Gunderson Adventures.... where all 6 of Us live life to the fullest!

One of our family's favorite things about Fall is celebrating 2 very special birthdays. This year was really special because it was Drew's 10th birthday. Kyle and I are still shocked that our little Drew is already 10! Incredible how fast time flies. I feel like it was yesterday we were shooting hoops for hours in the basement together. Drew could shoot from all angles and swish it at like 2 years old, no joke!! It was so much fun. And I remember when he was 5 years old and he wanted me to tally all his shots made. We'd also put duck tape down and make up different points for how far away he could shoot. I'd sit on a folding chair with my clipboard, recording. We did this ALL the time!! :) Now, our guy is killin' me at "pig" and showing us how bigger boys play. And of course, how Nike basketball shoes and high socks give you the extra cool look. On to bigger things! Drew has a heart of gold. Most days he loves being the big brother, and plays great ...

We love parades and when we moved to Menomonie we were really excited to hear they had a Homecoming parade!! Every year its a fun tradition.   The boys love the massive amounts of candy given each year and go crazy in the streets grabbing as much as possible, as though they've never had candy before. These smiles are sneaky because they say, "We want candy!"  A little pre-show before the parade began from Drew and Preston- Nice!  Waiting to pounce at any candy dropped. These boys. Then off to the Homecoming game we went! The weather was great and there were tons of fans ready to cheer on the Mustangs! As always the Gboys know that mom only comes along if she has a box of milk duds and a diet coke. The game was pretty intense but in the end, Mustangs won!!! Fun evenings that make great traditions.
