Dying Easter Eggs 2012

The girls all had a good time dying eggs this year. Sam and Mal are finally understanding it and trying to make them pretty. And of course Raegan and Sloane are trying to make art out of their eggs. Ellie's not too interested in any of it :)

Bluebonnets 2012

The annual bluebonnet pictures went as normal. No one looked in the same direction, no one smiled at the same time, and Sam stepped in an ant pile. BUT, we did get a few good pictures of the kids! We waited a little late to take pictures this year but were able to find a small patch in an area that no one would have gotten run over by a car :)

Fever Spring Soccer 2012

Raegan and her teammates have had a GREAT first season together. The girls played in two leages, SDL and primetime. They also helped the 02 Fever team and were able to get experience on the 11v11 field. The girls placed first in both of their leagues. Their record from February to May is 18-1-0. A fantastic start for a brand new team. With their record, they are ranked #4 in the DFW area. We couldn't be more proud of their progress!

Spring Break Camping

We headed to Tyler State Park over Spring Break with the Helms, Greenwoods, and Wilsons. Sloane also went along. The kids had a great time. The park was very nice and the weather was perfect. The kids swam in the lake and we also went paddle boating. Fishing wasn't very good but a few small fish were caught. Sam and Mal were not very good sleepers, at all. But everything else went wonderfully. The kids all had a blast and the parents had a great time hanging out together.

Techno Expo

Raegan was one of 6 groups of kids at Beck invited to attend the Techno Expo and share something that she has done with technology in her learning. She and Maddie completed a Powerpoint presentation in GATES on Macchu Picchu. They got up in front of everyone in the group and did a great time with their presentation. I was very proud of Raegan for her hardwork and creativity.

Valentine's Day 2012

Valentine's Day was pretty uneventful this year. Raegan had a party at school and I was able to attend. As she gets older her parties become less and less of a big thing, which is kind of sad. The kids did a craft, had a snack, and exchanged Valentines. WeSam and Mal had a party at Mrs. Sherry's that I was not able to attend. But I know everyone had a good time.

Winter Blast Soccer Tournament

Fever Black played in their first 11v11 tournament this weekend. The girls came in as underdogs and left as one of the top teams, taking second place in the tournament. The girls lost to Sting in the championship round but beat them in the pool play. The weekend was cold and windy but the girls had fun together and we enjoyed watching Raegan play her heart out (with a double ear-infection nonetheless). Congrats to FEVER BLACK!!!
