Fall Orchestra

Orchestra

The next two posts are songs from Ellie's recent orchestra concert.  I am always so impressed by the music they can play.  This is all 9th grade students at their first high school concert.  Enjoy!!

Seasons have switched

We have moved from volleyball and football to hockey and dance.  So far dance is doing lots of practicing and Sam has had two hockey games.  His team has tied both games.  He is a Pee Wee C player this year.  Ellie is on the Varsity Kick and Jazz team for Austin High School.  It is going to be such a fun and busy winter this year!

Homecoming

I am still getting used to saying I have a girl in high school.   And this moment was even harder- off to a Homecoming Dance.  She went with a group of friends but it is a big deal in Austin.  We bought the right dress, did the hair, had dinner with lots of 9th graders, and then off to the dance.  Ellie said it was really fun!

Yes with a little help from friends I accomplished this hair-do.

Love that these girls have so much fun together

Many 9th graders got together for supper before hand

A couple more of Ellie's good friends

Who doesn't love being a Champion

Sam's 6th grade football team had a great season.  They ended being the Champions. So great to get to see them learning, having fun, and winning too!
