Connor Picture Day, Home Soccer Games + End of Baseball & Football and Launching into Basketball

Weekdays:

  • Monday - I had a dentist apt in the evening and found out I have 1 cavity, 2nd in my whole life UGH! Connor had football practice and Maci had soccer training.
  • Tuesday - Connor had picture day and went Viking jersey route this year.  At night he had football practice and Maci had a super late soccer practice.
  • Wednesday - I hustled home from work as Maci and Connor had practices at the same time.  Connor’s was his final baseball practice for fall and they played parents vs kids. Clint has a hilarious picture of him coming home and poor Eli was playing catcher, I’d like to think Clint never thought of hitting him. . . Hopefully HA I was tied up with Maci at her practice.
Such a great crew!

Poor Little Eli HAHA
  • Thursday - Started my day with Connor at the orthodontist.  We found out that Connor is ready for round 1 of braces - he gets them on November 11th. I then had a good productive day at work but hustled out of work to meet my gal pal Amber for Happy Hour.  While I was doing that, Clint ran Maci to her babysitting job after school then was off to final football practice with Connor. Maci’s babysitting family then ran her to soccer practice at 830p after she was done watching the kids - busy gal!
Friday:
  • Clint went golfing with some pals in the afternoon.
  • Connor and I played some basketball together.
  • I wrapped work for the day and started hanging with the kids.
  • We ordered pizza and then fought over what Halloween movie we were going to watch for family movie night. 
  • Clint got home, we ate and then watched Addams Family (OG version)
  • We then went our own ways and watched what we liked for the evening with Connor watching a movie, Maci hanging in her room and Clint and I catching up on college football and our show “The Morning Show”
Saturday:
  • Up and at ‘em - took a quick walk to start the day with Clint and Connor
  • Then I was off to a massage while Clint ran the kids to their annual flu shot appointment.
  • I hustled home and headed to Connor’s final football game. He had a great game with lots of good tackles, a touch down run that got called back due to a hold by a teammate and then also played QB and threw for a nice completion. Maci and I had to leave early for her game but they ended up winning by 3 points in a super close game vs Tonka.
  • I was off to Maci’s game and then met the adults at the local bar for a margarita ahead of time.
  • Clint and Connor got there just shortly after kickoff. 
  • The girls started slow but ended up in a 2-2 tie vs a team from Nebraska.
  • We then hustled to Slick City for Connor’s end of year football party.
  • Both kids had a great time and then we headed home for some dinner, college football and R&R.
Awesome Year 1 of Tackle Football
Sunday:
  • Up way too early for a weekend! We had to get Maci to her soccer field by 8a.
  • Per usual our girls are just not an early team. We lost 3-2 to an Iowa team that we had NO business losing to so disappointing ride home for all.
  • I put away all the laundry and then we were off to a pre-season basketball team for Connor.
  • Connor and the team CRUSHED team 1 but then went on to get beat in game 2 and the final game. Good learning heading into the season on what we need to work on.
  • We rushed home so Clint could make it to a mandatory basketball coaches meeting at 630p.
  • I got meals planned for the week and groceries ordered and now we are showering and getting all the things ready for the week ahead.
We hope you are enjoying the fall season!
Lots of Love,
C, K, M & C
