November

The first weekend in November was the Marion County 4-H Achievement Banquet.  Cambry put quite a bit of work into her record books this year and it paid off with county awards in visual arts and clothing!  She also received her clover pin (3 year member).  The Goessel Goal Getters were represented very well at the banquet - one of the largest (or the largest) clubs in the county!  Way to go, Goessel and Cambry! Junior High Fall Concert: 6th-8th Grade Band 7th-8th Grade Choir We actually got this guy into a tie!! (thanks to the grandmas) On to basketball:  So far, the A Team boys are 1-1.  Their first game didn't go so well, but they had an excellent game this past Monday against Rural Vista.  We had never seen Caiden be so aggressive or score so many points.  It was fun to be on the winning end of a "blow-out" for a change!  We think he gained a lot of confidence during that game, which will hopefully carry through the rest of the season.

Halloween

Delaney wanted to be a cowgirl for Halloween, which meant she got into a pair of actual, boot-cut jeans for the first time . . . EVER!  At school, she wore a cute jean skirt, but it was pretty cold on Halloween night, so she just wore the jeans.  Cambry chose to dress up like her dad - a farmer.  Since it was so cold, she wore her coat underneath the flannel shirt.  Her costume came about because we hadn't really thought about a costume for her.  Yay for Dad's closet!

Playing Catch-Up

I guess I haven't blogged in over 3 months - it's time to play catch-up: August/Sept.:  We were busy on Thursday nights with both football and volleyball this year.  Most nights, Cambry played at the same time as Caiden, so we had to hop around a bit!  Caiden's team did well - they finished 4-3.  He got to play a little bit of everything this year:  quarterback, guard, some other positions I don't know the names of, and I even saw him kickoff a couple of times.  Cambry's team did well too!  They even finished 2nd at the Hesston C team tournament (to Goessel's B Team)!  She did really enjoy it and plans on playing again next year.  These fb pics are from the scrimmage at the beginning of the year: playing qb hand-off to Caleb?
