Drill Team at State

Yesterday we spent the day at the Yakima Dome watching something like 38 Dance/Drill teams from Washington compete for the State Championship. It is a long day, but all these teams are pretty good and entertaining to watch. Our girls should be so proud of themselves for the dedication and hard work they put into making the Molahiettes a team. With losing a girl at the last minute and a couple hard weeks of sweat, tears and illnesses they came home with the second place trophy for their Drill routine, which is nothing to balk at! These girls are all beautiful, kind and talented and we are very proud be a part of this team!

Decisions, decisions...

We just got back from taking Lindsay to Arizona State University to check out their Downtown Phoenix campus - this campus is only about 2 1/2 years old and very, very nice. The classrooms were nice and all the desks and tables have outlets for the kids computers, phones, ipods etc. The buildings were nice and comfortable, the dorms were nice with a bathroom for every two rooms and to top it off there are washers and dryers on every floor and the washing machine will TEXT your phone and tell you when to come put your clothes in the dryer!! I don't know about Lindsay, but I'm planning on moving there! We also walked around the Tempe campus which is also very nice, went to a Mariners spring training game, visited the Phoenix Zoo and to top it off, had dinner with Ron's brother Art, wife Mary and her family. We had a very fun time and now it's getting closer for Lindsay to make the big decision!

Busy Weekend!

Had a busy and fun weekend...Danny came home for spring break, the girls went to Spotlight Dance competition in Seattle and Lindsay went to the Sweethearts Dance. Ron and I had to split and divide - we all went to Seattle on Friday, watched McKenna do her solo and Lindsay's team do all their numbers, Lindsay and I came back Saturday morning and did all the pre-dance primping...unfortunately Lindsay came down with strep throat and couldn't really enjoy her evening. Ron stayed in Seattle with McKenna and watched all her teams numbers on Saturday, (I really hated to miss that, I haven't seen all her dances yet). Said hello to Danny a split second before he left for a friends house, then my friend Vickie and I took off to take the group pictures of all the decked out teenagers!
