Happy Halloween!

Last week it was a good day to be a Duck...today is a GREAT day to be a Duck! Beating USC is huge. I think Oregon leads the Pac-10 right now. Go Ducks!
On a sad note, Newberg had a big game against Tualatin last night but was not victorious. Was a really great game but we just didn't end up on top. Way to hang in there Tigers.
It has been a long day. The boys were up early to watch ESPN's Game Day which was broadcast this morning from Autzen Stadium. We are still awaiting any late trick or treaters but there just aren't many. We are surprised since it is a Saturday night and there's no rain. Does no one want candy?

Football

It's a good day to be a Duck! The rain let up and the sun came out, what a nice day to be out watching football. Autzen would have been packed but in watching the game today, those Husky fans did not do so well in packing the stands!
Speaking of football, NHS won last night. Whoo hoo! 41-0. Good job boys. Okay, we drive to Forest Grove and the minute we get in the stands it starts to pour. I mean POUR. After about a 30 minute downpour the rain stops and we are able to enjoy the game. Wet players(mine without long sleeves or long socks), wet cheerleaders and wet fans. We are ahead so we figure Jordan might get a shot to play in the game. With four sets of eyes one would think someone would see Jordan get into the game...no, not us! Sorry Jordan. I tried to find your number but no ocho-chinko to be found! I'm sure you did great! Good job, keep it up!

Wedding Bells

September 19, 2010. Andrea has set a date! I opened my e-mail and found this bit of news to greet me this morning. I have high expectations...Andrea is a bit of an overachiever and will plan this event with everything she has. It seems that I have alot to look forward to in 2010. Bryan's baby...a girl? Sydney and Kendahl's graduation. And finally Lucy will have married parents.

I love my family!

Wow. I have the house to myself once again. A bit of peace & serenity. Last week you would have thought it was summer vacation with everyone home. Glad there is school and work this week. I love my family. I love my family more when I have a moment to miss them.

...that time

...6057 hours, 25 minutes and 17 seconds!

Countdown

Seeing a countdown should be exciting. When I see that window counting down to graduation, I just feel so much anxiety. And there's still alot of time to go at this point. Will it be magical when it's time, wonderful, sad or just another day in "my" paradise? Time will tell...
