Ravens Fan

Kenzie and recently become a huge Ravens fan. She used some of her babysitting money to buy socks, a jersey, and purple pajama pants.

Since October, Jordan has been playing the postlude music on the second Sunday since the organist teaches Relief Society those weeks. I thought he'd just play the piano, unless the organist showed him how to play the organ, but he started with the organ. He already had some experience playing it before, which I'd forgotten.

He also played a musical number in November. He did a fantastic job!

Finance Park

Coleman went to Finance Park. When the kids were younger they went to BizTown at the same place. BizTown is a lot more fun, but the kids all still seemed to have fun at Finance Park.

First they took a career survey.

There were words of wisdom on all the walls.

They learned about budgeting and the different expenses they'll have as adults. They were given tablets and personas. Coleman was a paralegal with a wife and two kids. Then they had to make a budget based on the income they were given. After making a budget, they had to choose items to purchase and see if they budgeted the correct amount for each category.

T-rex, Coelman, Ben. We signed up because T-rex's mom said he'd be there and would love for Coleman to go too. But Coleman was really excited Ben was there too! Graham was also there, but was in a different group so they didn't see each other as much.

Haircuts

Jordan and Doug got haircuts!

Mackenzie's New Friend

Mackenzie saw this at Winco on sale after Halloween and convinced me to buy it. For the next few days she set kept blowing it up in the house.

Besties!

WWU Tennis Club

Jackson his playing tennis on Western's competitive tennis club. He's having a lot of fun and has been playing lots of tennis. They don't have an indoor court to use until the winter quarter (which starts in January) so when the weather is bad they can't play as much. They had a tournament in Oregon. He said he lost all his matches (I think the whole team did), and that the other teams there were really good. He played singles, doubles, and mixed doubles.
