New Article

 Reed's latest article came out this week.  He was even nice enough to include his brother! 

December Already!

 How is it already December 4th? I'm not sure how that even happened. Kyle had a dive meet on Friday evening and I, of course, have videos.

Enjoy my commentary on this one...I've complained for years that no matter what his dives look like he's going to get a 5.5, so I hardly know how to react when he doesn't.

He was in the lead on 1 meter until the last dive when this happened.  

You can literally see his knees buckle.  

Luckily he didn't fall in the water (that would have been a no score), so since he saved it, they considered it a balk, and he got half his points for the dive...which here it is. 

And wound up finishing 3rd. 

All the Activities

 Kyle had all his activities on Tuesday. 

He had a dive meet during school where he placed 6th.

Then that evening he had a progress show with Willie.

We knew things weren't going well when Reed got a text from someone on the newspaper staff saying that Kyle's pig was running around the barn.  Apparently Willie just doesn't have the showmanship skills Elvis had.

So here's a video of Willie looking cute eating 

(because Kyle certainly didn't think he was cute on Tuesday). 

Jason's Birthday

 Jason had a day to rest between Thanksgiving and his birthday this year.

We went out to dinner with some friends, and pretty much had everything there is to eat. 

Happy Birthday Jason!

Thanksgiving

 I didn't take any pictures Thanksgiving week, except Thanksgiving morning at the turkey trot.

It rained on us last year, and it rained on us again this year so we've come to expect that. 

Reed lined up with 389 other people.

Since this race is a 5K up and back, Jason and I just stood in the same spot and didn't move for 18 minutes.

We kept up with Reed's progress on Life 360

So we were ready for him at the finish.  

Enjoy our commentary. 

It was a good race for him.

And then we went home to eat, where I took no pictures, except of my turkey!

Big Sunday

 It was a big day on Sunday. 

We went to see the Texans who are finally able to win a game after years of not.

And then we picked up this one from the airport. Someone was extra excited to see him!

No School Again

 Kyle was in Corpus Christi this weekend for a meet.  

(He hasn't gone to school on a Friday this whole month)

He placed 4th, got to see Buc-ee,

And did his 2 1/2
