October 26, 2008 Addi with Bryce


Chris and Tyson got back today with this buck. Tyson, Teri(Tysons's wife) and Chris were out caping it out and we had Tony, Brandi and Addi here for dinner before they returned home. The kids came for dinner. It's been a busy weekend for them. They came for Bryce's Senior night friday and we had all of about 4 hours alone with them. They are pretty good sports with everyone wanting a piece of their time.

Addi is a doll and has such a cute happy personality. She watched as the guys cut the deer up and would got ewwwww! Brandi and Kati had taken her to the zoo and their she had seen LIVE deer and then next day dead ones. Therapy in the Shaffer household...grin. It's ok Addi... Try being the only girl here...She kept calling the deer a cow and GUESS what Addi is going to be for Halloween..A COW!! FUN!

Bryce's Senior Night

Last Night was Bryce's Senior night. He got a MV fleece blanket with his numbers on and a really cute cake with a Abominable snow man on it. The Mom's got a rose. (Thanks soooo much Bryce)Max was asked to escort Dave Treasure(Max's football coach 30 years ago) out on the feild which was a neat thing for him. Max was also asked to announce the game which he did quite well. He had quite a few people come and tell him how well he did. Personally!! I thought he did an awesome job using the kids names and crediting them for their efforts. He was pretty nervous to begin with but I would bet he gets asked to do it again. He LOVES football and it was a nice way for him to be involved.
Tony,Brandi, and Addi came from Moscow to watch the game and Kati came to support him too.
Marsh Valley Won 10-0 against American Falls. It put the team into a 3 way tie for Champion of the District. Bear Lake is out and they did a coin toss to determine who the Champ was. Pretty weird to me that you can work really hard and have a coin toss determine championship,but Not my choice for being fair. We now have to play Shelley on Thursday
Bryce came home to a decorated room. His friend Corinne had asked him to Morp and came over to decorate after he left for his team dinner. Corinne called when Bryce was still here and we were dancing around trying not to let him hear the conversation. We tried to hint that he might need to clean his room a bit....Brandi made Bryce a My favorite Uncle poster for his football game and Max laid it in front of Bryces bedroom door. I waited for Bryce to come home thinking he would head to the basement to sleep ( So he could be where his games are ,of course)and said, "Hey ya better check your room." He was pretty cute about it. He went up and it really didn't indicate who had asked him. The poster being their threw him. He came down with The cookies and told me he really didn't know who it was and was it Corinne? She placed hearts EVERYWHERE!!! and did the heart attack approach.It's fun to be able to be here for that fun stuff. It's pretty strange to almost be through with Sports in the Family zone. Bryce has been such a good kid with wonderful friends. We have been lucky to have the his friends want to come over. Bryce is a math whiz and tutors a few of his friends.He has been very willing to help all of them.I have always said that Bryce is without guile, an amazing trait to have. Thanks for being such an obedient, kind, guileless son Bryce. YOUR MY HERO! It's been fun to watch you grow.
Tony, Brandi and Addi came for dinner on sunday while Chris brought his Buck in with Tyson.

New Daughter.

Shane and Katie are getting married today and we are very happy to welcome her into our family. Katie has always been one of my favorite people in my kid's life. It will be very nice next summer to have them home and be able to do things together with them.

MV fell to the Panthers last night in a low scoring afair. SR won 6--0. There were a few turnovers and some penalties that hurt us. Bryce played vey good and played the whole game. Next week we have AF at home for Senior night and Tony and Brandi are coming home so we are really looking forward to that. We'll know after next week what the playoff picture looks like.
