Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
We never properly celebrated Maxwell’s birthday back in August…so why not do it in November?! I booked a hibachi chef to come to the house and cook for him and a crew of friends outside. Of course I had to make it a little themed and decorated!
Even my drinks were on theme!
The birthday boy was too busy for a pic but this guy wasn’t!
The chef was great, the food was fantastic and it was the best way to celebrate Maxwell!
Happy belated birthday to my favorite 14 year old!
Last week the kids were out of school on Monday for Veterans Day so I took Spencer and some of his buddies to Activate…I can be the fun mom sometimes!
Maxwell actually went to Activate with some friends too and also played bartender at his friend’s sister’s birthday party!
Samantha had a friend spend the night and also got to do a little pre-Christmas wish list making up at the tennis shop! Lots of Lululemon on her list!
Gonna be a great week!
Maxwell’s last game of the season was an exciting one at home – and they won! Now that’s the very best way to end the season!!
A great season worth celebrating!
The DB coach – Coach Robinson…
I’m so proud of my #20!
Special shout out to Samantha the super fan. Spencer somehow ended up having his own football practice every Thursday night so didn’t make it to any of Maxwell’s games but Samantha got dragged along to almost all of them! She was mostly a good sport about it – and definitely liked watching the cheerleaders!
Awesome season, Maxwell! You should be proud of yourself!
Go Spartans!
Maxwell played football for the 8th grade Spartans this year and had a really great season! He played cornerback and started every game and played the majority of every game. Pretty fantastic! He rarely let up a play on his side and had some great tackles.
Of course, Maxwell was all about the drip each week – the turf tape, the scrunch socks, the eye black – it was all perfectly thought out each week! No surprise there.
He did get injured one game – his hand got caught and the trainer was afraid his thumb was broken. They got us set up to see Dr. Ortega at Andrews next morning to get it x-rayed. Thankfully it wasn’t broken but he did get to wear a brace for two weeks.
Love all these boys.
Maxwell even got to be captain for two games which was awesome.
The Spartans didn’t win much but that didn’t really matter – what mattered was that #20 played well! Hard to beat those Thursday night lights!
I sure am proud of this kid and I sure do love to watch him play!
Go Spartans!
That’s a wrap on Bible Club for the fall! We had 6th grade boys on Tuesday mornings and 4th grade girls on Wednesday mornings. That was a lot of early trip to Chick-Fil-A for me! I did get Krispy Kreme delivered for a few of the weeks. I do love getting to see all of the kids in the grade and learn a little bit about how they all interact. The mornings are early but it’s worth it.
This morning, the bible clubs from 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th all met in our front yard and made a giant circle to say the Lord’s Prayer. Pretty neat!
Make it a great weekend!
