The first W!

It was a mud-spattered Monday morning at the field but team PIC’s dedication finally paid off as we completed our game victoriously!
Our First BIG W of the season! WAY to kick it Paradise in Cleats!

Halloween Experience by Noah

On Halloween Mr. Brad came and showed us how to carve a pumpkin. He talked funny and he was wearing a Japanese costume. We wanted the pumpkin face to be scary instead of happy. Mr. Brad also made us take the brains out, it was slimy. We named it killer head and said it again so we can remember it. We were very loud but Ms. Kathy wasn't mad. Then Mr. Brad left and there was an earthquake . We didn’t feel it cause killer head saved us. We went back to class and had a lot of candy.

Favorite quote of the day:
-Why are you wearing girls slippers Mr. Brad?

OPOTG!

My name made it to the OPOTG (Offensive player of the game) list for soccer! Wohoo! I don't know how they pick, but I'm not even gonna' ask. I just love that someone thinks I'm getting somewhere with this sport. Finally!
Lovelle also made it :D And although she's been featured on the NMIFA blog countless times, I'm still really proud of her.
Rhonda was picked too! another Wohoo! It wasn't too long ago when she was struggling with the thong-like shin guards.
