Are YOU a mom? Are YOU missing from the pictures? Most moms I know are, but here is a fun meme that brings us moms out from behind the camera and puts US in the spotlight! Carin over at Forever in Blue Jeans is the hostess of this year long picture project; and just think, after a year, you will have at least 52 pictures with you in them! It can be scary, but com'on, give it a try! It's easy, all you have to do is hand over the camera and smile (or not, it is completely up to you!!). And the best part is, you can jump in and start whenever; for me this will be my 37th week!
You all know that I love Colin's teacher, who was also Brendan's teacher last year! Well each month she assigns book reports in different genres and types. In September they had to do a Cereal Box Report. For October the genre was sci-fi and the type was a story skeleton! Colin read Aliens for Lunch and this is how his story skeleton turned out! I helped him decide what to write, although he had to come up with the ideas since I have not read the book! He wrote all the cards and I put it together with paper clips...each 'bone' has a different element of the story on it such as characters, setting, problem, problem resolution, and what Colin liked about the book. The 'head' of the skeleton was the main character's face! I think he did a great job, if I do say so myself...oh wait, I just did!Friday night WCHS played at DVHS against the Sky Hawks for their season closer. This was the most pumped up I have seen the team all season...they were ready to play some football.
The Wildcats pumped up for the game...

Last hand shakes of the season
What a fun game...and that is the end of the Wildcat season!
Great game Cobras!
And with that, our football season has come to an end!
Pam over at Your Gonna Miss This is the hostess of this weekly meme that helps you to remember and cherish the little things in life!
Last Saturday was Halloween. I told my boys that I WAS NOT buying costumes this year, so it was up to them to get creative with the things they could find around the house. At first Brendan said that he didn't even want to go...gasp...what?! But it was his choice, so I didn't push the subject except to give him a few costume options...how about a football player, baseball player, nerd, doctor, old man, old lady, cheerleader????? All were shot down except the doctor. Something about wearing daddy's old scrubs intrigued the boy!! But he didn't want to be just an ordinary doctor..."Mom can I be a dead doctor?" WHAT...how morbid! But it's just in fun and I must say I think he turned out kinda cute! And it wasn't until Saturday afternoon that Colin decided to be a baseball player! He wore his uniform from last season. And for whatever reason they both decided that they could not smile for any pics...reason being Brendan be dead and Colin be tough of course!!
We went to our church's trunk or treat this year and they had lots of fun! Our neighbors joined us too! Kenny was an alive doctor and Stephanie was Wonder Woman! I had so much fun passing out candy and being able to see all of the costumes! Usually I am the one to walk the boys around, but since we were in a safe place and they were with friends, we let them walk around by themselves! There was costume contests, car decorating contest, best Pastor Lee look alike and lots and lots of candy! I actually ran out of candy (had 2 ginormous bags from Sam's Club) so the boys went through there loot to share the candy that they were not fond of! They are just too sweet!
Good thing they just saw the dentist!!!
The Wildcats were up against the tough team of Jaguars last Friday. I must say that this is my least favorite school to come to. I am not one to judge, but I just don't like the people there...they are kinda snobby and not very nice to the visiting team. Their team (or rumors of their team) pooped in the visiting team's (our) locker room before we got there as a kind of welcome present for our boys...wasn't that nice of them?! GROSS!!!
Well anywho...back to football...cuz it all about the football...it's always about the football!!! Here is Ryan doing his coaching thing. He is on the right with the head coach Hud standing on the left. Not sure who the guy in the middle is!! (I think it is a player taking stats, but not sure)
Not sure how I captured this beauty...but I love it!
It is one of Ryan's players taking down the quarterback! You go boy!!!
Wildcat defense lined up on the ball
If you are on defense...always go where the ball is!

This was taken last week of me and my teacher friend Crystal. Last Friday was her last day until January because today she is being induced to have baby Zachary! I am so excited for her and her hubby David! I'm not gonna lie though...I am really missing having her at school!! But I can't wait to meet Zachary!
