Yesterday was Elizabeth Birthday, she is 15 yrs old. Wow, I can't believe I have a 15 yr. old. It has went so fast, but I can't complain she is a good girl!!
Elizabeth, Olivia, and I went to Wal-Mart to goof around while the boys were at football practice. Olivia tells Liz to pick out roses, that she is going to buy her roses for her birthday. I thought that was so sweet, she bought them with her own money. They are beautiful as you can see in the pictures. I had to take one of Princess laying in front of them. She thinks she owns everything. Anyways, it was a nice gesture on Olivias part. I think Liz was really happy that her sister bought her flowers for her birthday.
Last Saturday the boys had football games and Trevs' was at 8am in the morning. It was so cold. As you can see, everyone was bundled up, even the players. I kind of dinked around, going to get water for the boys. I didn't really want to sit out in the freezing cold. We were babyed for most of the season with mild weather. After we dropped off the water, Eric & I went to the gas station to get hot cocoa & cappuccino to stay warm. We got back about half time. Erics game was a little better, then the sun went behind some clouds and it got cold again. Both teams lost on Saturday, but both teams played their little hearts out and that is all we can ask for. 
We found out last week, Olivia has to get her tonsils and adenoids taken out. It is scheduled for the first of November. It works out pretty good, she can still try out for Honor Band and she can try out for Basketball. The Honor Band doesn't start in till the last of Nov. and the first Basketball game is Nov. 14, so she will probably miss the first couple of games, but she will be healed for band. Eric had his out when he was 4 and he bounced back by day 2, but I think he was so young it didn't bother him to much. This is for grandma-- I asked mom and she said she thought I had mine out when I was a kid. I don't remember, but she was almost positive I did. So the past couple of weeks have been pretty busy with birthdays, band concerts, football games, & teacher conferences. I am pretty sure it probably won't slow anytime soon either. The boys are excited for Halloween and I think the girls are pretty psych about it to. We are actually going to hand out candy on one of the days. I am pretty excited about handing out candy, this neighborhood has more kids and maybe we will actually get trick or treaters this year. The boys will have a blast answering the door dressed up and handing out candy to their friends. Great Times!!
