swim swim swim

Here in Worland at all three elementary schools swimming is part of the curriculum.  Each grade has around 2 weeks of swimming lessons every year.  They bus takes them to the aquatic center during the school day and they swim swim swim!  Yesterday was the last day for Lucy's swimming and I went to watch her and take some pictures.  She loves the water, which is a first for our family, most of us could do without donning a bathing suit and trying not to drown!

State Marching Band

State Marching Band was this weekend and it started with 5 flag girls sleeping overnight at our house.  They spent the night curling their hair and watching chick flicks.  Andy wanted to join them and before I knew what was happening they were curling his hair!


Saturday morning Andy, Eric, Lucy, and Peter and I drove to Casper to watch them perform.  They did a great job!









Lucy and I took a selfie.  Peter's friend Ellie Durrant is photo bombing us in the background!

Andy's touchdown

Worland vs. Powell.  We lost 7-6, but played the best we have all season!  Andy made the touchdown, a great quarterback run to the goal!



He has 3 games left in the season.  His freshman team is looking a lot better than the first few games.  They are really learning to work together.  We are hoping for a win tomorrow against Lovell!

Go Warriors!

Homecoming Dance

Emma went to the Homecoming dance last night.  There were 3 couples in her group and they ate dinner at our house.  I made dinner and decided to go out on a limb and make something I've never made before!  Seared Black Bean Chicken over Crispy Noodles.  It turned out pretty well, a little more spicy than I would have like, but the kids liked it.




Getting ready

Tanner Allen and Emma, Emrie Jolley and Matthew Kelton, Joshua Kelton and Alyssa




They looked great and had a wonderful time!

Conference Weekend

We have Audrey with us for the weekend!  It's been so much fun to have her here for a few days.  We all went to the freshman and varsity football games last night.  Andy played well in the freshman game, but they lost to Cody!  The varsity game was great!  It's been 12 years since Worland has won a Homecoming football game and we did it last night in the last 2 seconds!  Pretty exciting, especially since Cody is one of the top teams in our region.

Here are some random shots of all of us watching conference.  We were missing Palmer and Lauren and Matt!

Spirit week for Homecoming

It's Homecoming here in Worland tomorrow, so each day of the week the kids had a different theme to dress up as they went to school.  Today was character day.  So Emma and Andy embraced Napoleon and Kip.  They look pretty awesome!






Andy looked even better when he borrowed someone's glasses at school.  The littler kids had crazy hair day and so they sprayed their hair blue.
