Superbowl / Halloweeen

Today was the "Superbowl" for our football league and... drum roll... we lost!!! Darnit!!! These boys seriously played so darn good. The team they played is tough.. haven't lost a game in 3 years... have only allowed 3 touchdowns to score against them in 3 years.... until today. Final Score 21-12. Our boys are a first year team that should be VERY proud of the way they played.

Here are a few kinda action photos of Mick.

Here are the 5 Tigers (baseball team) that played on the football team.

This is Bub aka Matthew. Anyone who follows my blog knows this is one of Mick's best friends! He was phenomenal today!!! He ran the ball 80 yards for our first touchdown and broke through about 5 tackles for the second. What a stud!!! I always thought he was a great baseball player... watch out for this one... he is awesome. The whole entire team did great! The coaches were seriously fabulous!!! These boys all showed alot of class today. Mick LOVED his first season of tackle football!!!

Last but not least here is Jason, Mick's coach, giving Mick his medal. We luv ya Jason... you did amazing with these boys!!!

Now here is the Halloween low-down... I usually dress up... not because I LOVE to but my kids think it's great and hey... it makes me feel young right? Either that or juvenile. Anyway... this year with building and selling I really didn't have much time to think about Halloween. Mick didn't want to dress up at all - he thinks he is too old.... Macee didn't really care... which means we decided the night of our wards trunk-or-treat what she was going to be... and I purchased 5 Power Rangers costumes for yes.... $4 a piece on Disney online after Halloween last year so we were set! And then Murphy's costume... we have handed this down since we had Maddux... Our friends, Joldy and Megan gave it to us years ago... it's my favorite. So this year we did trunk or treat with the ward on Thursday night... Eric's family always goes to town on Halloween and has fun things to do so we decided to intrude and surprise them. We did Angie's blocks trunk or treat... walked around Grandma Vic's block... ate homemade chili.... watched Micky Mouse Halloween, decorated Halloween sugar cookies and had a great time! Thanks for letting us in on the fun! It was Spooktacular!! I know I did a slideshow below but when I have this turned into a journal the slideshows don't get pulled into the book so I have to post a picture of all the kids... except for Mick who was at a football party and hung out with his friends... so sad he is getting too old for his family!!! At least I can say he has great friends and I don't have to worry about him getting into trouble!!!

This is the whole family!!!

Oh ya, I forgot to mention that I decided to be a baseball player with Murphy. Nate gave Mick this jersey a couple years ago. So Nate... I wore #4 proud!!!

Here is my little "can-can" girl. She even did the "can-can" for all the teachers at the school! She is beautiful. When deciding what she wanted to be she didn't care as long as she could wear makeup. This was a perfect fit!

Here is Murphy the baseball player. He was so cute and so good. Just hung out in the stroller most of the time we did the trick-or-treating!

Last but not least... my Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. We had green also but it got wore the night before and got a little dirty! They LOVED their costumes and they were so warm!!!

Hope everyone had as much fun as the Madsens.... I know one thing for sure... it will take us until next year to eat all the candy we collected.!!!
