Ellyn and George Get Married!

October 11 was a beautiful day for a birthday wedding. Ellyn (who's birthday is 10/11) married George. It was a beautiful wedding at Nazareth hall. Almost all the girls from high school were able to make it to the wedding, including Gwen and Meredith. 

The Whole Gang

From the last cross country practice - all the kids on the team. 

The CC Banquet

To celebrate the end of the cross country season, the team had a banquet. The kids all got individual trophies, pizza and lots of dessert. This is the pee-wee boys (or at least a majority of them). If Ben does CC next year, he will bump up to Minors and a 3/4 mile run. 

The Final Cross Country Meet 2015

The last cross country meet was a beautiful day at Maumee Bay State Park. Ben had a great final race. He came in 21st place, but had his best time of 3:29. It was a great end to the season!

Ta Da!

A pretty new garage door! The spring on our's snapped three weeks ago and it was time for a new one. It was a very exciting day!

The Trees!

I finally found 'The Trees' at Oak Openings. There is a cluster of pine trees that have great light that I had seen in some other photos and wanted to find them for myself. It was a perfect day for a walk, so we went in search of my trees. We didn't go with the intention of taking any nice pictures, just to go for a walk. 

This is where Nick got mad and wanted to go back to the car. Then he got even more mad because I started laughing at him. 

A Nick Date at Imagination Station

Nick got to spend alone time with Adam and I at Imagination Station while Ben was at a birthday party there. It was nice and quiet since it was early in the day. He got to play all sorts of stuff and run the show. 

Top 15!

It was a cold, windy, rainy, nasty day. So of course that was the day Ben had his best race. He ran hard in the rain and came in 15th place! His goal this season was to get in the top 15 because he got a second ribbon AND his name on the CYO standings page. He was so excited, in his shy, modest way, about getting his second ribbon. 

Now Showing: Jurassic World

Now showing at the Wolny Cinema - Jurassic World. The boys love that movie. (And, did you know, you can buy and watch the digital copy of movies up to 3 weeks before the blu-ray is released??? Now you do.)
