Thanksgiving out

thanksgiving (1 of 14), originally uploaded by ebeegrn.

So this thanksgiving mom and I were talking about what we should to for dinner. I figured we would all squish into our place and have a good time. Hang out and watch some football. She suggested we go out. Then thinking no one would want to eat out I said well lets put it to a vote and see what everyone wants to do. I lost 1-17 for eating out. What? So we ate at the clearwater casino. I will admit that we don't usually have crab legs for dinner. Some of the sides were not as good as we usually have. No loaded mash potatoes or Richard's mom's cornbread stuffing. In protest I'm thinking of hosting my own Thanksgiving dinner at our place next week. Was a good time though. In the evening we went and watched area 51 with Tab, Elise, Daniel, Micheal, my family and Dad. Then some of them went from the movie to wait in line for Black friday deals.

I can't figure out why I don't have a picture of it but while we were getting ready Mason had a yogurt and decided to suction it to his face.  He immediately developed a large bruise all around his lips.  He looked ridiculous.  I was worried he would be embarrassed but he actually seemed quite proud of it.  Said it looked like he needed to shave.

playing with textures in photoshop. this was using some textures I borrowed from flickr user- www.flickr.com/photos/moosebite/
have to work on it a little more. I think the fact that the rock all ready had so much good texture made it not work as well? samtextures, originally uploaded by ebeegrn.

This is at Mason's football banquet. D string. They made it to the finals this year. Guy with brown shirt is head coach Cy. Ivy and Colleen on right were the team moms. Cy took the time to individually talk about each of the boys and give them there trophy. Took awhile but you could tell he cared about the boys. Click here for a few more pictures. I only took a few because I was chasing Mason around.

Mason isn't in this one. But this is part of the Warren ave D string. They made it to the finals. Got beat but went down fighting. Look at the pictures. End of season dinner is Friday. Now Mason is starting wrestling to stay in shape and maybe to be less afraid of tackling somebody. Asher is starting basketball. Click here for more football pics.

Our church had Veterans Day fun

Cooper was a proud supporter of the Army. Had to clarify with Asher that I was Navy and not Marines. Clear difference there.

On to the finals. They won 31-0. Same score as the last game. Hopefully the score of the next game. Was cold but didn't rain too hard. Sounds like it will be worse on Saturday for the last game. Getting ready for basketball next. click here for a few more pics.  Picture quality is a little lacking but wasn't in a mood to drag big camera along and wasn't quite enough light.

Ivy's new blog

For those that don't know Ivy has been working out at the Bremerton crossift gym. They like you to have a indivudual blog to record your workouts and they link them together with the other people at the gym.  Today I helped her make her blog.  I even came up with the name.  Ivy's gun show you can follow her workouts their.  Though I don't know what half the stuff means.  heres some links that have videos of the types of workouts she does.  A little crazy. click here and scroll down for videos. video below is a basic description of what crossfit it.

The D-string knights!

Below is a copy from the blog forecasting kitsap.  I believe it's connected with the kitsap sun?  He did a forecast before the first playoff game last week.  Colleen one of the mothers made this sign as a thank you.  Sounds like the game this wednesday could be a cold and rainy one.  Below is a copy from the forecast kitsap blog.
