4th Grade Pics
- Monday - My boss was back from India/Philippines so lots of catching up and getting in the swing of things. Only sports in the evening was Maci development training with the forwards and Clint was kind enough to run her given it was 745-845p.
- Tuesday - Last day of school for the kids thanks to fall break. Busy evening for me as I ran from Connor’s conference at school (such a smart, kind boy that could put in a titch more effort) to the house to hop on Maci’s virtual conference with her advisor (she is organized, super kind, responsible and cares about doing well). While I was doing this, Connor and Clint had Connor’s team’s first basketball practice for the season. Maci was supposed to then have practice BUT it was COLD and RAINY so our coach changed it to a virtual film study from 830-930p
- Wednesday - Kids had no school so easy/lazy day for them. Rosie had a grooming and I had a jam packed day of meetings since I was going to be out the rest of the week. At night, Connor had Baseball Training at Brower with Clint. I took Maci to her practice and killed the time by grabbing a solo dinner at the Mexican restaurant nearby. I got food, cleaned email and then picked her back up. I finished some laundry and then crashed for the night.
- Thursday - Clint and I were “off” but we were just around the house so we both did a little work here and there. I helped to solve some employee relations questions and tuned into a cost management call while also participating in my quarterly board call for equality. I was able to get the house cleaned up and finished our laundry. I then got ready to tune into the Bengals game with minimal hope. Clint ran Maci to her practice so I could fully watch. Q1 was a little rough BUT then the Bengals found a rhythm and never looked back! Joe Flacco had a great game, our stars willed their way on offense and Defense did enough to get it done! I was soooo happy at the end of that game!
Friday:
- Up and packing around 9a
- We got on the road around 1030a for Kansas City - we had to cancel our annual Grandview resort plans for fall break b/c Maci’s team had 2 divisional games against Sporting KC.
- The drive wasn’t bad and we rolled into KC around 530p.
- We went to Joe’s for some yummy BBQ for dinner and then hung with many of the families to watch the University of MN big win against Nebraska that evening.
Joe’s BBQ
Saturday:
- We got to sleep in which was nice. The team did breakfast at 930a and then had a team walk/stretch.
- While they were off doing that, Rachel and I set up a bead activity so the girls could make their bigs for the team a year older than us key chains.
- Once finished, we had some down time in the room and then ate lunch - Subway for the kids and pulled pork sandwiches for the adults.
- We had a bit more down time and then we had to get ready for our 230p game.
- The girls played great and won 5-1 - Miss M had an assist to Isabel by using her body to flick it forward.
- We headed back to the hotel, Connor and JD fit in some swimming and then we were off to Chicken and Pickle for team dinner/bonding.
- We had a nice time and then headed back to the hotel for a quick parent night cap drink and the girls got in bed by their 10p curfew.
Beading Fun!

Sunday:
- Up and at ‘em and out of the hotel by 840a.
- Game 2 was at 10a and once again a great outcome, this time 4-1 and another great assist by Maci. She also had a great rip on goal that the keeper barely got some finger tips on to push it out for a corner kick.
- We all smiled/celebrated the win and then loaded up the cars for the long 6 hour 30 min drive home.
- We have 2:30 left on our drive and should get home around 7p. Just in time to do some laundry, unpack, get the car washed and order groceries before showering and crashing in bed.
While it was a busier MEA fall break weekend than usual, we wouldn’t rather be anywhere else than watching one of our 2 all stars do what they love! Great job TFE!
Lots of Love,
C, K, M & C
