This morning St. Mary's held their fall festival. As room moms we are in charge of the snacks. We brought apples n caramel, popcorn mix, cookies, fruit rollups, and water for the kids to enjoy.
The kids enjoying their goodies. Boy, they sure can eat!
After the snacks the class wanted to play a game called Apples to Apples. It is a fun game to play. The kids laughed practically the whole time.
The "nice" pic. 2 girls are missing. Their home sick with the flu:(
The "crazy" photo. I'm doing a lot of "lasts" this year. Being room mom is one of them. It's sad yet a happy time for Tyler and I. We've made lots of happy memories and look forward to the good times to come.

After a long week of Tyler having the flu, Friday, we headed to Ankeny to celebrate Dad(57) and Chloe's 1st birthday. It was a wonderful weekend of eating, visiting, and shopping. Rich and Andrea were once again the perfect hosts. It was so great to be with everyone and share in their birthdays.

Tyler on the kick return team. He caught the ball and ran it back for 20 yards.
Coming off the field after playing defense. Tyler started defense today at the defensive end position.

Late last week Dr. Frushour released Tyler from his care and therapy. Right after rehab he headed to practice. The team clapped for Tyler when he came running onto the field in his football gear. Tyler got to play in the teams last middle school game of his career. He was quite excited.

We headed to LeMars this afternoon to cheer on the 8th grade football team. Tyler's on the side lines in his black jacket and khaki SHORTS! It was 40 degrees and wind speeds about the same but we bundled up and weathered through it.
After the game Grandma treated us to supper at Mr. P's. She's such a great grandma to cheer on the team when her grandson is on the sidelines.

Friday afternoon we headed to DesMoines to ride with Rich and Andrea in the RV to Kansas City. It was a double feature weekend. ISU game on Saturday. Chiefs game on Sunday. This was Tyler and I's first NFL game. Even though we saw 2 losses we still had a great time. From the tailgating to our inaugural RV showers it was a weekend we will never forget. There are not enough thank yous in the world to tell both of you how much we appreciate and love you. We are so fortunate and blessed!!!On the hill overlooking the parking lot and stadium
