Hollywood in Texas

At school we have been busy writing books the last couple of months. We participated in a program where each child gets to become a published author of a hardcover book. With each first grader able to make a book, it was only fitting to show them off by having our annual Hollywood Book Premiere. We all came to school decked and had a fabulous time. Parents came in the afternoon and each child sat in the author's chair while I spotlighted him/her and each got to read a portion of the book. I was lots of fun! Here I am with my silly kiddos dressed to the nines.

Give me an "S"..."A"..."D"..."E"..."Y"!

We officially have a highschool "rah rah" at our house! Sadey had tryouts for Freshman Cheer today and found out this evening that she made the squad!

We are so proud of her. She has been taking tumbling the last couple of months to prepare and her sore legs have paid off! She has practiced more than ever, done yoga like crazy, and pushed herself harder than ever before to improve.

Sadey, we are so proud of you and excited for you to start high school this way!

Go Dragons!

Beautiful Blue

It's that time of year again...they are along the sides of the roads and highway. They are a striking blue, one of my favorite colors, and I love seeing them. Originally I was surprised by the size, barely rising above the ground, knowing they represent such a huge state as Texas. I do love them all the same. Am I becoming a Texan??? Hmmm.
