Midway Pantherettes Win State!

We drove down to Austin for the semifinals of the state tournament. Midway won and then went on to win the state game! We all wore our red and blue to cheer on the Pantherettes!

Midway has some very good players! Cokie Reed will be playing for Texas next year. DeLisa Gross will be playing for TCU next year and Mackenzie Robertson (Kim Mulkey's daughter) will be playing for Baylor the year after next. They are a fun team to watch.

Mackenzie is the one on the left under the basket. Cokie Reed is the tallest one on the left with her back to the camera. It was fun to see them play where UT plays. The arena has changed a lot since I was there when Graford was in the playoffs back in the 80s.

Audrey's Guitar Presentation

In fifth grade, Audrey has learned how to play the guitar in music class. Ava Grace, Mimi, and I went to her guitar presentation. Audrey played for us and also had a singing part. It was amazing how much they were able to learn in just 5 weeks!

Valentine's Day at Storytime

Every Thursday, Ava Grace and I go to storytime at the library and then to Chick-fil-A for lunch. Ava Grace loves to do this just like Bailey, Audrey, and Cal did when they were younger. Today the theme was Valentine's Day, of course. Ava Grace was excited that she got to have her own "party" like her brother and sisters! This is Ava Grace making a Valentine craft. She was very determined to get the back off of the crafty hearts by herself!

Mrs. Vivian, our storyteller always has a lot of fun stuff to go with the weekly theme. Ava Grace is standing in front of the Valentine table.

Here is Ava Grace and Mrs. Vivian. We love Mrs. Vivian!

Happy Birthday, Mom!

Happy Birthday, Mom! I hope that you have a great day! Thank you for always being here for us. You and Dad have gone to more games, concerts, school and church activities than one can count. You are always here for us when we need you. I love you!

Girls' Day (and Beau)

Ava Grace and I had a great day with everyone in Weatherford Friday. (We missed you, Melinda!) Beau and Ava Grace had a fun time playing together and keeping each other entertained.

We celebrated Mom's, J'Lynn's, and Beau's birthdays. Aunt Janis, thank you for organizing this fun day!

So Sad That OU Lost!

Last night was a tough night for the OU Sooners! If a couple of things had gone OU's way, they could have very easily won!
Last year we got to go to an Ou game to see Joe Jon play. We went to an OU/ Baylor game in Norman. We even wore our OU gear to show our support! Here is Audrey and Cal (Bailey had a soccer tourn. ) in front of the Sooner Schooner. Audrey's sign said, "I love Baylor, but I am cheering for my cousin Joe Jon."

Joe Jon is #19

Here is Audrey and Cal standing in front of Jason White's statue. OU has these for all of their Heisman winners. Sam Bradford's will be there soon.

We ate with everyone at Golden Corral the next morning. Here is Joe Jon with Audrey, Cal, and Ava Grace.
