School Carinval & State Fair

Isis' school put on a carnival to raise money for the PTO. Tiff volunteered and was working one of the stations. Isis made us do the cake walk four times so that she could win. I must have been bad luck because I was there the first three times and she didn't win. Mike was sick that day, so I took him home. Isis won on her last try when Tiff was with her.



After the carnival, we went to the state fair. Mike still wasn't feeling all that good but he insisted on going. The kids had a great time and we all ate way too much food. We try to go to the fair at least once a year.


The fair had a few new fried foods to try. They had Alligator, Meal Worms, and Scorpion. I was going to try the scorpion but when I saw another person try it, I decided against it. There was no batter on it. It looked like he just picked it up of the ground and ate it. Since I am no fish, the worms were out, so I tried the Alligator. Surprisingly, it was very good and no it didn't taste like chicken. So here is a picture of me eating the gator.

Mike's Homecoming & Isis' Awards Day

Well Mike went to his first Homecoming dance this year. He said he had a good time. He went with his girlfriend. He was a gentleman, bought her ticket and brought her flowers.


Isis had her first awards ceremony at school. She got an award for perfect attendance. She also got one for Citizenship.

Isis & Soccer

Well Isis decided she wanted to play soccer this fall. So far she has stayed interested in it. She practices on Wednesdays and plays her games on Saturdays. They have had two games so far. They have 1 win and 1 loss. The biggest thing tho is that she and the rest of the kids are having a great time playing. Her team is mostly girls with only 3 boys. She plays with 4 to 6 year olds. One of the little boys has a major crush on her. At this age it is all cute and innocent, thankfully hehe.
