State Champions!

Here are just a few of the pictures that I took this past weekend at the state volleyball tournament. I am so happy for Kim and Gary and for the girls.  They played like there was no tomorrow.  I wish you all could have been there it was SO amazing how hard these girls fought and played.  I am sure they were well coached too!You all have something to be proud of.   Oh, also a big congrats goes out to the
 fans as they earned the title of best sportsmanship in class D1. 
Way to go! I love you oodles!
Congratulations!

Here we go bulldogs...

As my children will LOUDLY verify and validate, I suck with....... having my phone turned on....or with me.....with texting......or it's dead, etc.......so just in case you don't know, we will be playing in Grand Island Thursday at 2:30 at Northwest.  If we win we play Friday at GIHS at 2:00......and then sometime Saturday depending on whether we win or lose.

My girls will not be attending.  Ashley is going to the Penn State game and Tor is going to Washington D.C.......so we see where we rate, ha, ha, ha just kidding, I know they both want to be there and will be there in spirit.  Mark will be there...if you are looking for him on Thursday he will be the one dressed as a lifesize whoppee cushion or bottle of mustard......the fun of being a sixteen year old fan! ha!

I don't expect y'all to come, but did want to let you know about it.  I PROMISE I will send a mass text tomorrow after the game.

One last thing.  My mother-in-law would like to have Thanksgiving on Thanksgiving this year, but I told her I wasn't sure what we were doing.  I guess, even if we can't make it on Thanksgiving the rest of you could all get together without us :( ....... I told her I was going to email or blog (yep, words completely lost on her) and see if maybe a different day would work........any idea what's going on?.........sucks to have to even think of anything other than going to Mom's for turkey and stuffing and potatoes and gravy and pie and family........ugh...........every time I think of it my mind screams the little "monologue" Diane gave this summer when we started taking the tape off around the kitchen border at mom's..........and then I ask God to forgive my screaming potty mind!  Ash is driving back so she will be around.  Anyway, just throwing some things out to be discussed...something to blog and email and text and oh yeah, TALK about......

Okay, need to get packing.......LOVE YOU GUYS........and miss you ALL!

Kim


PS:  Glen Campbell on the CMAs, that is sure to make me cry.......ugh!

remembering NIKE


Today is a sad day in the Bellar household.  We found out on Monday that our beloved Nike had cancer and that the tumor was very aggressive.  So today, November 2, we let Nike be free of illness and pain.  We hope that he was welcomed into heaven by our family and Bandit and Lexie.  It is so hard to let your pet go.  I realize that to many it may seen that I am being over dramatic but Nike was part of our family and it is hard to let him go.  We will miss him tremendously and so will Lucy.  So please enjoy the pictures of our puppy, Nike.

Nike is the one on the left!


Nike and Lucy--always together!  This is true love!

He carried that stuffed animal everywhere even outside to potty!

Together again--this is how they spent much of the night!



We will miss you Nike--you will forever be in our hearts!  Run like the wind---
