Cameron's Football Jamboree

And so it begins.

We started this football season off with a bang. Cameron's team played in a jamboree on Saturday in Pasco Wa. I don't know how many teams were there, but I can tell you I had to park 3 blocks away. Crazy!!! The Mustangs(Cameron's team) had to play against 3 teams that day. They played 10 minutes on offense and then 10 minutes on defense.

Here is Cameron playing Right tackle.

Cameron is #26 in the Red.

He did very well. He got allot of playing time both on offense and defense.

Here Cameron is standing with his team waiting for their next game.

The Mustangs won all three games today. They won the first game 4-3, the second game 4-0 and the last game 1-0 thanks to Cameron.

This picture is of Cameron making an awesome tackle. He was playing defensive back during the last game and the score was 0-0. It was the last few seconds the opposing team was on offense and there runner had broken through the mustang line on the right side of the field and was heading for the end zone. Cameron ran from the left side of the field and caught up to the kid for the tackle and saved the Mustangs undefeated record. The Mustangs went on to score only one touchdown against the Seahawks.

Crab Boil

After a successful day of crabbing what else can you do other than have a real Louisiana Crab Boil? It was so good. We Boiled Crab, Shrimp, Corn on the cob, Potatoes,Onion & Aundui Sausage in a Zataran's Crab Boil Seasoning that a friend of my dads brought from Louisiana. You then throw it out on butcher paper and eat. It was so good. It was quite spicy, I had to apply chap stick a number of times throughout dinner. The boys kept putting their lips in there glasses of milk.

Here is Ryan, he has such table manners.. Mom and Dad invited their neighbors Bob and Lanna. They are a couple of retired school teachers from Portland. Bob played baseball for the Baltimore Oriels in the 60's. The stories he told were cool. The boys just loved it.

It was a wonderful evening and as you can see a beautiful day. We spent the rest of the evening enjoying our full bellies and talking till the sun went down. It was a perfect ending to a perfect day.

A Day on the Ocean in the Sherl K.

We could not have asked for better weather on Thursday.

Thursday we headed out to do some fishing and cabbing in the Nahalem Bay. We Boarded the Sheryl K about 11:30.

For those of you that know my parents, yes Sheryl K is my Mom's name. My dad is that smooth. Ryan asked me after he herd about my Dad's new boat if he could get a new boat if he promised to name it the Heather A. I told him it was too late. It had already been done.

Here is my Mom driving the Sherly K. She had no idea how good my Dad really was until we were talking about all the fancy equipment that he had installed and he said "Nothing is too good for the Sheryl K." Ryan turned to him and said man you really are good. Could you teach me some of that.

My Dad just smiled and told him it took years to perfect it but he would do what he could to help. I told them that it was too late. I was on to them now.

We dropped 3 crab pots in the Bay and and were fortunate to catch 4 crab. That may not seam like much, but this time of year that is pretty good.

Coast Trip

Tuesday morning after Ryan got off work we headed to Salem and spent the night with my Grandma "B". We had tuns of fun. We of course ate way to much food and stayed up late playing a fun domino's game called chicken feet. Wednesday morning we got up and headed to my parents house down on the Oregon Coast in Rockaway Beach. Mom and Dad were there for 10 days, so we thought it would be fun to catch up with them.

Wednesday on the beach was pretty ugly. It wasn't until after 4:00 some time that the weather broke and we could take a walk down to the beach. That's OK though. We had great company back at the house. We enjoyed spending time visiting with my parents and Grandpa and Grandma "B" came up for the day.

We made a good size sand castle. It is allot harder than it looks. We will be appreciating the ones we see down on the beach from now on. Mom and Dad came down to watch the masterpiece under construction.

The Class of 1988

Lanna, Becky, Eric, Heather, Ila, Lindy, Travis, Kevin, Brent & Blain.

The class of 1988 and our families.

Ila and I at Nookies

Well I can't believe it. It has been 20 years. The class of 1988 graduated 20 years ago. I feel way to young to say things like this.

It was so much fun. We had 22 in our graduating class and 2 have passed away. We had 10 show up to the reunion. That is 50%. Not to bad. We started off on Friday evening with a little get together in Hermiston at Nookies. It would have been a quiet little gathering if the Hermiston graduating class of 1988 had not decided to gather at the same place at the same time. (crazy) It was still cool though because those Hermiston kids were the kids I went to school with before moving to Stanfield my freshman year. Saturday afternoon we had a BBQ at the school. We invited a few teachers and enjoyed a fabulous BBQ.

We are only going to wait 5 years next time. Hopefully we will get more of us to show.

Happy Birthday to my friend Teresa !!!!!

Happy Birthday Teresa. We won't mention how old you are. My friend Teresa had her birthday today and a bunch of us girls got together to help her celebrate. You can always count on this crowd, especially if there is some form of food involved. he he!!!!

That's a great look for you Teresa !!!!

Do we know how to party or what???

Football AHHHHH!!!!!

Holly Smokes it's that time again. Football season has begun for the Savage Family. Cameron and Ryno both started practicing today(dad's helping to coach). I don't think it gets much more grooling than football conditioning. 100 deg. temperatures in full gear. That's right even Cameron at 9 yrs old is playing in fool gear. These Prosser people don't mess around when it comes to football. I will be sure to keep the football pics coming.

Coach Kelly Bowen and Ryan trying to sort through the Kayos.

Handing out the plays...

I think maybe we need more coaches...................
