What a busy weekend!
Thanks to everyone who came and celebrated Joe's birthday. He was really surprised and very happy to see you all. Now if only he could get all that work done at the farm he was planning to do yesterday. he he. I will upload some photos as soon as I get them off my camera.
Sports update: Claire's team won their soccer match on Saturday 6 to 0. Joe said the the orange team worked really well together and Claire scored 2 goals! Way to go big girl. Thanks to Aunt Annie who filled in as "Soccer Mom" and made sure the snacks were delivered and the player was on time.
Brendan's team lost to Lakeview 0 to 12. It was hard to watch Brendan fumble as the quarterback. But I was glad to see how well he handled what could have been too much for him. The team never gave up, pouted or yelled at each other. They had great spirit and tried until the final seconds. (Maybe because with no working scoreboard, they didn't know what the clock was.) Afterwards the congratulated the other team's players as we were walking off the field. The parent's of Lakeview were very impressed and thanked us. The team was a class act. On Brendan's last possession he carried the ball for the longest drive of his offense, about 22 yards. I'm glad he ended on a high note.
Ok everyone, have a great week. Thanks for checking in.

OMG to the max. Joe's birthday! Color me ashamed for forgetting about it. Belated birthday wishes to your old man.
Sounds like a nice family weekend all around.
Happy Birthday, Joe! Tell him not to worry about the farm. He can work any day, it's not every day he gets a surprise party!
Joe is old. He won't be able to do the work on the farm. Because he's old. Super old. I don't even know anybody that old in real life.
Lisa all I can say about last weekend is WOW!
@ Carol- You were missed.
@ Erin - The beer helped ease his farm work guilt.
@ Abby- He's lucky he has a young trophy wife to keep him spry.
@ Melissa - You are not kidding! It took some time to recover.
