Abe's troop held a court of honor on Wednesday. Abe received 9 merit badges and advanced to Star rank. This is a photo of his scoutmaster, Bob, reading the names of his merit badges.
Abe had his last cross-country meet on Thursday. He placed 5th in his division with a personal record time of 12:31.
Brandan's clinic director, Stan, is moving on to bigger things so the clinic honored him with lunch on Friday. Brandan is the medical director of the clinic and manages the doctors and nurse practitioners. Stan manages everyone else. They'll still work together in Stan's new job, but the clinic will miss Stan's warm style of management. The clinic also celebrated Halloween on Friday, which is why Brandan is wearing a bow tie.
The fall soccer season ended Saturday. In an almost Hollywood finish, Brandan and Abe's team won both of their games on Saturday-- a great boost after a challenging season. Gib's team was undefeated. This is a photo of Brandan's team. To save time and money, Brandan asked Sofi to take the team photo and individual shots and then emailed the photos to the parents.
Brandan finished his ocean painting. Here are the three paintings held by the artists who painted them.
Our week ended with Halloween. Gibson dressed as a spy. He put together his own costume.
Helen went as Peter Pan. She cut up a green T-shirt for her costume. Becky made the leggings and hat.
Abe was a sock monkey.
Sofi dressed up as Zam Wessell. Who? The shape shifting assassin from the Star Wars movie "Attack of the Clones."
Sofi hosted a Halloween party at our house. Her friends came dressed (mostly) as Star Wars characters. Back row: Maccoy, Joey (ewok), Harrison, AJ, Ireland (C3PO), Patrick (Qui-Gon). Front row: Carson (Darth Nihilus), Emma (Princess Leia) and Sofi (Zam Wessell). These kids are a bunch of foodies (mostly) so they had fondue for dinner, went trick-or-treating and watched a very goofy movie called "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken."
Our neighbors gave Abe chow mein noodles when he went trick-or-treating to their house. Easily the funniest treat of the night.

Chow mein? I wonder if they ran out of candy. I am glad I am not the only one that doesn't want to pay for team photos. Aaron really likes Sofi's painting of the coast. I really like Abe's sock monkey costume.
