This was Asa's second year playing, and he did pretty good (once he got over his allergies-he had some serious breathing difficulties the first 2 1/2 weeks of practices and games, coughing and wheezing to the point that he didn't make practices or games those 2 1/2 weeks!) His average, once he got to play, was 3/4 baskets a game!This was Ben's first year and he learned about running while dribbing! He did try a couple of attemps at shooting a basket, maybe next year he'll make a few!
Katy's competition team, INDAR, went to 3 tournaments in October: Boise, Id; Reno, Nv; and Las Vegas, Nv. These photos are from the Vegas Tourney!
Do you remember those Funny Home Videos of the liter of Kittens watching something go back and forth, and ALL of there heads would turn at the same time?
During the Team Pictures at the tournament, something happened of to the right and nearly ALL of the girls looked at once, just as Denny snapped the picture!
And HALLOWEEN!
Harry Potter (Ben)
The Penguin {from Batman} (Asa)

and a Teen Girl Vampire (Katy)
Halloween ends up being a 3 day ordeal here in Nv!
Thursday was the 'last' day of school before Halloween, so it was Halloween Party Day at school-the kids dressed up and got to eat lots of candy and cakes and sugary sweets!
Friday was the day before Halloween, and the weekday off to celebrate Nv Day. There was a parade through town, Sophie got to ride on the Girl Scout Float with her Daisy Troop! Trick or Treat St started today-this is a fire department coordinated/sponsered thing where local businesses 'rent' a door and this fairly elaborate 'faux' city. The kids walk down plywood 'sidewalks' to each door and they Trick or Treat-the businesses hand out More Candy!
Saturday-Halloween Day! Once more, the kids got to go Trick or Treating in the neighborhood! Amazingly, the weather (had been in the 40's Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday) was Nice-no wind, nice 64 degrees at 5pm--Yipee!! No heavy jackets to hide the costumes this year!
