The kids all had fun with dress up days last week for Homecoming. Snapped one quick pic of the boys before they rode to school on Hawaiian Day but also "anything but a backpack" day was a fun one for Kylee!
Kylee had a race in Indianola last week- she did awesome but is very hard on herself and wanted a better time. She finished 17th overall though- super impressive!
Friday morning Kylee got up for an early cross country practice and then school then then dinner with friends then the Homecoming game (Garrett got in the game and got a great tackle!) then to Junkyard 5th Quarter. Whew- girl is busy!
Kase had a tailgate party after school then he took off for his first youth group overnight! He and his group of buddies had a great time.
Saturday morning Kylee had a long run then spent the day getting ready for her Homecoming dance! She had organized a great group of 21 kids and they were all very sweet and also thankful that Kent had made the reservation for them at Briarwood so they had a great spot for pictures and dinner!
With no further ado, here are a million pictures of Kylee and her group!
Aww!
They had a great dinner then went to Uptown Dairy then stopped by our house for a bit before the dance. They also came back here for awhile after so that was fun! Kylee ended up at another friend's for a sleepover later in the night and by all accounts had a great time!
Meanwhile, Kase was having a tailgate at his friend's house then a sleepover. He also had a great time but was super stuffy and not feeling 100% but I think he was able to overlook that fact because when we picked him up Sunday morning he said, "Guess what Mom I have a girlfriend!" so he was very excited about this new development.
Kylee came home early and immediately went back to sleep- happy to have had a fun night and super happy to be in her own bed. Kase had a football game.
You guys I could not be more proud of this buddy. We played against a couple of his close friends, one of whom is a phenomenal athlete too. Kase was nervous before the game but man he went out their and played his hardest and he looked awesome. But that's not the best part. After the game (we lost) he went right up to his buddies and said "Great game!" with a big smile on his face. And when we got back to the car he said, "I'm really proud of how I played. I feel happy and that was really fun." He's really growing up and I'm so proud of the young man and athlete he has become.
Later I rode my bike up to watch my nephew's football game. Kylee hung out with her boyfriend and Kent and Kase relaxed then later went for a scooter/bike ride out to Saylorville then stopped for ice cream and a quick visit to Kevin and Kaity's house. Kylee and I went for a walk then caught up on a show we were watching together while her boyfriend had a football practice then later she went to his house. It was a nice, lazy night for all of us after that!
Thankful for a day off school tomorrow!
