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.

What a Crazy Week, Followed by a Busy Weekend!

Work has just been nuts!
I went to the freshman football game on Thursday. We WON!!
We went to the varsity game on Friday night. They called it the game of the year before the game. The 2 high schools even sold tickets at the schools that day. There were approximately 6800 tickets sold! The bleachers were packed! It was a close game and the referee's are jerks! Really!! They don't know the rules or what a penalty is! They all need to go back to referee school and do it soon!

We did win it so we're undefeated, but what a nail biter! I thought I'd have a stroke before it was done. 14-6 and we're on top again! We were ranked 5th in the state, so we'll see this week what the AP poles say.

Then on Saturday, I went with my sister and a friend to Prosser for the Great Prosser Balloon Rally. The balloons were so beautiful going up and the weather was awesome! I took lots of pictures of them. We went to the craft show, farmer's market and several shops. It was a wonderful day!

I'll try to post pictures sometime soon for all to see.

I'm Backkkkkkkkkkk!

Well, here I am again!

High school football has started and even though we don't have a boy playing anymore, we are still going to the games. We have fun there seeing friends and since we still know some of the players, it's good. We're 2-0 so far. The season is starting off like last year. Go Kamiakin!

I'm starting to get some orders for the holidays to make up. Work has gone nuts recently.

There was a fire at Mike's work a couple weeks ago. It was on a Sunday night, so the place was closed and no one there. It did some bad damage though. He's still been working, but has had a couple days off. He left for deer camp (archery) this morning. I hope they get 1 or 2 between the 3 guys. It's still hot here and they deer won't be moving around as much.

I'm working on slippers and a pillow today for orders and watching NASCAR. I'm afraid that Biffle won't make the chase this year, but if he wins today, there's a chance.

College football is on too. GO WSU COUGS & BOISE STATE BRONCOS!! Kellen Moore grew up just a few miles from here.

Oh I almost forgot.......Hope Solo will be on Dancing with the Stars soon. She started her great soccer career here where she grew up!! I'll be rooting for Hope to win it all!!

Holy Cow!!

It's been a long time since I've posted over here!

We lost the big state game, but what an incredible year we all had! It was amazing for the team, coaches and parents.

Andy has graduated and has a job with Les Schwab doing alignments. He really likes it there.

Mike and I are still working and haven't even gone camping all year. It's been a crazy year for us.

We just celebrated Mom's 80th birthday. It was a fun day at my SIL's house.

It's fair week here. We saw Joan Jett on Tuesday night and on Thursday we saw Kenny Rogers! He puts on a great show! Very entertaining and fun. I now have to have a cd for my ipod! His songs just keep going through my head. It was fun to see so many friends out there too.
I'm going to try to post on here more often. We'll see how that goes. :-)

Tomorrow is the Big Game!

We go to Tacoma in the morning so we can watch the Kamiakin Braves beat the Bellevue Wolverines! GO BRAVES!!!!

We're down to less than 24 hours until game time. The pass was pretty clear today for the team's drive over there. We're hoping that tomorrow will be a good drive too.

Those of you that can not attend can watch the game at 4:00pm on FSN (Fox Sports Network) If you're local and have Charter Cable, that's channel 37.

We have a fun 2 days ahead of us!

Kamiakin 45 vs. Capital 18

WE ARE TACOMA BOUND!!!

The Kamiakin Braves are undefeated and on Friday, Dec. 3rd, they play Bellevue for the state 3A football title!!! How great is that!! We plan to be there.

Today's game was amazing! It started with a text message from the coach asking the players to get parents, family and friends to come and shovel snow off the field so the game could stay here today. We went right down there and worked on the field and bleachers. The place looked pretty good and the crowd was packed!!

We beat Capital of Olympia and will now travel to the Tacoma Dome for the championship game!

WE WON!!

We played Kelso here at home and won the game! 1st round of state playoffs done.
Next week we play Mt. Spokane, here at home again. The game is Saturday at 1:00pm. I sure hope the weather holds. The championship game is on Dec. 4th. There are 2 more games to win to get to Tacoma. GO BRAVES!! You can do it!!

It was cool yesterday, but dry and not windy. This morning it's rainy and cool. Mother Nature timed this weekend right!

