Hope you all had a SPOOKTACKULAR Halloween!

The Canadian stretch of the trip-

I know it is picture overload. Believe me when I say this is only a FEW of what I took. I will spare you all my giddiness and excitment about Anne of Green Gables!

New York, Boston, Maine, and CANADA!

For my Anniversary and my birthday Chad sent me with his Mom and Aunt on a 16 day trip to New York, Boston, Portland Maine, Bar Harbor Maine, Halifax- Nova Scotia- Canada, Quebec city- Quebec- Canada, and Prince Edward Island- Canada. Here are some of my artsy pictures from the trip. For those of you who know me very well you know I am obsessed with the books Anne of Green Gables and so going on this trip was pretty exciting for me. For some reason Chad wasn't as excited about it so he sent me by myself. There were places that I definitly would love to go back with my whole family. This slide show is NYC, Boston, Portland- maine, and Bar Harbor- Maine and the one on top is of all the Canada Ports, Halifax, Quebec City, and Prince Edward Island.

And the Sports Season Ends!... For Now.

I am way behind in blogging, but I am only going to bore you with the most recent events. Braden's football team made it to the final four in the mini-bowl- it was very exciting! We won't talk about the last game because it wasn't good, but the game that got them to the final four was super exciting! They played Logan and Logan was ahead by 2 to 3 touchdowns the whole game. Our boys were just playing flat. There was only 4 minutes left and the score was 37 to 20 Logan. We all thought ok the game is over the boys aren't playing well and the coach told them ok if you want to make something happen you have to do it now - it's up to you boys. By this time most of them looked defeated. Then one of the boys took the ball and ran a touchdown and then they got the extra point and it was our turn to kick it off to Logan and the same kid ran and got the ball so our offense got another shot at a touchdown. All the boys kind of looked at eachother and said ok we can do this and on the 2nd down we got another touchdown. Long story short we caught up so the score was 38 to 37 for us and there was still 2 minutes for logan to score. Our defense wasn't going to let them get by and held them for 2 minutes. It was so exciting I screamed so loud that I lost my voice that night! I use to think football was boring but, now I have a whole new appreciation for the game and the heart it takes to play.

Austin's team did well. They didn't get to move up a division but they didn't get bumped down either. I think Austin wants to move up and we're good enough to move we just need more team work.

London actually ran at the last game which was an improvement. I think she only plays so her dad can coach her and give her the attention her brothers get.

Since the seasons have ended Chad has been resting up after coaching all 3 teams and we are excited to have the next 2 months off until indoor and basketball start.
