Soccer, Wildlife Expo


we're really enjoying this fall- we've enjoyed visits from family to watch the boys play soccer. Here's the Yellow Dragons getting ready for a game.


I had a couple assistants for my bench coach job.

last weekend we had a great time at the John Pechmann Fishing Center Wildlife Expo & the Fayetteville international Festival.

K was so excited to catch his first fish- he did it all by himself. James was helping one of the other boys and looked over to see K pulling the fish in. K learned some fishing tips from the magazines he got at the fish hatchery in Georgia- he said he learned to "play the fish." James did help put the catfish back in the pond for next time!
C shooting his first BB gun- they even brought their targets home.
K & C did the casting contest. K got one in the farthest ring by himself- one more and he would have won. We did win a fishing pole in the drawing- C was soooo excited- wish I had a video of his running all the way to the stage screaming!
T had a good time too- here he's wearing 2 pencils- like Pops Leon.
K & C also got to do some archery. It was pretty tough but they enjoyed it.



Papa helping T catching his first fish- C's a little excited for his brother!

KG hung in as long as she could in the stroller but was super happy to have some shade & Nana's lap for a nap.

After the wildlife expo, we headed over to the International Festival. we watched the Native American dancing for a long time.
C & T and I did some round dancing- made Nana remember when I was 3 and was picked by the Chief to lead the dance at a festival in Mississippi when we were visiting Grandmollie.
After watching the dancing, we headed to find some yummy food. The boys were real excited to try food from so many different countries. The only disappointment of the day was missing the Panamanian dancers. but at least we got a picture!

We went home super tired but had a great day.
