2020 Pom Season

Leave a Comment

This school year has certainly been a crazy one! My daughter hasn’t stepped foot in a classroom since the middle of March. Middle school sports were all canceled this Fall, but her pom squad was still allowed to meet and practice for competitions that are held outside of school. This has been one constant thing in her life this school year that is keeping her motivated!

Unfortunately, the first of their three competitions was canceled. The second one took place as scheduled (without spectators), but her squad had to drop out at the last minute due to an injury on their team. The third competition was virtual this year. The girls recorded their routine and submitted their video last weekend. We find out the results this coming weekend.

I took photos of all of the girls at the beginning of November. These are Maddie’s. I can’t believe how much she has changed over the past year. Having braces on definitely changed her smile!

Long time no see…and a Fall playlist

Leave a Comment

Apparently I’m a terrible blogger. I did not even realize that I haven’t posted anything since May of 2019! I mean, I realize that 2020 has been a crazy year, but I didn’t realize that it had been over a year since I logged on to this little page of mine.

As with many of you, I’m sure, a lot has happened with our family over the past year. I’ll do an update post soon, but for today, I’m sharing a Fall playlist that I just put together. The temperatures have dropped, the leaves have all changed colors and are falling from the trees. Most nights I just want to curl up on the couch with a blanket and relax. These songs all help me to unwind. I hope you enjoy!

Last Day of School

Leave a Comment

And just like that, the school year is over.  I’m not going to lie, I have been ready for summer for weeks now!  The end of the school year is always so jam-packed with activities.  I just get worn out.  Add to it that this was my daughter’s last year in elementary school. (I’m not crying, you’re crying!)

Washington DC

Wowzers!  It’s been quite a while since I last shared anything on here with you all.  In an effort to keep myself a little organized, I’m going to share our most recent summer travels and then work backwards from there.

We decided that it would be fun to spend 4th of July at our nation’s capitol this year.  It was hot, crowded, and we did more walking than I ever want to do again.  However, we had a great time and I think the kids really enjoyed being able to see part of our country’s history.  We managed to make it to the National Archives, The Natural History Museum, The Air & Space Museum, and The American History Museum.  We were also able to make it to the White House, the Capitol, and most of the monuments and memorials.

Our first full day there was July 4th and we started the day off with a parade.

We ended the day with a concert at the steps of the Capitol and then watching fireworks on the Mall.

I don’t have many photos from inside the museums, but here are some of the highlights from around the city!
