Basketball Cheer {8th Grade}

 We spent our winter watching and working ALOT of basketball games. 

While we are working concessions for most girls and boys basketball games, my favorite part was watching this one cheer. 

She is officially done with Middle School cheer. 

Basketball and Competition and Tumbling. 
She keeps us busy! 


Always have fans of our girl!

Pajama practice and one of her coaches got engaged!






She was leaving this game and heading straight to try outs for the Spring Play! 
I was so excited for her!!! 

Spoiler Alert: She is in the ensemble!




Always smiling! 


Mathlete!

I received a call from Addy's Math teacher because he said he needed to talk to me. I was nervous because Addy is my "perfect" child. 

She logged into to do her next Math assignment and there wasn't anything there. Thinking it was a glitch in the system, he called the company only to find she finished 8th Grade Math. 

Yes, she finished the entire curriculum in FOUR MONTHS. While triple sporting in the Fall. This kid amazes me! I didn't even know it was a thing and apparently the school didn't either. It's unprecedented. 

Since I love any reason to celebrate, we had a party! 
Keep reaching for the stars, Addycakes....while you work on your Freshman Math. 


 

Nate's Golden Soberversary

We will always celebrate this anniversary! 

Uncle Nate celebrated 18 years of sobriety on January 18th! 
What an amazing accomplishment and I'm so incredibly proud of him each and every day. 


Addy made his cake!
