Freshman boys
3 day 6th grade field trip to Grafham water, England
Top: Getting ready to kayak!
Bottom : looks like wind sailing?
I think he had a good time despite the fact that I made him go! I'm thankful he didn't get hurt since I made him go against his will. It was like a $140.00 field trip but some of us parents got a portion of our money back, like $30.00 or so because the wives club or some organization donated money after the fact.
Sean at Grafham Water
Kerey Freshman year!
Kerey's had a good first year as a Freshman. Playing with the varsity this year has been a great experience for him. He's about 5'10-5'11 and 168lbs. and has played against kids from 9-12th grade and even some 18-20 year old college kids or shall I say men. That was intimadating for a 14 year old just turned 15 but I think it gave him more confidence.
Kerey and Chloe
What a cute couple!!!
We won!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh my gosh! it was a crazy game. We should of won by more but things happened and some things didn't happen. It was probably the worst game our boys played and with 6 seconds left on the clock and the score was 19-20, gregg kicked a 22 yard fieldgoal. We won, we won!!!!
It was scary and crazy people jumping up in the stands and kids running on the field, one might of thought that we just won the super bowl! One boy jumped up on Kimo and next thing Kimo knew he was flat on his back on the ground, it was funny because the boy got off of him and ran off and left him laying there.
Here is a picture of the Team with tears of Happiness since they are on there way to the Championship game which hasn't been accomplished in like 20 years or something crazy like that.
Kerey's Fan!!!

Aachen, Germany
In December we plan on going to the christmas market in Aachen, Germany. I can't wait to go there because we plan on finding some handblown oranaments, getting chocolate from the chocolate factory, going to the Aachen cathedral and after being frozen and tired we will be going to the Thermal Spa! Yes for some relaxation and to warm up from the cold temps. Here is a Website I found and it looks very cool even though it is a municipal spa it looks pretty luxurious to me. It's a 24 hour trip from home to Germany, day of shopping and back with no hotel stays. We will have to get rest on the way home.

Lets not forget the food too! Yummy! and in that same city they have a cookie called a Printen. I look forward to trying one since it is made there.
Also, another highlight will be to visit the beautiful Aachen Cathedral/ "The Kaiserdom" Charlemagne a.k.a. Charles the Great/ King of Franks was from Aachen and had built the cathedral in 800A.D. It has the swaddling clothes of Christ and his loin cloth he wore on the cross. The cloth of which John the Baptist's head layed on after he was beheaded and the cloak of the Virgin Mary too.
