Monday, November 12, 2012. 2012 Homecoming and a Little Birthday Action. Upon returning to "the 904", I was slung into the Three-Day Homecoming Triathlon. My first day home was the parade. How blessed I am to have great cheer parents, cheer coaches, and dance parents that will help me out. The homecoming theme this year was "Around the World". The JV Cheerleaders chose "Where in the World is Waldo? As their float theme. The looked SO CUTE! Look at the shiny blue pants they found! It was a fun game, thoug...

Monday, November 11, 2013. The Last 2 Weeks - Part I. I'm going to try to do a little catch-up over the next few days. We have had about 2 weeks of intense activity and we should "quiet down" now for a week or two (hahaha - I say that to convince myself that it's not too bad). Travis is off to Detroit permanently, except for when he's here. So, here are some things that have happened:. Maddie used to sit and give Kyle dirty looks during Rozzie's and Morgie's lessons. Last Saturday as I taught a pillowcas...

The Purple Palace: February 2013

Friday, February 22, 2013. When I started working at FIHS, I was very surprised to find out that they still did a beauty pageant in the hight school. As I've gone to see the pageant now for 10 years, I've seen that it isn't so much a beauty pageant as it is a fun experience for these girls to challenge themselves and have a bit of fun dressing up! It is a pretty big deal in all the schools. In the past few years, the dance team has provided the winners of the pageant, as well as the 1st runner-up! I had ...

Thursday, May 29, 2014. Let's Move on To MARCH MADDNESS. As I said, February was great and fun things happened. My JV Cheer team won at Nationals and my varsity team came in 3rd (which is really fantastic - see the title). March was more fun, tho. So they danced another day! Maddie helped out with makeup. Maddie getting her makeup done. Each year, Rozzie and Nora get pictures taken right here on this "sofa" at the Hard Rock hotel. Rozzie with her coach and other captain, Dea. Aunt Laurie, Aunt Marylee, a...

Tuesday, June 10, 2014. I Forgot To Mention! Last summer at dance camp, Maddie auditioned to become an "All-American". She had to learn a dance and then audition in front of the entire camp. She passed the audition and received an invitation to dance in the London New Year's Day Parade! After discussing the tour, we decided to allow her to go! In Orlando ready to go! Meeting friends on the long plane ride. I remember seeing this first picture posted and thinking, "Wow! And she made it! Finally it was New...

Sunday, October 7, 2012. What a Cool School! It has been a few weeks since I posted. There was cheering, dancing, school work, and football. Rozzie had birthday parties to attend. Her good friend Kaity turned 16 and had a "cocktail" party. They did a photo booth set up and got some of the cutest pictures ever! Rozzie borrowed a lace dress from a friend and had a great time. I thought the photo booth was a really cute idea. Rozzie and Kaity hamming it up. Dancing on FOX 30 news! We took the shark cupcakes...

Sunday, June 9, 2013. A Race to the Finish. The 2013 Senior Kickball game. That week, we also got to hand out our state championship rings to the cheer team. That was lots of fun to see them all so excited about it. The ring is rather large; it covers knuckle to knuckle! Then there was that week that Morgan came home! As always, Morgan has a good time wherever she goes! JoAnna was a beautiful bride! We were able to go out to lunch for Rozzie's 17th birthday! Lunch at Bahama Breeze. Many of you have heard...

Sunday, August 18, 2013. The Start of Something Special. Last week was the hottest week of the summer. That can only mean one thing: BACK TO SCHOOL! And what a week we had! Hannah continues to be taller than most of us. We will miss her SO MUCH! By the way, Rozzie is 5'6"). This combination spelled lots and lots of laughs. Off to seminary and school in Celia. She's been a good car. Tuesday was the first day of school and seminary for us. Rozzie is a senior and Maddie is a sophomore. The sophomores had th...
