PUPPIES!!

WOOHOO!!

Kamiakin played Kennewick on Saturday in the state playoffs. It just so happens, that both schools are in Kennewick, Washington. Pretty cool, huh?
Kamiakin won 22-14 and we are now in the final 4 for the 3A division!!

Bellevue will travel here on Saturday to play in the snow(maybe) and cold. We had snow coming down last Saturday. Bellevue is from the Seattle area and the same team we played in the state championship last year. That is the only game we've lost in 2 seasons! We'll be ready for them this time.

I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving holiday!

What a Busy & Fun Weekend!

Friday was a day off of work. Tyke and I went grocery shopping. OUCH!! Too much to buy to fill the cupboards.
Saturday was a bazaar jumping morning with my sister. We had fun and then took my neice Ashley to get her new phone activated. The afternoon was a great football game with Kamiakin playing Seattle Prep in round 1 of the State 3A Playoffs. They had a good lead of 14-0 in the 2nd quarter but we came back and beat them 28-14!! It was an exciting game to say the least. Our #1 QB was out this week with a broken finger. He will play this next weekend though. The #2 guy did a great job. He's got some talent.
Next Saturday we play our across town rival Kennewick HS. They have only lost 1 game this season and it was to us. We only have 2 more playoff games and then the championship on Dec. 2nd in Tacoma!

On Suday, I had lunch with 3 fun classmates! It was a hoot! We did manage to eat lunch during our over 3 hour meetup. There is just so much to talk about. It was a great afternoon and much needed!

Have a great week my friends!

It's a Sad Time Here

We lost my brother-in-law, Skip, on Sunday. We went over to Seattle on Friday morning. He'd been there for about 10 days after falling and breaking his back. This accident brought on some other major problems and we lost him. We still feel kind of numb.

It's been a bad week Folks

We started the week off with hearing that friends of mine were in a propane fire at their cabin. 3 of them have 2nd degree burns and they were all taken to a Seattle hospital. As of today (Sunday) 2 of them have been released and 1 will remain there for 3-4 weeks. This family and I have been friends almost forever. The mom and I were best friends in high school. She is the one that has to stay there for awhile.

Then, Tuesday night, we got a call from Mike's family. His older brother fell from his semi-truck and broke his back. He was flown to the same hospital in Seattle that my other friends are at. He had surgery on Wednesday. He went through it pretty well. It was a long one though. Now, he has something going on with his heart. They can't seem to get his blood pressure to stay normal. They are talking about surgery on him for that now, but not sure he would make it through it. They are not sure he will make it without it either. They think he has pnuemonia also which really complicates things. They are still not sure if he will be able to walk again.

Please keep him in your thoughts. He's in ICU and not doing very well at all. We will probably be going over there on the weekend, unless we have to go sooner. Mike and Tyke went over this weekend and he's in bad shape.
