Okay, I am FINALLY updating......I have been very busy, this school year is flying by! Adam was named Flint Hills Scholar Athlete of the month for February. The news people came and interviewed him, filmed him in his classroom and then outside kicking the soccer ball around. We were totally caught by surprise with this one, did not expect this honor at all. Here are a few pictures.....
Meghan is going to the Region 5 Power Lifting meet at Tuloso Midway on March 7th. She lifted a total of 610 pounds between squat, bench and dead lift. Pretty exciting for her, seeing as how she is so small......
She will not appreciate this picture, but oh well :)
One strong "little" girl :)
I can not wait for spring break! Only 3 weeks away! Last year I worked helping clean cottages for some extra cash. This year I am just going to relax, probably play taxi for my kids, but mostly stay home........
The Varsity Soccer team won their first game Friday night against Calallen. Now, Calallen is one of our arch rivals, along with GP. It was so exciting, the boys soccer team doesn't get much respect at school. They are kind of like a scrappy team and they do not have any rhyme or reason to what they really do on the field. They do all get along very well for the most part and you can tell that they are out there having a lot of fun. And even when the score says 9-0, which it has this year more than once already, they still play like they are going to win the game, even if there is only 50 seconds left in the second half of the never ending game! So anyways, we won 2 to 0 against Calallen Friday night, it was GREAT! The boys played awesome and Friday was the start of our second half of play in district, so that means we play everyone in our district a 2nd time, starting with Calallen.
First half of district we went a so sad 0-7, so so sad.......but as of this pass Friday, we are 1-0!!! So nice! So I am going to look at only the second half as of today, 1-0, we play this Tuesday against Ray High School, another power house team, use to be 5A, now they moved down to 4A.......which I am sure if their numbers were re-counted right now they would be a 5A..........anyways, here are a couple of pictures of our VICTORY from Friday night, miracles do happen and I am a firm believer of that, so hey, it could happen again!
The faces of Victory, you had to be there to appreciate their smiles :)
Meghan and Candace made the posters and the sad thing about it is that that is about the extent of our fans for boys soccer with exception of me, Mando and Chelsea and her parents sitting at the top by the press box...........The pink sign, Meghan made for Adam, it says "Go Pookie" #20.....needless to say we heard that a lot Friday night, all the kids had a lot of fun with that nickname.....
Here is Adam's graduating class of 2009
Today is mine and Mando's 23rd anniversary, 26 years of being together. Amazing how fast time goes by, seems like we were just in high school! Crazy! This picture of Mando and I was taken in 2005 for Mother's Day. Couldn't find a more recent one, boy I look thinner :)
And these last couple of pictures are for my dear, dear friend, who is very far away from me, but very close through the world of xanga and facebook! Love you Michelle..........
I think I have out done myself with updating............I am so behind in downloading pictures and developing pictures, terrible. Today I wanted to make cards and send out some notes, but I didn't get to that at all....Oh well, maybe next weekend :) Hope everyone has a FABULOUS! week................later taters!
