The rest of my October post

Okay, I got distracted and didn't finish my post for October. Some of our fall fun included pumpkin carving and science experiments curtesy of Chick fil A. Jud liked pumpkin carving except for the nasty pumpkin guts. What you won't see on this post is me up to my elbows in pumpkin. Marc did the baking soda and vinegar experiments with Jud. I wasn't real sure it was a good idea to teach Jud to blow things up in any form but what is a mama to do, I got out voted. I did convince tem to take it outside.

October

Well October has flown by. We have been really busy. We have had a few minutes here and there to do some fun stuff at home.
Jud has started his first season as a mite, so he now plays competitive hockey. He had his first game last Saturday and did pretty well. He is very proud of his new Blues sweater and socks. He looks pretty good on the ice even if I do say so.

Field Trip

Marc and I helped chaperone Jud's class field trip. They walked to the fire station, took the tour, and headed back. I realized there is a good reason I am not a kindergarten teacher, and have a deep respect for those who are. The kids were really good, but that much energy all together is exhausting. Oh, and in the top picture, Jud is the one making the face on the far left. That's my boy.

Shoot Out

Jud was invited to participate in a shoot out at a recent Texas Tornado hockey game. It was a lot of fun.

I had some free time and decided to use Jud's old stick as decor. Those scrapbooking skills come in handy.

Just more skating

Jud got a new hockey sweater from Nona and Papaw. Not sure he has ever really seen the Sharks, but he likes the logo. He and Coach Jay have been having some great sessions. He's doing so well. We are excited that he is playing mites now. His team is the Blues, we will let everyone know a game schedule so you can all come cheer him on.
