Freshman B-Ball @ Mt Ogden Jr. High (Ogden High)

It was a great game tonight at Mt Ogden Junior High! We WON!!!

Prepping for Region

The Girlzies head to Region Competition this Saturday, and they've been preparing hard for it. To help motivate them, one of the fun things I get to do is locker decorations. They turned out so cute. I found a Tahitian dictionary online and found a few Tahitian words to help "inspire" the Girlzies.

MOEOROU = to be possessed of a strong desire after some good.

FETUARURU = a war term, implying to act with union and strength.

NANUNANU = (my favorite) the substance in the nose of an infant. I used this one like, "If you get fear from competition, think of them as nanunanu and you fear no more!"

Girlzies 2nd Competition - Murray HS

Wow, what a difficult day for us spectators. 12 hours sitting and watching a bazillion drill teams show their routines. But it's all worth it. LOVE watching our Girlzies. And they did a great job!

The Girlzies did great, placing 2nd in Military and 4th in Tahitian. Awesome job, Ladies!!! Love you ALL!

Freshmen B-Ball vs. Grantsville

Grantsville is a tuff team. We played hard, but not quite hard enough. :(

These pix are of Garet's steal... Take a peek...

Garet really hustled tonight! It was good to see him step-up his game!

Freshmen B-Ball vs. Bear River

Great game against Bear River tonight - we won!!! The kids played hard! So fun to watch!

Garet got the rebound & took off down the court!

And he's undeterred - even when the kid is twice his weight!

LOVE taking pix of the kids gathered around the coach!!!

Senior Girlzies

As evidenced by my blog, I LOVE to take pix. I really have NO idea what I'm doing, but I do have fun. I am 'just a mom with a camera', but every now & then I do get awesome pix!!! Well, the Seniors on the drill team asked me if I could take some action pix that they could submit for the year book. Yikes!!! Of course I said yes with the disclaimer that they may not turn out... The girls are SUPER talented & I had a great time with them! I just hope the pix are what they want!!! Oh, & I've come to realize that I prefer taking portraits - the action shots were tricky. The girls jumped a bazillion times & Amanda even had to count so I could capture it correctly! Thanks, Ladies!

Freshman B-Ball vs. Ben Lomond

It felt good to win this game. This is actually Highland Junior High that traveled with the HS team because Freshmen don't attend High School in Weber County. We started out strong, lost our lead by half time. BUT KICKED BUTT in the 2nd half. Good job, boys!!!

This shot was crazy. Garet noticed the kid attempting to block it, so he launched it sky high and the sucker went in!!! YAY!!! We were all so excited!!

Love the boys gathered around Coach Preece!

And he passes it!

Good game, boys!!! Fun to see you play tonight!!!
