OUR Alex Morgan -

Paige is playing fall soccer again this year.  This year they go to a practice one day and a game on Saturday afternoons.  Her league is 1st and 2nd grade girls.  I must say, they are pretty good!  We were able to get on the same team as our friend, Caroline, in the neighborhood.  Paige definitely holds her own.  She is great on defense and even scores goals on offence.


First day of practice -
Ali is a great cheerleader.  She yells "GO PAIGE" even when she is on the sidelines -
On goalie -
The obligatory participation trophy.  Love it!
The dream team, they were actually pretty good.  Even though they don't keep score, everyone keeps score.  They only "lost" one game all season -

Thanksgiving is almost here!

Thanksgiving is a favorite meal for many people.  Apparently, Luke is not one of them.  I found this in an activity book Luke recently completed.  
He is too funny sometimes.


Pics of fall...before it is gone :(

Our tree in the back is a fiery red.  Beautiful and fading fast...

Screenplay

Luke and his little buddy across the street are writing a screenplay.  We aren't allowed to ask or see in the folder but they get together and work on it.  






 Luke is super creative.  We took the kids to the Chateau for lunch one day.  Luke flipped over his place mat and began to draw.  He did all of this before our food came.  He brought it home and filled the page with even more characters.  It's amazing to me.  Where does he come up with this stuff!?

Monkey See, Monkey Do, Monkey I Love You!!!!



Backpack Basketball

I think this one is called backpack basketball.  Jay and Luke made it up.  Forgot the fact that we have an actual basketball door hoop.  This, for some reason, was much better.

Elmo

Ali is in her "I'm obsessed with Elmo" stage.  Every kid goes through it.  Anytime she sees anything 
Elmo she goes nuts.  She saw a little boy dressed up as Elmo for Halloween, I thought she was going to jump on the kid.  I had to restrain her.  

Angie bought her an Elmo a few weeks back.  She put him to bed in the American Girl bed.  

Nite nite Elmo!
