Last Friday night was the big homecoming game at the new highschool. Not much hope for the team since there are no seniors but we weren’t there for the football. We were there for the band. Ellie cheered more for her big brother than for the team, but that was just fine. Brandon was once again a featured soloist for the halftime show. Here he is performing on the sidelines:

Fireworks provided by local businesses capped off the halftime highlights. That was all we took in since it was getting late and it was cold. Brandon and Kaley went to the dance the following night. I had fun directing Brandon on how to iron his shirt. Here are the two of them before setting off to the dance:

Just one week ago, we awoke to the earliest snow in 24 years around here. This is what I saw:



Last Saturday also had Anna’s All Star dance team performing at a local high school dance show. It was the first time the group has performed their routine and I have to say I was impressed (and that’s not just because I am the mother).


Last Sunday we celebrated our nephew, Matt’s, birthday with the family.
It snowed again on Tuesday, this time enough to have catch snowflakes on our tongues:

have a snowball fight:

and make a snowman:

It snowed again on Thurday, yep three times already this year, but since it was the third time I wasn’t inspired to take snow pictures.
Here is my photo collage of the week:

great pictures girl!! Loved every one (of course). I agree about the dancing, its the best I’ve seen them do. Great job Anna! Ellies snowman is really good and she looks Maaavelous! Brandon’s girl friend is pretty sharp…glad you are getting him “trained” on ironing. It’s an important skill for any man (right?).
