Wrestling

February 7, 2024

As soon as football ended, Maxwell – and a bunch of his buddies – signed up for wrestling. We didn’t quite know what we were getting into but learned a lot. Practices were every day after school and meets were looooong. It ended up not being Maxwell’s thing – but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t good at it! He won several times in his weight class and the coach really encouraged him to sign up again next year. I don’t think that’s going to happen but it was good to give it a try! Some pics from the season…

swing dancing

February 6, 2024

Maxwell did a swing dancing class with other 7th graders a few weeks ago. It was two nights and the parents got to come up and watch at the end of the second night. Maxwell did great!

We had a room full of girls and they all had fun! There was LOTS of bracelet making going 0n (and the bracelets were a HUGE success thanks to GJ’s work organizing words into little bags and pre-cutting elastic!)…
