February!

In February, basketball came to an end, official soccer season began, and I think it rained 95% of the month!

Besides Chattanooga and basketball, here are some of the things we did:

Meeting up with Monican & Raegan:

Big Money!!

School happenings:

Taylor and Emelia

Taylor and Lila

Taylor's Velentine's Box... but she ended up having strep and had to miss the day at school!

120th day of school!

3rd Grade Field Trip- Tellus Museum:

Snow Day!

These two were supposed to have basketball games, so they were at home with Stephen.

Meanwhile, Sydney and I were at my parents' house! 

The cousins got to hang out!

And celebrate Madeline's 17th birthday!

Friend Fun:

Hanging with Abby and Chloe

Lunch with Izzy and her parents!

"Syzzy" :)

Parker's play date at Eli's- he rode the bus home with them, and they have a bunch of acres to play on!

Lila rode the bus home with Taylor one day!  They were kicking the ball over the tennis court's fence for a good hour ;) 

Soccer is back in action! (2 tournaments in 2 weekends)

Davis' birthday party:

Surprising Ashley for her photographer award!!

Sydney + Zac:

Random:

new haircut!

Kerrigan's volleyball match

Parker started a new basketball league

Taylor- Basketball!

And now to Taylor!  Man, Taylor has grown leaps and bounds this basketball season, it is mind-blowing.  She had grown so much with her dribbling skills since last season, and she practices outside a lot with her shooting, but it was like something "clicked" after 3 games or so where she turned her game on.  Her team ended up being 5-4- there's a wide variety of 3rd grade teams in the county... some are really amazing players and some are... not.  For example, Taylor beat the first team she played 35-0, but lost another game something like 25-8.

Taylor also loves basketball so much now- she's kind of over soccer, though we're committed through May with that.  We'll see where she goes next!

Here are some pics and videos of her season!

3rd Grade team!

Their teacher came to cheer them on :)

She played against a soccer teammate!

My sister and fam came to cheer her on!

So did her friend Lila.

And her friend Abby... and then we went to see her play!
