Straight A's!

We got Alex's report card and she has all "A's"!!! This is a first for ALL A's. Great job Alex! I even took a photo of the report card, see below, in the bottom right corner are the summary grades, ALL "A's"!!! Woo Hoo! Below that are some cute pictures of Alex....... Yup, that's mine! Check it out!

Alex is a cheerleader!

Alex has decided to try cheerleading, so, we signed her up at Alpine Cheer to begin cheerleading. Next year is middle school and if you want to be a middle school cheerleader you'd better have your act together! I had no idea cheer was so big now! It's very competitive, a seroius workout, and you can even get college scholarships for Cheerleading. Alex is having a blast! She has her backhandspring, and is working on two in a row. I think Alpine is a pertty decent place, they have a ton of team trophies and national and regional champoinship banners in the gym. The only drawback for Alex is all the pink. (not her favorite color!) The place looks like it was dunked in Pepto!

Rich kept teasing Carlie about her stuffed dog (brownie). He kept telling her it was a cat. She spent most the weekend trying to convince him it is a DOG! Carlie & Sherry
