My daughter finished first in her swim meet. Looking at the pictures I took there was no one else even in the same frame.

Unfortunately she was still the last out of the locker room.

My 7th grader made Junior Clinic. 2nd chair bassoon and has only been playing bassoon for 6 months! They had their concert this weekend, and he did so good!

Yay. We need more band kids.

Good Bassoon players get college scholarships, even if you are not a music major.

That's the plan. He wants to be a band director/orchestra conductor. The middle school directors and the high directors both told him that if he practices and gets really good, he can get really good college money. His aunt told him she'd end him to a Yamaha music camp this summer too. He's really excited!

There is also a good summer camp at JMU in VA. It has marching and concert band options. My son loved it back in the day. he is now a HS Band director.

My B/F's 11yr old son competed in his first JV wrestling meet yesterday. He has been practicing for the past few weeks and this was his first go ... So proud of him even though JV cannot score points he did great, He also pinned a 7th grader the other day in practice....This may be his "thing"

I will have to look into that one too. Is it open for middle school?

He's going to the camp at Ball State in Muncie this summer.

My oldest daughter (8th grader) was in a video posted by her school yesterday and she was declared one of the top two students for cow roping! Lol! They had a local farm company come in and teach them. It made me laugh, but I'll tell you why it was actually significant....my husband's family owned a cattle ranch when he was little and my brother in law owns several feed lots. I guess it's in her blood!! smile My husband was quite proud of his little girl!!

My youngest - a 9 month old Border Collie - successfully herded two steers that got out into our yard and she sent them back to the pasture and came back. smile

That is awesome! My 7month old furr-kid is working on an adult bite-sleeve and just got her good citizenship award last Saturday. If the cows get in I will call you..

After 6 years, two bachelors degrees and 1 very hard NYS Registered Nursing exam, I am happy to say that my daughter is now officially an BSN RN, with a job already in the Neuro unit of a large hospital here in upstate NY.
Wow, I am so happy for her!

It's a good day in my world smile

My 19 year old passed the pack test for the Department of Natural Resources on Saturday. They have to walk (not allowed to run) 3 miles in 45 minutes or less while carrying a 45 pound pack on their backs. It seems like a simple task until you feel the pack they have to wear! Wow! That sucker is heavy!!

He begins his career with them on May 1st as a crew boss. They have a couple weeks of refresher training (he's already certified) and then they'll be ready to go when the fire season hits. He will be based about 2 hours north of home, so at least he's close enough that we can see him on his days off!

I'm very proud of him for pursuing this passion of his, but it's also bittersweet when we have to let our kids grow up and become the adults we raised them to be!
