Jack Turns 11

Happy Birthday to our Jack William... guess what he was sick!  This guy was all set to celebrate with a few friends at Altitude, the trampoline park!  He took it well and finally got to celebrate at the park with a few friends a few weeks later.

We are so proud at the young man Jack is becoming.  He is funny!!!! kind, loving, studious and respectful.  He could have more patience with his little brother and be less afraid of failing but his drive is what keeps me going!  We love you Jacky, keep making us smile!

Competition Season Begins

Dance fever is in the air... after a weeks of extra weekend practices and a week of extra nightly practices, the Majestics Petite Novelty team is ready for their first competition.  This Saturday morning at 5 am Katie and I will be picking up a teammate and her mom and heading for Magnolia High School!  Katie is so excited, she told the boys tonight she would be going to be earlier than them Friday night.  The girls have been working so hard on this dance and the moms have been working hard on the props... lots of pictures to come!  First preview, I did Katie's hair for a practice run and it was deemed the official hair for the competition...

Halloween in December!

A big huge thank you to our friend Szalan for dropping off Zane's old costumes.  It was a big sack of fun for today and probably for the rest of the year.  Luke has just discovered Mario & Luigi and could not have been more excited to uncover the Mario hat and we have now added Superman to our super hero dress up collection.  My favorite by far was the Bullseye costume... Oh how I wish we still had our Woody & Buzz to go with them!
