-Stephen broke his left pinky playing gaga ball during recess. Years of forest school and the first school broken bone is on a playground! He wore a splint for about 6 weeks and was able to still play some of his soccer games.

-Isaac and Julia continue to have braces

-During fall break Nate, Caleb and Isaac went backpacking on the Manistee Trail with the Gabrielse, Schaaps and Nathan DeWitt. They were wet and cold the first night, but it dried up and they had a good time. Stacy and the younger 3 stayed home and spent time apple picking with Dallas, Keira and Melody and spent time with Uncle Ben, Aunt Steph and Hez for a couple days. 

-Julia started her weekly art class again

-Nate, Carl and Dave Stielstra went to an MSU football game- their Father's Day present. 

-Stephen started an acting class thru Holland Recreation 

-We carved pumpkins at the DeWitts, along with the Gabrielse, Stielstras and Halmas

-Stephen and Lexi trick or treated around our neighborhood. Julia opted to watch tv and pass out candy. Isaac went trick or treating with friends, dressed like Inspector Gadget, unfortunately no picture. Caleb had a party with friends and dressed as a secret service agent, using his band tux- again, no picture.

-Julia got contacts and loves them 

-One of the waverunner engines was being rebuilt in Arizona all summer. It was returned in October and Nate got the waverunner put back together. He and Isaac then took them for a test run, probably the latest they have ever been on the water.
