Long Weekend But .....


This has been a long weekend but has been fun. This weekend was the basketball tournament for 6th grade at our school, St. John. Ian's team did very well. All of their games were close (I hardly had a voice after each of the games.) The games were so close and stressful. Ian's team won the first game, lost the second game and the final game ....... they won~!!!!! Giving them third place in the tournament. They won the final game in the last few seconds of the game. They had one play and one chance to execute the play and they did it!!! They are playing so well and have learned so much this year. They are playing like a team and that is certainly making a difference this year. Way to go, Ian!!!!
Abby also started Forensics this weekend. Forensics is a form of speech giving, or reading poetry, telling stories etc....Abby is doing storytelling. This is her third year in forensics and each year she has done a different category. For her first meet, she did exceptionally well (again). She got first place in both rooms (you perform twice) and she got a bronze medal which they give to the exceptional pieces performed. She almost did not have a voice for her performance because she woke up that morning with frog in her throat. Thankfully all went well and she excelled!!!!
Way to go, Abby!
I did somehow get to quilt a bit. I started on a table runner for Valentine's Day. It is made with Moda fabric. Here is the top done. It just needs to be quilted and bound. Wish me luck on getting this done before the 14th. TTFN
