Oh I'm gonna miss my sweet, sweet glory of being a playoff Momma, it has come to an end...
WE LOST!!!
Can you believe it?? I think everyone's still in shock!!
No, no Kleenex's , thanks, I'm good....
I'm OK, really....
No...I'm not gonna start cryin & whining around, pouting & reliving every moment of the game...
No I'm not gonna do that.....again
I can keep myself together....
Well I did, until the boys started to get a little upset, but I cried hysterically and went kicking and screaming down the field held it together okay, for their sakes.
Those little boys played their hearts out, we are sooo very proud of all of them!!!
We lost 14-18, how stinkin bad is that??
That team has NEVER been scored on all year and we scored on them, not once but 2 times!!
We were ahead 14-12 at the half, but we had some crappy refs making some unheard of calls, a few boys who were getting the raw end of the deal, plus a fumble, and a kick off return that killed us!!!
There were some very upset boys!
But we are still in the running for being a Top 5 team. We have 2 games left and can still pull this off!!! Our team has never been in the top 5, in any league, so we are unbelievably proud and pretty happy too.
We play Saturday and only have 2 practices this week. Basketball has started and some parents are going in 15 different directions...luckily we are not doing basketball this year...
Nathan really liked it, but we all need a break from sports for a little while.
Baseball will be here before you know it!!!
(sigh)
Oh well my dreams of Pee-Wee Super Bowl Momma Glory are over......
I know their is always next year.....Blah, Blah, Blah....
Dangit I wanted it now!!!
I guess I'll just settle for 5th place and keep a big smile on my face...especially when (not if) the team that knocked us out of the playoffs,they get their butts beat by another team this weekend..haha!!!
No,
No,
I'm not bitter...What gave you that idea???

Ok so tomorrow is the big, (actually it's HUGE) Pee-Wee football playoff game!!!
We are in round 2, and we are up against a pretty darn good team. dangit!
But I got the boys all set!!!
On Thursday (pep rally night) they got the best treat bags, best candy, and the coolest (fake) tattoos!!!
Why fake tattoos???
To totally physic out the other team, of course......
Cause if you don't know it by now friends, I will tell you......
Football is a head game!!!
Believe it or not, it totally is!!!
The boys, coaches, refs, etc all talk some smack to make you loose your mojo....
I know because I'm on the field with them, why you ask???
Well because I have the sweetest camera, (no really cause I'm supposed to helping with the Cheerleaders, but whatever)
So being right there with the boys, I hear all the smack talk and trust me they all do it!!!
It's actually kinda funny!!
I hear 3rd and 4th grades talkin' trash...
It makes me laugh!!!
I hear "you can't play football punk, your team can't beat us, your Coach is drunk"...blah blah blah
It's a total head game so I got body tattoos for all the boys to wear on their arms, face, neck, hands, etc... to throw off the other teams concentration when they are on the line...
Pretty freakin smart huh???
I mean, come on they are only 9 and 10 year olds!!!
Sooo we are headed for another Saturday of playoffs...
I'm a mess, I've bit off all my nails (but typing is like sooo much faster) I can't decided which Owl spirit shirt to wear, I'm freaking cause I forgot to charge my camera (until now) I'm running around making sure everyone's uniform is clean and ready to go...I feel like I'm forgetting something...
I'm sure I'll remember about 11:30 when we are there!!!
But there is a plus.....
Mark's on his way home...Thank Goodness!!!
I really, really want this for the boys, and I think if the bring it on and play like they know how to, they got this in the bag!!!
Sooooo wish us luck and pray really hard that they do their very best and no one gets hurt!!! Especially number 21, cause his Momma cannot take another bad thing this week!!!
Oh and to win the game...but mostly no on gets hurt....(did that sound convincing enough???)
American Conference Championship is the next step...Then the biggest of them all!!!
THE PEE-WEE SUPER BOWL, BABY!!!!
But let's just make it through tomorrow....

WE WON BABY!!!!
38-6...GO OWLS!!!
It was a great game and our boys played sooo good!!!
They will need to "bring it" next week as we play the #1 team in our conference, (we are #2) so we will have to get it together, fast!
Here are some pics of our boys in red hot action, these are some of my favs...
Oh and because this is MY blog and just cause I can...I have some pics of my son, he had an amazing game and played his little heart out!!!
Nate caused a fumble and recovered it for our team...Then he sacked the quarterback....Blitz 'n Baby!!! His nickname is not Blitz Boy for nothing...hee hee
Here's Nate and Polk causing another quarterback sack!!! Yep he went down, hard!!
Here's Mr.Touchdown (aka Jordan) with one of his sweet entrances into the end-zone!!
Here's one I can even believe I got, again Polk & Nate...Polk hits this guy and he looses the ball...see it in between their legs?? Then Nate grabs it, we got the ball back...Sweetness!!!
So we ended on a very happy note....Our Coach, KP always has a kind word and a prayer together with BOTH teams and their coaches, parents, cheerleaders, etc...after every game.
I just had to have a sweet picture of this...
Awwwwwww
Oh hang on, I'm a little verklempt,......

