We've been busy busy busy these past three weeks in October!! Here are the highlights:
Peter and I joined our friends Mel & James for a double-date night to a comedy show - on a SUNDAY NIGHT!!! Eek - we feel so old staying up past our bedtime. But it was a lot of fun!
The boys went paint balling for their first time - and are hooked! It was for a friend's birthday party. All the dads joined in too. Peter just couldn't resist.
Clifford got braces sooner than expected! His retainer broke so we took him in, expecting to pay the $200+ to get a new one. Dr. Teng happened to noticed that Clifford's bottom teeth appeared to have shifted. New x-rays were needed, but the machine was done so we had to return the following week. Returning for x-rays showed just how messed up Clifford's bottom teeth were - teeth crowded, some coming in at an odd angle, one permanent tooth actually missing. Fast forward to the NEXT week and in we go to sign our (financial) life away (Honestly, wasn't too bad. We got a discount because of Dr. Teng not noticing this sooner, and the financial gal worked with us with a great payment system). Pics below are of Clifford getting top braces on. Bottom braces will come next week to spare him so much discomfort.
Clifford doubled up on sports this Fall. He did Cross Country for the Middle School (he even made district finals!!!!) and Soccer with his team he's played for the past 3 years.
(they run rain or shine!)
(District Finals!!!)
(Clifford is the one moving up and passing 4 participants)
(Go Blue Lightening!!)
We made a weekend trip down to Yakima to attend Chealsae's Quinceanera (she's the oldest daughter of family friends Maria and Joel). It was quite the event (and experience for us!). Chealsae looked beautiful and grown up!
