Happy Birthday Week

 

 

Happy Birthday week to these lifelong friends, born 4 days apart at the same hospital, delivered by the same doctor.

Interjection...!!!!

...shows excitement, and emotion! OK, how many of you are singing the School House Rock song now? Well, Callie has some big news deserving of those exclamation points! She got one of the lead roles in the 6th grade musical, School House Rock Live. Her primary singing part is the lead solo on Interjections. She is so excited!!!

Cousin Love

We wanted to bring Keelin home with us. She is just a precious, sweet cousin - the girls adore her!

The Pumpkins Have Arrived!

 

The TUMC Pumpkin Patch is open for business again! This year, we will help fund youth mission trips to San Antonio and Chicago. We had over 200 volunteers help with the unloading! God is good.

6th Grade Dance

Just as I was preparing to take this cute group of 6th graders to their first school dance, we noticed a giant rainbow streaming across the front yard. What a lovely gift!

Forte

One of the most fulfilling experiences of parenthood is watching your child discover their forte. It was joyful to watch both girls excel this week at what they love.

Callie kicked it off with, what else, a soccer game. The Rangers won the game 2-1. Triumph enough on its own. However, Callie put the cherry on top by scoring not one, but both goals for her team. Witness the pure delight on her face in the series below!

Fast forward through the week, and it is Madden's turn. She performed beautifully, front and center, at her middle school pep rally - her first performance as captain of the dance team.

Very proud of these two!

Labor Day tourney

The Rangers were co-champions of the Labor Day tournament this past weekend. It was a dreadfully managed affair with a terrible schedule, however, the outcome was pure joy for our group of girls!
