Savannahs Choir Festival


Last thursday Savannah had a choir festival. They sang 3 songs and did a great job. They also had to sight-read a song.(Sing something by sight they have never sung before) The got three 2's and a 3. One is the best. They got a 1 on sight reading. They did a fantastic job. Here is a picture of Savannah in the middle of a song.

"Sweet" Sixteen


OH my!!! So Sterling turned 16 on saturday. He had a soccer game which he won and then decided he would have some friends over. So we ended up with 9 kids over watching the Memphis vs. Tennessee game and playing Rockband. It was so loud. But I think he had a good time. He even had his "girl" over. I can't complain now since he's 16. Nothing offical though...just a friend. :) He has to take drivers ed then he gets my truck. OH well. It was a nice truck. :) haha

ARGH!!!! Soccer refs



So both the kids had games Saturday. They both started at 3. To have them at the same time is so strange...but it was great. So we sat and watched Savannahs first half then we walked over to Sterlings and saw the end of his first half. Their fields were right behind each other...again...very odd. So then Savannahs second half starts and we were headed back that way when we hear Savannah yelling and the ref pull out a red card. For those that dont know a red card means you have to leave not just the game but the field and you have a one game suspension. So we ran over there. Savannah was red carded for saying..."no freakin way" literally. That is what the ref said. She used abusive language. When George asked the ref what Savannah said that was abusive the ref said..."She yelled no freakin way and I am just not going to have that kind of language out here." So now the coach filed a formal appeal since the ref also pulled 2 yellow cards...one on the coach for questioning a call and one because a player was"falling too much" mind you it was a very soggy muddy field. So the drama begins. UGH.....oh well Savannah is co-captain and the starting goalie...oh and until she was pulled the score was 0-0 after she was carded it was 0-3. And Sterling was his game like 5-0. OK...hope you are all doing well.

Happy Valentines Day

So yesterday Savannah and Nancy had flowers delivered from George well actually to Savannah they were from Dad, for Nancy they were from George, Sterling and Eli. And mine did not show up. I got my feelings hurt. He is so good about getting flowers and such for no big reason. That when I did not get any I was so sad. So he took me out and we got a gourgeous Lamp Berger, and a coupld candles. So it was all good. Then this morning my 2 dozen red roses showed up. aaahhh......I was much better. Just wanted to share. Hope you all had a great Valentines Day.
