What We've Been Up To

Happy Tuesday friends!  It's been quite the week around here and I wanted to jump on quick to update with all the happenings.  

Last Monday night my sweet Grandpa Beepa passed away.  He was 90 years old and although we are so sad for us, we are overjoyed for him.  My Grandma Omi passed away 7 years ago, and he has missed her so much.  I love thinking about how happy those two are right now!
He was a wonderful grandpa, lots of memories fishing with him.  He was an avid hunter/fisherman, so to see him in a wheelchair was tough.  His funeral was wonderful, and really captured who he was.
We will miss him!


Tuesday, of course, was Halloween.  Rachel had another volleyball playoff game and Emma went with some friends to a haunted house, so it was just the mouse this year.  Kind of sad to not have all my girls here, but that's life.

Emma did her own makeup here, didn't she do awesome??!!


We ended up going to my sister and brother in laws for supper and Alayna and Will handed out candy for awhile, then the dads took them out to trick or treat for a bit while the moms enjoyed wine!


Thursday Rachel's team had another playoff game, this was to win subsections.  They played amazing and we won it!


She was so excited!  Unfortunately the next game they played to go to state was on Saturday, and she had to miss because we had Grandpa's funeral.  The did not win that game, sadly, so their season is done.  They had an amazing season though and we are so proud of them!


Friday night was full of packing for the weekend and making sure everyone had proper clothes, since it SNOWED!!  The temp didn't get much above 35 degrees.  Ouch.  I have to say though, that I still love snow.  It's so beautiful and peaceful.  Brad went out deer hunting Saturday morning for a few hours before we had to leave.  No luck though.


So this is the first week of NO SPORTS!  Of course last night we had a drivers ed information class for Emma (gulp), so spent the evening at school anyway, haha!

Have a great week!

I'm so sorry about your grandpa, but I'm glad he's with your grandma now! Hope you guys are doing well- I can't believe you have snow already! It was 90 degrees here this week!
