Past week recap

This last week consisted of bikes, football, and candles!

Last Saturday and Sunday Kyle had the Newton Cross out Crohn's cyclocross races. He did well and had fun. Results here.
Alexa and I made it to Sunday's race and she had a lot of fun playing with the Reese triplets and just being outside.

Kyle's seat broke on the first lap...here he is letting us all know.

Jump those barriers!Pushing hard...Isn't she a little diva!

On Friday I headed up to Marcus to see my nephew Justin play Football. It is his senior year and up until a week ago he was quarterback. The Friday before last he fell on his hand and dislocated his thumb. A sports trainer popped it back in that night. On Tuesday he went for an MRI and he has a chipped bone at the base of his thumb. So no more quarterback for the rest of the season unless he can get his grip back in the next 3 games. He had some great plays on Friday night and did just as good as running back and defensive end. Yep small town IA, the boys play the entire game!

On Saturday my Mom had a candle party, I think I'm getting all her friends hooked on Gold Canyon...she had few guests, but a GREAT party!
Then we just bummed for the rest of the weekend. Alexa helped rake leaves and just had a ton of fun playing with her cousins.

Taking a break to watch Grandpa mow the yard...
