Rec Cheer

November 5, 2026

Samantha did rec cheer this year and had a fun time with her buddies. They were all about the halftime shows! Lots of fun, not very serious, and good practice for real cheer! A win win!

There was only one 6th grade cheer squad so they just cheered for all the teams – but mostly for the Texans. Well, the Texans made it to the Super Bowl so the cheerleaders got to go too!

The Texans played a good game but came up short. The cheerleader’s halftime performance stole the show anyway! Love these cheerleaders!

And that’s a wrap on a great season of ballroom! I think Samantha loved getting dressed up, having dinner in the village with her friends, and even dancing with the boys!

Halloween

November 3, 2026

Having a Saturday Halloween was the most fun – even if we did start the day bright and early with an 8am soccer game! But, we got a W so it was a good start for these soccer stars…

For Halloween night everyone went in different directions. I’m a little sad the days of precious porch pics are over. But, I did manage to snag this one of Spencer and Samantha before they scattered…
