Lining up for the National Anthem (#34 FISH)

Jeremey and Kayla.....

It was an awesome game... However, it was a nail biter in the last quarter! I thought Ed was going to pace a hole in the ground!!!

Now it is on to Baumholder Germany for the Championships!!! GO MUSTANGS!!!

Great game FISH....!

Final Plays of Homecoming!

Finally I am posting the remainder of the Homecoming photos!!! So much to do and so little time some days!!! This is the Homecoming Royal court... Freshman Prince and Princess; Sophomore Prince and Princess; Junior Prince and Princess and the SEN10R KING and QUEEN!!!!

Yep!!! Jeremey was crowned "KING" of Homecoming!!! The Queen's name is Julie..... He was nominated and elected by his peers!!!

Here are some other photos from the Homecoming Game.... Jeremey is making the tackle (#34)!

FISH (#34) running trying to continue to make it to the end zone!!!! (didn't make it unfortunately!)

Jeremey has had a wonderful start to his Sen10r year! It will only get better as I am sure there is more to come from him as this year continues!!! We have basketball, track, Sadie Hawkins, Prom and then.... GRADUATION!!!!

I guess the sad thing about all of this is that he is our youngest therefore these are the LAST Sen10r moments we will be making with our children... The next ones will be with grandchildren at some point! It has truly been an exciting ride this far and we are fastened up and ready for the next lap!!!! WAHOOOO!

Homecoming Dance..... 2009

Jeremey took a childhood friend that has recently moved to Alconbury as his date to the Homecoming dance this year. Her name is Kelsi and she certainly has grown since the last time we were all together!
I remember when she and Jeremey went to Meadowlark Elementary and would play in the front yard with all of the other neighborhood kids.... She came and stayed with us for the weekend and we had a great time having her hang out with us!
Here are some photos of them.

They had a great time dispite Jeremey's injury in the football game... He was determined to have a great time and they did.... To top it all off Jeremey was CROWNED HOMECOMING KING as well!!! What a way to start off his senior year!!!

We love you and are so proud of you Jeremey!!

HOMECOMING WEEK!

Homecoming Week is always full of excitment - especially when you are a SENIOR!!! Here are a few photos of the LAST spirit week .....

Getting last minute instructions.... Look at studly #34!!!

Are you ready for some FOOTBALL????! Needless to say we played the hardest team in our division. The Mustangs tried their best but in the end fell short of the mark unfortunately... They played a good game and fought a good fight and walked away with their heads held high even though it wasn't the end result we were all rooting for!
Next game is against Rota, Spain; Saturday October 24th.....Then onto Semi-Finals!!!

GO MUSTANGS!

It is that time of year again! The Menwith Hill Mustangs are fighting hard this year... So far so good. We have won against Rota and Alconbury which were 2 of our toughest challenges last year!

Coastal Walks, paddel boats, and Beaches!!!

These photos are not in the correct order - but I am not feeling like taking the time to arrange them at the moment - so.... I will just let you enjoy them as they are...

This first photo is the Playa Calella. We went to an "open air market" there one day.. FABULOUS!!! The photo of the parasailers.... NOT US!!! We did do this the following day though!

We rented a paddel boat for an hour and enjoyed being out in the Med! It was a really warm day and we enjoyed every ounce of Vitamin D we got !!!!

This is a view from out in the paddel boat... Calella beach :0) Enjoying our day together! No phones, TV, dogs, or worries!!!! We did wish the children were with us to enjoy this though!

Paddeling back in to return our boat.... Time to relax on the beach for a bit before heading back for dinner!

This is Playa de Lloret... We took a LONG walk on a coastal path from Playa Fennel which was near our hotel to the next beach around the next cove.... It was a good exercise regime for the day!

As you can see the sun wasn't always out.... but it was very humid this day!! We definately worked up a sweat in NO time!

Enjoying the views as we walked and walked! Us trying to take yet another picture of the two of us on vacation! Next time we will take friends or family along!!!

TOO close!!! Should have worn the sunglasses!!!

This is a castle on one of the cliffs that we walked past....

A nice little cave we climbed through on our walk!

This is the end - but it is where we started on our walk... Playa fennel.. The sand was more like little pebbles then sand... Not a reall good "feel good" factor on the tootsies... but it felt nice and warm!!! To large to make sandcastles out of though!
All in all - it was a wonderful day and we were exhausted by bed time... I think Ed thought I was trying to kill him on this walk - but in the end it was a wonderful day together and it was nice to be with just my soul mate, the sun, sand and be in SPAIN!

Who would have thought that we would be spending our 26th Wedding Anniversary in SPAIN!! I will post more tomorrow... Stop back by if you get a chance!
