happy thanksgiving!

We had another wonderful Thanksgiving celebration at the Armstrongs' house this year! Bill, Grandma, Lance, Woofie, Derb. Everything Annette made was so delicious, and I didn't even get a picture of her :(

Tyler, Meg & Audrey joined us for Larry's semi-final soccer game Sunday night. They won, so next Sunday are the finals!

football

Alan's football season is over ~ the poor team didn't win a single game, but Alan had a lot of fun & did really well. He made a lot of great tackles and scored quite a few touchdowns.

The coaches named him "Best Defensive Player" and gave him this award. Now he gets a little break, then it's on to basketball!

first november weekend

On Saturday we went to watch Megan's soccer game in Woodinville. She made a goal!

After the game, Neil got to see his friend Elias for a belated Halloween Party. Elias used to be our neighbor, but his family moved to Duvall last summer. Bummer!
