SOCCER GIRLS

WELL THIS NOVEMBER AUBREY & LOLO WRAPED UP THEIR SOCCER CARRER HERE IN LONGVIEW. RICKY WAS THEIR COACH THIS SEASON AND IT WAS JUST AS FUN WATCHING HIM AS IT WAS THE GIRLS. CALEB HAD FUN PLAYING ON THE SIDE LINES WITH AUBREY OR LOLO, WHOEVER WASN'T PLAYING AT THE TIME.
LOLO PLAYED FOR THE WILDCATS AND AUBREY PLAYED FOR REVOLUTION.
GRANDDADDY AND GRANDMOMMY TOOK TURNS ENTERTAINING THE BOYS.
CALEB MIGHT PLAY SOCCER ONE DAY, MAYBE NOT WITH A PINK SOCCER BALL.
CINDY & I WERE FREEZING! LOLO WAS TOO BUSY RUNNING AROUND WITH CALEB TO BE COLD.
AUBREY GOT A LOT BETTER OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS. SHE RUNS LIKE A GAZELLE. GO AUBREY GO!
HERE IS THE FAN BASE FOR AUBREY & LOLO! G-MA & G-PA WERE THERE TOO JUST NOT IN THE PICTURE. WE ARE GOING TO MISS THE SATURDAY GAME.
WE'LL MISS YOU GIRLS!

ALPINE'S TRUNK OR TREAT

We had so much fun getting ready for this night. I love to dress up and if any one wants to have a costume party... I'M THERE! Last year caleb was Charlie Brown. He hardly had any hair so we had to draw a curl on his head, remember?
Well, this year I found and awesome pair of PJ's at Target (the most awesome store) and it inspired me to match him. Two super-heros. SUPERMAN My costume was not homemade and awesome like Stacy Neal's, but it was fun.
Aubrey was LUCY from Narnia, Lolo was Super Girl, Cooper was Diego Maradona the soccer player. Grandmommy was herself. By the way, Caleb has started calling her NaNa, it's cute.
Coopy Maradona pulling Grandaddy's ear. He has such a sweet personality. He's sitting up, crawing and now pulling up on everything. It's great!
Superman gets tired some times. He was resting before he flew over all of his citizens.
Here is my fun family: Chris is a Guitar Hero, Amy is a little girl, Ricky & Coopie are soccer players, Caleb and I are superman, Aubrey is Lucy and Lolo is supergirl. And if you look closely Cindy, who is preparing for a big move, has 3 wonderful kids and is married to my crazy brother, well she's SUPERMOM!
WELL, HERE'S G'MA AND LUCY. SUPERMAN LOOKS AWFULLY INTERESTED IN WHAT SHE'S DOING WITH THAT TOUNGE.
CALEB GOES BANANAS WHEN LOLO GETS AROUND, HE'LL LET HER DO ANYTHING. SMILE BOY!
OK, AT 38 MATCHING MY KIDS COSTUME WAS FUN, BUT... I WAS WEARING BLUE SPANDEX THAT SHOW EVERY INPERFECTION OF MY ROBUST BOTTOM, AND.. I WAS WEARING A PAIR OF RED PANTIES ON THE OUTSIDE OF MY TIGHTS. IT WAS FUN WALKING AROUND WITH THAT BIG RED CAPE, AND THANK GOODNESS IT COVERED UP THE BIGGEST PART OF ME!
HERE SUPER BECKY IS HOLDING SUPER CALEB AND SUPER PETE SILVERTHORN. THERE WAS ONE MORE LITTLE SUPERMAN THERE THAT NIGHT GRANT HOOD.
HERE COMES GUITAR HERO WITH OUR BABY SUPERMAN. THEY ARE HEADED INSIDE TO DO SOME CHILI TASTING.
WE RAN INTO THE NORTONS. THEY HAD TWO PIRATES AND KINIZIE WAS WEARING A POODLE SKIRT.
CHRIS FOUND HIS BUDDY DAVID AND THEY WERE BOTH GUITAR HEROES.
FUN AUNT AMY WITH THE GIRLS. AND THE BOY. AMY'S CHILLI GOT 3RD PLACE. IT PROBABLY WOULD HAVE WON IF SHE WOULD TAKE THOSE STINKEN MUSHROOMS OUT!
THE WHOLE NORTON CLAN. IT LOOKS LIKE THE SMALLEST PIRATE PASSED OUT!
I PUT THIS PICTURE ON HERE BECAUSE CALEB IS EATING HIS FIRST SUCKER. WE COULDN'T GET IT AWAY FROM HIM AND IT GOT EVERYWHERE! HE DROPPED IT AND IT HAD HAY ON IT AND HE DIDN'T CARE. I FINALLY WRESTLED IT FROM HIM AND GAVE HIM SOME MILK INSTEAD. HE DIDN'T THINK IT WAS AN EVEN TRADE.
EVERY CHANCE I GET I TAKE A GROUP PICTURE OF THE PRUITT'S NORTONS AND CALEB. THEY'RE COUSINS AND IT WILL BE HARD TO MAINTAIN THAT CLOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE PRUITT'S GONE BUT WE'LL HAVE TO TRY.
WHAT A FUN EVENING, IT WAS JUST TOO SHORT.
I WANT TO HAVE A FALL CELEBRATION LIKE STACY SUGGESTED. WHERE WE PLAN TO DRESS UP IN FUN COSTUMES, PLAN GAMES, RACES, CRAFT. HAVE A PIC NIC AND DO IT IN THE PARK. KEEP IT IN MIND AND LET'S ALL START BRAINSTORMING.
