Comet Cheer!!

Genoa's Varsity Cheer Squad made it to the state finals! 

It was very exciting! 

Amy's daughter, Ella, is a varsity cheerleader so we decided to make a little trip out of it. 

For 24 hours, I was just Sara. Not a mom or a wife. 

Took a photo with John's favorite coach! 

 And we got to day drink!! 

Genoa took 2nd place at State. This was before the performance and the squad was praying so sweet!

Congrats Ella!! We love you!

Weekend Fun!

We didn't have any big happenings over the weekend so we organized a playdate with our favs! 

Hot tun fun! 

Snuggles in bed!

We finished the weekend at a new restaurant that has gourmet shakes! 

Addy's shake was a vanilla shake with a cupcake, lollipop, cotton candy, chocolate coin, sour candy strip, and a popsicle!! 

Ava's was a peanut butter shake with a Nutty Bar, buckeyes, nutter butters and cherries! 

They were so good!!!

See You Later, Braces!!!

March 5th will probably be one of the best days for Ava! 

She got her braces off!!

BEFORE! Two years ago!

Look at that gorgeous smile!

They took some photos before we could leave. But we are soooo pleased with the results!

State Cheer!

Genoa's Varsity Cheer Squad was invited to participate at the State Competition. 

One of my best friend's daughter is on the squad and I decided to tag along. 

I was only Sara for a full 24 hours. 

I had a margarita

Arancini

and truffle fries!!!! 

I slept in a hotel bed by myself. 

Then cheered on the Comet Cheerleaders!!!

They were fantastic and placed 2nd in their division! 

Great job Ella!!! Love you!

Then I went home and was snuggled by Addy. 

Think she missed me?

Daddy/Daughter Dance

The girls had a big date night with Daddy! 

Genoa PTO hosted their second annual Daddy/Daughter Dance! 

They dressed in their best (one of them got their hair curled) and off they went. 

Dancing, fun and snacks!! 

They had a great time!

Snow Day - PART 2!

We had another snow day!! 

Fortunately the girls have a Daddy who likes to take them to play outside when it's freezing. 

Off to the sledding hill they went where they ran into Maisie and Family!!

This turned into an all day play date and dinner together for the families!

Nothing like a snow day to enjoy the hot tub. 

Not pictured: The mama who sat next to the fire place. 

End of Year Cheer Banquet

Another cheer season has come to an end. 

Addy absolutely loves it and so well! 

Funny story:

During the cheer season, as the squad wins and collects trophy's, they are held until banquet. 

Because there aren't enough for every child, they do a little "lottery" for the girls. These are extremely coveted and Addy has put her name in for the last few years. 

She had literally been talking for weeks, hoping she would win. 

Imagine our pure joy when her name was called!! 

She was so excited!!! 

Another shot with the amazing coaches! They run a great program and love them!!
