8/29 - Greg and I got to go down for the A&M vs Texas State football game. Kids were in school since it was a Thursday so Grandma stayed with the kids and Patch. We headed down in the morning, had some lunch and shopping until we were able to check in. Then we enjoyed a few drinks at the George before heading to early dinner at Porter and then walking to the game. Aggies won!
8/27 - Friday Landon was told he had made the A team in football. He wasn’t sure about that because compared to a lot of those guys he’s smaller, he’s playing for fun and most of his friends are on B team. We found out today he got moved to B team. We are all ok with that
8/21 - Kasey started her Pom Junior class today. They will perform 4 times with the last one being at the dance recital. She is taking it with a friend and enjoyed it.
8/17 - The boys got up early and went for their first Philmont training session - they walked 5 miles with backpacks and weights. Its the start of a journey. Kasey and I slept in and I walked the dog just before the boys got back.
8/12 - What at day. I worked during the day then headed home early. Landon had football checkin and it was meet the teacher night at the elementary school. I got setup for PTA table which Kasey helped out. I was wearing my VP membership nametag, my Girl Scout Leader pin, and Boy Scout ribbon with Landon's rank pins on it (in case people had questions). Since I was at the PTA table for most of the evening we got to go to Kasey's teachers little early. We went to her homeroom teacher's class. Kasey unpacked her supplies.
We got to meet her homeroom teacher and ELA/Social studies teacher - both are named Mrs Wheeler. We also got to hug her math teacher Mrs Harper who Landon had. I spent the next few hours answering questions about PTA in the cafeteria. Then I headed home to eat fast dinner and we headed to the Church for Boy Scout Court of Honor. Landon received his Life Rank which is the rank below Eagle (very proud of him). Landon was also one of the people leading the Court of Honor (MC for parts of it) and he received several merit badges from the summer.
8/10 - Most schools have moved to only electronic notification of teachers for the next year. Our school sends electronic notification and sends home a letter in the mail from the teachers. We found out Friday who Kasey had but she didn't want to know until she got her letter. So today Kasey checked the mail several times and it wasn't there. We get a picture of the mail each day so I knew it was coming. Finally Kasey found her letter. She was so excited opening it and when she did she started yelling happily. She got really good teachers and was excited. She doesn't have to many friends in her class but has good teachers so she will be good.
