The lady bears volleyball team is headed to STATE! So, we get Friday off of school! Well, not really because we are contracted to work. So, we had the choice of a work day or going to see the girls play. Last year, they went all the way to Hays (so I didn't go), but this year they are in Emporia. So, I get to go and take a small group of students to see the girls play on Friday! Can't wait! The juniors and seniors on this team are girls that I helped coach back when they were 7th and 8th graders!! They are so fun to watch!

Basement Complete!!!!!!
We are SOOOO glad our basement is done. We just doubled the size of our house!! Yahoo!
Here is part of Buddy's new KU room. We still have to get his bed and dresser from grandma and grandpa's, but it is almost ready!
The new living room, downstairs. Anybody have an old couch they don't want? Thanks to Galen for giving us the nice tv!
The spare bedroom. My college apartment stuff came in handy for decorating this room! We call this "grandpa's room" because he spends the night sometimes when he goes hunting with Daddy. He finally has an actual room to sleep in, not just a bed in the unfinished basement!
Here is the downstairs bathroom. I decorated it with beach and fish stuff for fun!
Here is the hallway/computer area/eating area. Thanks to Aunt Mary for the table and chairs. Thanks to Uncle Murph for fixing the table and chairs up! The bar stools you see are my garage sale specials! I got them for $20 each, and they are perfect!
Here is the basement bar or the "other kitchen", as Buddy calls it.

Junior Achievement Bowling
Uncle Matt always makes it interesting. He found a vending machine with hillbilly teeth, so we had hillbilly bowling!
Here's Buddy after missing all the pins!
Not only did we have hillbilly bowling, we had granny bowling!
Here is Matt's sophisticated bowling approach!

Late Night and Maple Leaf
We had a busy weekend. We went to Late Night in the Phog and the Maple Leaf Festival. We had a great time!
This truck had some massive tires! I have never seen a machine quite this big up close. I bet those tires were taller than me!
The Jayhawks made an appearance at the Maple Leaf Festival. So, we saw them Friday night and Saturday morning!
Here is Buddy at Late Night on Friday. He did quite well considering we stayed until 10pm! I will post some pictures soon of our bowling outing on Saturday night! We bowled for Junior Achievement for Daddy's work. Even Uncle Matt came to bowl!

Fun with Family
My uncle Jeff and aunt Jacque were in town a few weeks ago, so we had a family get together. It is always fun to play with Tooje's kids!!
If you know anything about Mr. OJ, this picture is hilarious. The other kids are happy... and OJ? Not so much, but we LOOOOVE him just the same!! :-) 
See, he really is happy at times! Gotta love that grin!
And Ms. EJ... WOW, look at that hair. Buddy just loves holding her and playing with her!
**Thanks to Tooje for letting me take pics of her kids and put them on my blog without permission!
