCITED WHEN THEY LOOKED OUTSIDE! I BRIBED THEM INTO RACKING UP A HUGE PILE SO THEY COULD PLAY IN THEM! THEY HAD A GREAT TIME RUNNING AND JUMPING.

THEY ALSO DECIDED THEY COULD MAKE "LEAVE ANGELS." THEY DID ALOT OF RACKING, BUT I COULDN'T CONVINCE EITHER OF THEM TO HELP ME HAUL THEM OFF!

FALL CARNIVAL

LAST THURSDAY WAS THE FALL CARNIVAL AT SCHOOL. THE KIDS WERE SO EXCITED TO WEAR THEIR COSTUMES AND PLAY GAMES! SAGE WAS TINKERBELL, AND GUS WAS OPTIMUS PRIME (TRANSFORMER.)
