November??!!??!!

WOW - It's been quite a while! Time keeps slipping away! Going faster and faster.....We've just finished the first quarter of school....
 
  Here's what we've been up to in pictures!
 
Mother Appreciation Night - We walked our boys onto the football field and then posed for a pictures! It was a fun evening!  I took pictures of each player with their mom during the dinner and then stayed on the field to take pictures of the game. 
 
 
We celebrated my Dad's 70th Birthday.  We ate at the Crystal Restaurant in Westmont and went back to my parent's house to open gifts and eat cake!
 
 

 
My parents sold their home and are moving...at least that's the plan! They were supposed to close back in September, but there has been numerous delays..... I made a sketch of their current home - so when they FINALLY move into their new home, they can hang this photo that shows where they have lived and raised their family for the past FORTY years!

 
Ryan went to homecoming with a group of friends

 His date was with a girl named Tori
 
Senior Night was in mid October - It was a bittersweet night! We are sure going to miss our Fall Friday Night Games next year! Love this Kid!

I bought a TON MORE necklaces! And YES, I'm starting to run out of space in my Armories!
 
We celebrated Jacob becoming a TEENAGER!

 We had a very tragic event happen in our community this past week.  A little kindergartner who lives in the townhouse/condos connected to our street was murdered by her babysitter.  She attended Brookdale School and was in my very good friend's class this year.  I created the Tagxedo Word Cloud.  The school then framed it and had her classmates sign the mat around the picture.  It was then given to the mother of the victim at her memorial service.  (This happened a week after a football player from Ryan's school was killed in a car accident when "joyriding" with 3 other 15 year olds in the middle of the night). 


 
Monday is the Football Awards Night.  I created an hour long picture slideshow with video for the team.  They will be playing it at the event!  If you'd like to check it out, I have uploaded it to YouTube:
 
Until Next Time.............
