Tascosa vs. Amarillo High

This game is a big rivalry between the two west side schools. The whole week prior to the Friday night game is called "Hell Week". Lots of pranks are done between the two schools during this week. The game this year was won by Amarillo High 14-7. 

Halloween

Carving pumpkins is something that most families do every year. We picked patterns or just free draw like Victor did. Then when it gets dark they are lit for everyone to enjoy. After dinner with our neighbor friends, Debbie and Doug, Victor went to a Haunted House with some Tascosa friends.

League House Fund Raiser or Victor's First Auction

Bryan went out of town to Denver, so Victor went with Tara to the fund raiser for the League House.  This is a home/hotel for families to stay while having treatment at the hospital or while their loved ones are in the hospital.  We had good food and Victor got to see and hear his first auction. We forgot to take a picture until it was almost over.

Maize Maze

CIEE activity this month was the corn maze. Not the first group out, but still had fun. 

Shooting corn at the pumpkin. 

Fair #2

Last weekend we went to the Kansas State Fair and this weekend to the Tri-State Fair in Amarillo. Victor met up with other exchange students and went to the rodeo. Bull riding, calf roping, barrel racing and saddle bronc riding were a few events. 

16th Birthday!!!!

After a day at school we went to dinner at the Amarillo Club, one of Amarillo's oldest restaurants, with a great view of the city.  Victor ordered sorbet for dessert and they added a candle and we all sang Happy Birthday.
