Macies 12th

 Macie turned 12 this year. Her friend Emilie decided since Macie loves gummy bears so much she would get her a life time supply. 

As a family We decided to go to the dinner theater for the 3rd strait year. The kids just love it. They stuffed them selves at the buffet. Wade had like 3 or 4 plates. 

The play was Rocking around the Christmas tree and was consistent with the performances of the past.

Can’t believe Macie is 12. 

Happy Birthday Kiddo. 

Track and Field

 The indoor T&F club had been a positive experience for the kids.

Macie signed up for a meet in Calgary competing in the 150 and the 800 m

Macie got second in the 800 m with a time of just over 3 min. 

Her coach was very happy for her. 

Christmas Tree

 For the 4th year we went to the mountains and cut our Christmas tree. It was super windy in the mountains so it was a quick pick which turned out to be a nice tree. 

Hunting and homemaking

 Wade and Dad went hunting with Hakon and Spencer and were able to get his first Whitetail with his new gun. 

Nice little meat package but lots of work. 

Mom has been making a lot of homemade bread and  butter for the kids who absolutely love it  

November

 The month of  November flew by as kids were in a few activities that kept us busy during the evenings   

Macie and Wade have basketball and track and field. 

Great activities that keep them active and support their development. 

Kansas has been trying out rock climbing and has some potential. Her goal is to get close to the top by the end of track and field. 

Also November had been the month of sickness. It started with Kansas and moved to Macie and then hit Wade. It knocked them out for a week. 

Let’s hope that the last of that  

Halloween 2023

 What a haul. Magrath sure knows how to give out treats. 

Great people, great weather, great decorations, and great treats.

Wade was Babe Ruth

Kanzy was a cute Dalmatian

Macie was a cute but psychotic clown

Cousin Grady was a gangster. 

Garden Harvest

 This year the Garden harvest was decent. Our beets and pumpkins were the Crown Jewels this year. Honorable mention goes to the carrots,  zucchini, potatoes peas and beans. 

We grew about 40 pumpkins and the kids were able to sell most of them and add to their savings accounts. 

10 yr old, What???

 Time continues to show no mercy. As we all get older Wade has joined the double digit age club. 

It’s hard to believe he is 10. We are very proud of Wade and how he has grown.

He currently has a great love for baseball and you can find him wearing baseball attire, talking about baseball, throwing baseballs, watching baseball. 

He has a major talent for running and has achieved some outstanding results for his age category. He can do the 5K in just over 21 minutes. He has brought home a-lot of hardware over the last 2 yrs showcasing his talent.
