Flipped and the crowd went wild.

Kevin on the left, Nick on the right. Dad made one with you guys but didn't race his.  

Grandpa Polzin came over for the weekend. Here we are at the Bowmans for a Pizza dinner.  

The first phase of this room, I painted it to a darker blue that Mom loved. Also pulled out the baseboards and carpet where the new cabinets will go. Goal - Build-ins with fireplace.

One minute we were eating lunch at home, next minute we were packing up to go visit Uncle Todd and Aunt Amanda's family.  Neither were busy at the time, but we wanted to get together. 

Dinner, with Aunt Amanda's "gravy". Or as Uncle Todd and I call it, spaghetti sauce. 

Kevin, you earned the principle award for "Showing great character"
...a few weeks before this you got in trouble at school for punching someone in the stomach. BUT here's why we weren't mad even though you were sent to the principal. A bully had pushed you down on Tuesday and you told him, that was not nice. The next day he pushed your friend down, thats when you got mad and punched the bully, because he hurt your friend. While you did get in trouble, people saw the good out of it. Once the dust settled - according to your 1st grade teacher, you are a good friend to all of your classmates. 

 LED screens make it challenging to take photos.

You have been dropping big hints on what you want for Christmas, but we explain it's not a Santa decision and that we'll look into it in the spring.  

Making your Kiwi Kits. Crafty and STEM challenges. 

You know what that means - It's the start of the Christmas season!
