She came, she cheered...

This has been a long week (or, a few long weeks strung together for the past few months). While thankful that Chris is gainfully employed and that his company is productive enough to have "busy season", it's hard. I may or may not have emotionally lost it this week. Our whole family was very much looking forward to this weekend--lots of fun and time to be together!

Last night was the football game. We picked up pizza and ate at the stadium. It was elementary night so the cheerleaders were doing free tatoos on the kids' faces and there were kids everywhere. The weather has finally decided it's fall and it was a wonderful night--I was so thankful that Chris was home in time to go with us! Such fun. Anna-Kate and a handful of other elementary girls in cheerleading uniforms went out onto the field with the real cheerleaders during the second quarter. My girl was in her element. Normally shy Anna-Kate was cheering, following along in the cheers and mingling with the high school girls. I'm not gonna lie, I had dreams of her being another little point guard like myself...but I do believe she will be charting her own course...on the top of a pyramid. Sigh. :)

Big smiles!



More weekend fun to come. :)
