Winning Ways

If you know anything about our family you know we like competition. The thrill of victory is definitely more enjoyable than the agony of defeat. Well we couldn't be prouder of Kade and Sydney after their latest displays of "athletic" prowess. Friday after school the Middle School students put on a back to school party, "Mexican Fiesta" for the whole school.  There was great food and several Fiesta games. The Limbo, Pass the Sombrero, and the Nacho Eating contest to name a few.

In the Pass the Sombrero contest Kade was the last man standing proving that no one can touch his hat taking on and off skills. In the Nacho Eating contest Sydney and her partner Sarah were unstoppable. Sarah stood behind Syd and used her arms to stuff Syd's face full of some macho nachos. Sydney may have a future in competitive eating because she looked like Joey Chestnut, the reigning Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Champion. She crushed the competition. After the contest they opened up the buffet line for some great mexican food. Most of it was prepared from the homes of the Mom's and it was all very good. Sydney however was not up for seconds.

Some other big news is that we received conformation that our shipment will be here on Tuesday.  We are very excited to say the least!  It was originally scheduled to come on Wednesday but we have an inservice here at school on Wednesday thru Friday that both Kathi and I have to attend.  So our Principal made some calls and they are now bringing the container on Tuesday evening so we can get it.  Otherwise we would have to wait until next week to get it.  Tuesday night will be crazy but it will definitely be worth it.

We all hope you are having a great weekend and that you are all happy and healthy!
