Cousin Brad

Now with your latest installment of the family

fun show. Micah had a great game last Friday - 35 to 6!

And what's family fun without boisterous cousins?

Brad would continually shout "That's my cousin!!"

whenever Micah had a good play.

During the game Brad and I discussed Christmas plans

and our desire to get the whole family together for a

good ol' family bash. (And a baby shower for Lianne :))

Brad was on board and proceeded to tell me what

would be required on this party's menu. Interested?

Okay here ya go:

Pizza Ranch

White angel food cake

Dr. Pepper

Orange slices

Circus peanuts

No bake cookies (must be thin and slightly bent)

Mashed potatoes

Buns

Gravy

Corn

Roast

Skittles

Laffy Taffy

Chocolate Stars

Maple Nut Goodies

Twizzlers

Peanut butter cookies with chocolate kisses

Rice krispie bars

Grandma Lassen's pies

Here are some videos of Micah's touchdown passes

and how Mom acts during every play of Micah's

games. She's a bit of a nervous nelly :)

Cute :) Rhonda and Sherwin were reminiscing

about their first date and watching Saturday

Night Live and how Sherwin and Dad thought

SNL was hilarious and Rhonda thought it was

the dumbest show she's ever seen :)

Ty and his killer drum set

We were all sitting around eating yummy "lunch"

and waiting for Micah to come home. And here he is!

Brad commented that Micah was a "real live ken doll"

While discussing the benefits of fresh fruits and

vegetables, Brad commented "the only fruit I know

of are certs and starbursts."

Micah was not super excited for his first highschool

dance so Brad tried to pump him up and teach him

how to properly dance with his lady friend.

I took this shot as we left Sergeant Bluff VERY early

Saturday morning for Iowa City. Pretty cool huh?
