Asher had his first official drum lessons with his new teacher, Anthony. He loved it. Anthony said for being a new drummer, Asher's further along than most beginners which was great to learn. Asher's really eager to get better and has been putting in the time to practice both on his electric and regular drum set. He really likes this teacher & I'm excited to see him get better & better!!
Macie had her first cello lesson with Mr. Bozman. This lesson was more to see what she knows & where she's at. They played the songs she's learning at school (Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, Mary Had a Little Lamb & Hot Cross Buns) & he showed her how to play more notes on the cello. She really enjoyed it. She immediately wanted to call Ethan & tell him what she learned & that she had a lesson from his teacher. Her goal is to be able to play 'The Swan' like Ethan can. It's so fun to see her so excited about learning to play. Hopefully the excitement continues! I'm so excited to see where this journey takes her.
Caleb had his last Winter Formal. Asher chose not to go since a lot of his friends weren't going. Caleb didn't go with a date, just met up with friends. He also wanted to go more casual since Winter Formal isn't as big of a deal as Prom. We stopped over at Ryder's house so they could take a picture together first before they drove over to the school. When Caleb came home, he said he had a fun time. He then changed & headed over to a party. Can't believe he's half way through his senior year!
My neighbor & friend, Richelle, invited me to see The Notebook at the Pantages with her. We went to dinner & drinks first down the street from the show. It was such a good & moving show. It's based off the book & movie which is sad but we knew that going into it. Of course I bawled like a baby. It was a beautiful show & such a fun night out with a friend!
Caleb & Asher made the Principal's Honor Roll! They're both such smart & committed boys. Fred & I are so proud of how hard they work in school, swim, band, work... they're great kids. They're both taking on so much with their AP & Honor classes & still manage to get incredible grades. Way to go, Siffy & Boo!!
For our family Christmas gift, we gave the kids a VIP trip to Medieval Times. With our family being the way it is, totally goofy, silly, leaning into the theme & not caring that we look like fools, had the best time!! We sat in the front row of our section & I was gifted a flower by The Yellow Knight. Macie was chosen to be the Queen of the Tournament by our knight too & she felt so special. It was such a fun night together as a family.
