One big ol' blog update

 It has been a very busy, very productive week here in our neck of the woods.
 Colin was wrestler of the week at SFT.  When I was working at the after prom dinner, I snuck  away for a few minutes to take a photo of the bulletin board.  Colin also got a Big 7 league honorable mention.
He had Regionals this weekend, and Jim has been down in Burlington watching.  Unfortunately Colin did not qualify for state, and so his season is now over.  We are so proud of him anyhow!  It was a great season!
 This means that Madison's little stint as the "wrestling team cookie baker" is now over as well!  She has baked them fresh cookies in mass quantities for weeks now.  I wonder what she will be doing with her Friday afternoons?  There are 2 'helpers' who will probably go through massive cookie withdrawal!

 Harper decided that she and Saige should wear overalls to Jr. High basketball this week!  She said it would be good luck!  She was wrong, but they looked cute anyhow!
 Last night was "senior night" at the basketball game.  They honored all the basketball seniors as well as the band seniors, forensics seniors and I think some dance team seniors as well.  I have to say it was a little bit of a sad night, as I am still not wrapping my mind around my girls being seniors!  Jim was very sorry to miss out on the evening, but he was at Colin's regional tournament.  I had Cameron take photos.  And he did.  A LOT of photos.  Some of the ceremony, and some of other things unrelated to senior night at the game.  In fairness, he was trying to wrestle Saige at the same time!

 The photos are in no particular order.







 Also this week, we ripped up our bathroom floor and the guy is supposed to come put new flooring down on Monday.  We have listed our house for sale, and had one showing already.  I am keeping my fingers crossed that the sale goes quickly.  The kids, while excited about having a different house, and life in the country, are fine with not moving any time soon!  

 While Jim was at regional wrestling, Madison took Quincy to her basketball game and I took Preston to his game.  Preston's team lost 6 to 21 and all 6 of his team's points were scored by Preston.  He is an aggressive thing....which is a little bit surprising if you know Preston at all - he is a pretty passive kid with a compliant personality....off the court anyhow!  :)




 Now we are going to try to get caught up a little bit from all the running of the week!
