Christian was on a bowling league this past year and has his end of the year banquet just recently. He and his teammate, Lenny, took 2nd place! This is amazing because they were in 6th place (last) for almost the entire season. The last 2 months they slowly starting climbing up in the ranks. Also, Christian took 2nd place for highest Handicap Series (3 game series w/ handicap included). Lenny took 1st. Christian had so much fun with bowling this year that he has already decided that he HAS to play again next year. So looks like he and Lenny will be partners again.
Jessica had her fall concert this past Thursday night. The band played first and I was very impressed! It's so hard to believe that for most of the kids, this is their first year playing! Bellevue schools don't start instruments until 6th grade. But since Jessica was in OPS district last year, she had already been playing for a year.
Today, Jessica had her 2nd gymanstics meet. It was the State Gymnastics meet in Fremont. There were 6 girls in her age category and level. I'm pretty sure it was the same 6 girls that were at the Omega Fun Fest where Jessica placed 2nd all-around, 1st in vault, 2nd on beam, 2nd on bars and 5th on floor (she fell).
Unfortunately, today wasn't a great day for Miss Jessica. She placed 6th overall and didn't place in the top 4 for any of the individuals. Oh well! She had a blast and that's what counts. And as they say, different day, different judge. She could have performed the same way for a different set of judges and scored higher. Oh well!
Here's her bar routine:
I was going to add all of the videos but it takes FOREVER to upload.
During her floor routine, Emma almost ran out on the floor to join her. It was kind of amusing, but I think it distracted Jessica :(
Tomorrow night she has her Solo and Ensemble night for band. She's playing a Sax Solo, Duet and she's also in a Wind Ensemble.
Next Monday, Alex has his Spring Concert for Band. Those are always good. They have an amazing band program at his school. He's excited about marching band for next year. Not sure how I feel about having to get up in time to get him to school by 7:00.....lol.
Unfortunately, we won't be able to attend Sara and John's wedding as that is the same day as Jessica's dance recital.
Now if we can just find time to schedule our family vacation!!
