Fun with Family

The Pumpkin Festival was fun! Even though there was rain, we went to the parade. It was a lot of politicians and bands with percussion and kazoo's instead of woodwinds (fear of getting those woodwinds wet), but there was candy! We sat in front of Eli's and had great seats.

The best part was having my family together, well mostly. We were missing Michele and Todd. We talked and hung out when braving the rain wore us out.

This week I have had more fun with my immediate family. Band practices, cross country practices, Praise Team practice, and the gym kept me running this week.

Speaking of running, Joey completed his first "real" cross country meet. It was out at Detwiller Park. He ran a 2 mile course. I am proud of him that he is getting out there and doing it, although not entirely by choice.

On another kind or running, this week is homecoming at Morton High School. Andy was nominated for the Homecoming Court. I have never really gotten into that whole thing, but I think Andy will have fun with it. So this week will be a fun kind of crazy for Andy. Andy and Joey will be playing in both the Homecoming Parade and the Homecoming Game. They both play the same instrument and in the same position, so at the game they will be standing together on the field when they play.

John is traveling this week. He is off to a place that claims to have the World's Largest Potato Chip. Can you guess where he is going?

Love to all!!!
