November and sneaking into December!!

 November was Good and Busy!!

Jeremiah has started taking Drum practice - and he is really enjoying it!

Jeremiah went to a cool birthday party where they showed us many rare animals - that we got to touch. (A little alligator!! )  

We had a nice week of Thanksgiving Preparations: raking and making cookies!!

Our Thanksgiving was filled with fun/food/family.  (And we shared covid with everyone.)

We've been home relaxing for a while...

This was one of Adley's lego projects...came out good!

Adley finished off his Football Season in Second place at the Small Technical High School playoffs. A close game 51-52 on Dec 3rd.

The Rink has been boarded!  We're ready for ice!

Happy November!

Adley's Finger

 Poor guy, 

Dislocated his finger in warmups to a football game on Monday.  The trainer wouldn't touch it and sent him for x-rays. Our Primary Care Doctor ordered x-rays - but wouldn't touch it so we called the Orthodontist.

See his x-ray:

Ouch!  Popped perfectly back into place 

Horary!!

Just 3 weeks in a removable splint!  

Happy Halloween!!

 We had a wonderful day!  Nathanael finished off his flag football season with a win - but didn't make it to the 'Flag Bowl'.  His friends were in the Flag Bowl, so we went to watch.  They lost, but it was a super nice day for a game.

In the evening, Jeremiah went to a buddies house.

Alien Jeremiah!!

Nathanael trick or treated with two buddies in our neighborhood.

Nathanael is a Minecraft Enderman (box head.)

Adley was a football spectator watching football downstairs.

Happy Halloween!

Friday Pumpkin Carving!!

 Better Late than Never!

We (well 2 of us, the other dude had a football game and lost - so sad,) carved our pumpkins Friday night.

We made some pumpkin seeds too! YUM!

Jeremiah made the face from the Nightmare before Christmas (Pumpkin Jack) and Nathanael made an Iron Armor image from the video game he plays, Minecraft!

We are excited for some Sunday Trick or Treating!!!

Doctor Visits Today

Nathanael weighs 133 lbs in the 86th % and increased by 8 lbs. this year.  He is 29 lbs heavier than Adley was at 13.  He is 5 ft 6 1/2 inches in the 87th % - he grew 2 1/2 inches this year.  He is half an inch taller than Adley when he was 13... (watch out Adley. :) )  Nathanael is very proportioned....just one percentage point difference from height and weight. :) 

Jeremiah weighs 88 lbs in the 79th % and increased by 9 lbs.  He is 3 lbs. heaver than Nathanael at 10, and 14 lbs heavier than Adley at 10.  He is 5 ft on the dot today in the 94th %, he grew 2 inches this year.  He is 2 inches taller than Nathanael at 10 and 3 1/2 inches taller than Adley when he was 10.

Everyone is healthy!  

Grampie Football Weekend

 Grampie came down for the weekend to watch some football and visit.

We went to Adley's Friday game where they were wearing pink for breast cancer. 

He was 85 in this game.  The Vikings were winning at the half, then it was such a close game.  We were up by 1 point - but couldn't hold it.  (Adley didn't play but it was a great game to watch.)  

Final score 45 - 52

Saturday Nathanael had a 10:30 game - the Saint's lost, and Jeremiah had a noon game but the Patriots lost.

We threw frisbees and played board games. Had a great visit. 

Wow, Lots of things!!

 I will share our September FuN:

We have been enjoying watching this HUGE praying mantis. He eats Bees - hold and munches.  We've seen him a lot. He's sitting on the sedum.

We are studying Ancient History - and Jeremiah Mummified his favorite stuffed animal panda - with toilet paper. 

We enjoyed Apple Picking - but who wants to wait for mom!?!? 

I am pleased how my front flowers look this fall!

Nathanael and Jeremiah had a very foggy football practice on night!

We visited the Saugus Iron Works (10/8) with a buddy - This was working in 1660 (Just 40 years after the pilgrims landed....wow right!  Britain was begin deforested in all their industrial mills so lets get a head start in the America's.  It was very interesting!  We got a great tour.)
