Halloween 2018

 For Halloween 2018 Josh and I didn't have too much time to put together a costume.  WE were Mary Poppins and Bert.

 Middle school limits the costumes that these boys were willing to be.  They chose to be Atlanta Hawks basketball players, one live, one dead.  This year Palmer went to a party instead of trick or treating.  Growing up.

 Draco Malfoy

 McKay was excited to be an Indian Chief, since his new school mascot are the chiefs.  

Family photo at our ward trunk or treat at Hunter's Christmas Tree Farm.  It was a great Halloween!

 I love to see what my seminary kids dress up as for Halloween.  Here are Savannah and Mattie as M&Ms.  They are the cutest!

 Jackson As Rex from Napolean Dynamite.  So funny!

 McKay and Hunter went trick or treating with Grayson and Christian Peterson, and Aden and Drew Baxter.  They got so many full sized candy bars!

 Lincoln went trick or treating with his buddy Ryan (who he goes with every year.  It's tradition :)

Halloween Sugar Cookies

 I failed on taking pictures this year.  This is all I got of us decorating Halloween sugar cookies.  It was fun and we made some pretty cool looking cookies!

Viper Football Banquet

Palmer's football banquet was catered by Jim N Nick's which is our favorite place for BBQ.  It was so yummy!

 What a wonderful year it was for Palmer on this football team.  We enjoyed it too.  It was a great experience for all of us.

 This coach is amazing.  He helps the boys to become more than just football players.

 Palmer's buddy on the football team Logan Fox.  He tore his ACL during one of the beginning games.  Poor kid.

 Palmer received an award for good grades in sports.

 They got these rocks to symbolize their "6th championship rock", beanies and a bag full of goodies.  It was a fun year!

Hunter's Last Primary Program

I love the primary program and will miss seeing Hunter up there.  This was his last one!  Thank goodness I still have McKay singing to me!

Lantern Festival

 It's been on my bucket list forever to do a lantern festival.  These sky lanterns are illegal in Georgia because of all of the trees, so we traveled to Alabama to do this festival.

 It was seriously amazing!  On of the dreamiest things I have ever seen.

 Lincoln had football and McKay stayed with a friend for this little activity.  Hunter brought his buddy Grayson and we had a lot of fun.

 Josh and I did a "lantern of love." :) Do you see where it says J+E?

All A's!

 My friend sent me a few pictures of Palmer and Lincoln at the All A's party at the school.  Super proud of these smart kids!

West Forsyth Football-Viper Night

 Vickery Creek Middle school got to be recognized for winning the county championship at the West Forsyth Football game.  

 They got to watch the pregame warm ups from down on the field and then each of them were announced by name.

 It was the "pink out" game from breast cancer awareness.  

 Palmer is always last because his number is 92.

 Love that boy!

I wish I had gotten better pictures!  Way to go Vipers!

Forsyth County Championship

 Vickery Creek Middle School has won the county championship football game 5 times and the Viper football team was dying to make it 6.  They won it last year against the same team they were playing.  It was so nerve wracking!

 Honestly I loved having all the football games to watch this year.  It's just such a fun atmosphere!

 After the first kick off it went to their biggest, fastest player and he got through all of the team.  It looked like they were going to get a touch down and Palmer had to take him down.  We were so proud of him!  He totally stopped him!

 Palmer got the wind knocked out of him a bit.  His team all ran up to him after and told him how well he did.

 Good job Palmer!

 This game was so crazy and fun.  Dad said it was one of his favorite games ever to watch.

 Fourth quarter

 Talking with the coach about his kicks.

Our friends the Bascoms came to watch Palmer play.

 Trying to get everyone excited about the game.  I don't know that we needed any encouraging.  It's the loudest most crowded game I've ever been to.

 Go Palmer!

 They won!!

 His friend Jay put him on his shoulders so he didn't get pushed to the back.

Such a fun experience for Palmer (and us)!
