Some you Win, Some you Don't



Another busy week has gone by. They seem to go faster and faster and I need them to slow down a little bit. Alex had a football game today and played well but they didn't come out winners. It was tied 0 to 0 with 1 minute left in the game. Alex's team fumbled on the handoff to the QB and the other team got them ball on around the 10 yard line. They held them up to 3rd down and then one of the opponents slipped by and scored. Rough end to the game but they did well. Alex was very bummed out big time. Besides playing offense and defense, he did get to do the only punt of the game and did fine. It had a huge amount of hang time (almost too much as it went up more than down the field) but then it took some huge bounces to our benefit. I have posted a picture of him with his punt.

Elyse had two volleyball games at the beginning of the week. Her team won both sets, one against a very good traveling AAU team from Osage. It was definitely fun to watch! I have posted a picture of her and her cousin Miranda, the setter, getting ready for switch in positions. They play together very well as Elyse is a hitter/blocker. Next game, this coming Thursday.

Wayne has been on his golf trip now since Thursday. Sounds like he is having a great time and golfing A LOT! I had a grad class all day Saturday, which was not fun, so I am now trying to catch up on school work. Stalling. . .big time. Next weekend. . . .Iowa State vs Army football in Ames! Who will I cheer for???? Can't wait!
