The One With The Ball

October 6 - 9, 2017
"The One With The Ball."  That's pretty funny.  Since it is fall.  and this family plays a lot of ball.  In the Fall.  Emma has basketball.  Lara works football.  Jake plays basketball.  Finn is a ball of energy.  But this weekend "Ball" took on another meaning. AS in, a dance.  A gala.  An event.  And there was much ado.  Perhaps about nothing.  But it was fun, nonetheless.

Friday night lights.  We played Lawton. In Lawton.  The left school at 1:30pm.  And got back at 1:05 am Saturday morning.  We lost the ball game, and got home in a downpour.  Not the best experience, but lots of memories

Saturday, Jake had basketball games in Edmond while Lara slept in.  When we got back to Stillwater mid-afternoon, it was time to get ready for the Fall Ball.  Stillwater High School Semi Formal was that night at the Wes Watkins Center on the OSU campus, and Lara had a date.  He was picking her up for dinner, then they were off to the ball!

Sunday, Mom had a birthday.  And Dad and the kids threw a little party.  It was a BALL! We didn't get much time (and no pictures) with Emma this weekend, but she was on this side of the county helping nana and grandpa put boxes in their attic, so I did get a birthday hug from her!

Not a bad way to spend a fall weekend with all kinds of balls!