I'm getting super busy with my Christmas orders now. Lots of slippers, pillows and wine cozies on order for folks. I love this time of year! It really gets my blook moving.

Andy played a few plays during the game after missing 3 weeks of games due to his injury. We went to Dairy Queen after the game and had burgers and ice cream. It was a great time with Mom and Sandi.

Sandi and I went bazaar jumping in the morning and had a fun day! I really love going out and seeing all the creative stuff people come up with and running into friends that we only see at this time of year.

Football Game is on Saturday Afternoon 1PM

Kamiakin vs. Kelso on Saturday, here.

It should be a good game! Maybe Andy will get to suit up. He should have 3 days of practice in after the injury, we'll see what the trainor says on Wednesday.

The archery shoot was fun. We had minimal people, but decent weather for it. Those that decided not to go due to the morning rain missed a nice day.

More later.

It's Saturday

Kamiakin won the preliminary football game last night, 56-7. Next week we play at home against either Kelso or Seattle Prep. We are 10-0 for the season! WooHoo!! Go Braves!

We have an archery shoot tomorrow. Mike and I will be doing registration again. We get to see so many of our friends that way. Hugs all around!

I'm heading out to go to a few bazaars right now. Catch you all later!

What a Week

We went to Wenatchee for the JV football game on Monday. We won in the rain too. It rained so much on us that our coats were wet on the inside!
We stayed at Mike's SIL and BIL's house for the night. Of course, on Tuesday it was a beautiful day to drive home. Nice and sunny!!

I got Andy into the specialist to get her opinion on his head injury from the game 2 weeks ago. His CT scan was great, no problems there. She said he should take the next week to workout and get back in shape before practicing with the team. Hopefully, he won't have any problems and he can start playing again. Kamiakin is in playoff mode now. It's so exciting! They play Southridge on Friday night.

Saturday, I plan to go to a few bazaars and Sunday we have an archery shoot to work at. It will be good to see some old friends.

I hope you all are having a good week!

Kamiakin HS Senior Night & Football Trophies

We walked out on the field with Andy for Senior Night before the football game. He's not suited up for the game, since he was injured 2 weeks ago. Still have to get him to a specialist.
The team won the game, which means they won the title of CBBN 3A League Champions. The large trophy is from KONA radio. They give out that traveling award to the team that they feel is #1. This year we are undefeated, 9-0 and headed to the playoffs for the state title. It was a very fun night for all of us!

WOW! Where does the time go?

I've come up with a few new items in my stores.

Well, it's been a long time since I've posted on here. I have been spending a lot of time on Facebook these days.

We've been so busy with Andy playing football, work and family stuff that I just haven't been posting as much as I used to. Now, the holidays are upon us and I'm busy making up crochet items for my stores.

I have been posting lots of pictures over at Facebook, so stop by there to see what's new.

Facebook Page is Up for Morrow Family Memories

Ok, Cousins!

We now have a Facebook page to start posting on. You have to be a member to post on it.

Have fun!

August 10th

Well, it's been a long couple of weeks here.

The boat races one weekend, the reunion the next and Dad's passing in between and me getting sick too. I go back to work today and maybe I can get my system back on track.

Dad's Celebration of Life was on Friday. It was a very good service. It's amazing the amount of people that made it there. We had over 150 signer's in the guestbook. Lots of extended family and friends to help and support us. My niece did a slideshow of Dad's life. It was great! We laughed, we cried and we made comments remembering him. He touched many lives and the stories will go on for many more years to come.

It was fun to catch up with my cousins that were in town. I arrived at Mom's Friday evening after the family dinner at Mom and Dad's favorite restaurant and some of my cousin's were already there. One 11yo boy was crying and holding his arm. Well, Mom had a bird's nest in the tree that was not in use any longer by the birds. He was climbing in the tree to get it and fell out. My cousin spent several hours in the emergency room with him finding out that he had broken both bones in the arm! What a bummer for him! They left here Saturday morning for their vacation. I heard from them on Sunday and they were just getting into Silverwood Theme Park for the day. He wasn't going to let a broken arm slow him down much, apparently.

Well, I'll have pictures to post later. I feel like I've been gone from work for a month, so much has happened since I was there. I have to drive to Connell tonight to pick up a truck for Andy to drive when he gets his license. Mike gets to drive it until then. I'll let you all know how that goes tonight. : )
