Picture catch up from Halloween week!

Mason's flag football team got 3rd place in their flag football league!  
Here they are lining up to receive their medals.  Mason was so excited, it was his very first sports medal.  I told him he's gotten a whole bunch of trophies for tractor pulls but he says those don't count because they're too easy 😆

Halloween was on a Monday this year.  Not my favorite day to stay up late, jacked up on sugar.  It ended up being such a nice evening that we went out early and were able to get home early!
The boys ended up going to the same house for their "pre party" which worked out well for me!
Mason was a fisherman, no surprise there!  Made the costume quite easy to gather up.
Kade was...I don't know.  His buddies all tried to scare kids instead of trick or treating.  That lasted for about an hour before they realized they were missing out on a giant bagful of free candy.  So they ditched the scaring plan and headed out with grocery bags.

Mason and his buddies went to the assisted living home first.  It was pretty cute!


Time to hit the streets!


Quite scary, wasn't he?😉


Mason's teacher sent me this.
I giggle every time I see it

MEA

The boys took their 2nd annual trip up to Lake Winnie/Cut Foot Sioux over MEA this year.  Unfortunately I couldn't join again because I had to work but there wasn't much room for me anyway!  The boys were living their best lives, huntin' fishin' and lovin' every day.  The weather was amazing for them but unfortunately for Mason and Erik the fish weren't biting all that much.  Kade and Grandpa, on the other hand, were able to bag a few grouse!
I stayed home with the dogs and enjoyed coming home to a clean house after work, which looked exactly the same as how I left it in the morning!  That's a rare feat with kids 😆 but I was definitely ready for them to come home after the long weekend.




Target practice


They each shot a hole through a quarter



There's a lot more pictures of Mason fishing than there is of Kade hunting, gotta work on Grandpa to get out his camera more!  










No trip is complete without a crawdad picture!  He didn't bring them home this year.