I miss you HALLOWEEN!!!!
I totally heart you...You have got to be the best holiday ever...
I mean I really have a sickness, I start planning my kids costumes in like May...
Then it takes me 2-3 days to put out all my decorations...
I have waaaay more Halloween decorations than the average "normal" Momma.

I love the spooky, scary feel of the night...
I mean really, when else can you be a total freak and no one cares???
Not that I am that total freak...well not THIS year!
I love to dress up with the kiddos and go treat or treating!!!
It's a blast!!!
But of course with me being a caught up in my own "Halloween moment" I didn't get pictures of everything or everyone I wanted..dangit!! I hate that...Oh well, there's always next year!
Here's my little Alice in Wonderland...really only her 2nd year to "get" the whole treat o'treating thing down...
My sweet Alice...
Here's Katie as a "little girl" or as I like to call it...Saturday morning??
The girls, Janice, and I went treat or treating, all the little guys went together with another dad to get goodies...Let's see we had the scream guy, fireman, vampire, and my stud, a gangster...Well you'll just have to imagine the boys. They left in such a hurry, I did not get one stinkin picture of them..
But Notorious Nate did look a little like this...
or maybe not???
Where's my hubby you ask...Marky Mark and sweet Janice's hubby, big K...Well they stayed on the front lawn
Wish I had a really good pic of them, I can still see them too....Sitting in the front lawn in their chairs, handing out massive amounts of candy to toddlers who can't even chew yet!!! Awww, what a sweet pic...
Then...
We get back from T o'T with the girls and half the candy is GONE!!! I'm sorry but there is no need to give 5 pieces of candy to one child...Pleeeese.
So I took over the candy duties, so of course I freak out over the candy and I get a new title.
My new official title is Candy Nazi, not to be confused with the prior title of Prize Nazi...(hey it was a long day at the baseball festival and prizes needed to last!!! )
So we ordered pizza and gave out (less) candy...made fun of a few very WT folks around these parts and laughed till it hurt, then had candy till our stomachs hurt...
Thanks to our sweet friends for letting us spend All Hallows Eve with you, it was sooo much fun!!!
After many more laughs and more candy we headed home, bloated and feeling 10 pounds heavier....
They kids were exhausted and went to bed.
The next morning we all had candy hang over, bad!!
Plus we had a big football game at 9:30, which means we HAVE to be at the field at 8:30...and noooo body wanted to get out of bed, but me of course. So what does this Momma do??? Blast AC/DC's Hells Bells all through the house at 7:30 a.m.
Hey, it worked!!!
So my most fav holiday of the year is over (sniff, sniff)
But, our football team made the playoffs so I have something to look forward too...
Thank goodness, man there for a minute I thought all hope was lost...Whew, close one!
So now everyone is all hyped up about the next couple of holidays...yea they are good too but,
they will never be Halloween. (sigh)
Oh well, time to hit the clearance racks and get me some more cool Halloween crap that I probably don't need but cannot live without!!!
Oh and don't forget....
Our 1st playoff football game is Saturday.....Woo-Whoo...Wish us luck!!!
We are Pee-Wee super bowl bound!!!
I know I really need help
Anyone?
Anyone?
Brooklyn and her pre-school class went to the pumpkin patch today (Thursday). They had some activities planned and each child got to take home a little pumpkin.
It was so cute to watch her interact with her friends and teachers. She had a blast...They got to pick their own special pumpkin....Don't ya just LOVE that pose??
Then they decorated sugar cookies and had punch...Yummy!!
Couldn't resist this one of my cookie eating girl!!
Then Brookie made an adorable picture frame to put that sweet photo in!!!
Then it was story time, we all listened to a story about, you guessed it, pumpkins...
Afterwards we got to pick out OUR favorite pumpkin to take home for Halloween... Brookie had some help looking for just the right one....
Me, I already picked the best "punk-in" in the whole patch!!!
It's just to bad that she's rotten!! hahaha!!
