Tip Off Dance 2011

Tip Off Dance started at about 1:00pm with Bowling.  The group had a great time!

The original plan was to go to Olive Garden but being so young they forgot that they may need reservations.  So on to plan two...Louie's in Meridian!

Tip Off Dance followed the Girls Basketball Game on Friday night.  Tip Off was girls ask boys and Cody was asked by two different girls.  For his first dance, he was put in a difficult situation but made the right choice and went with the original girl "Olivia" that said she was going to ask him and she did.  Although he was quite upset with how much everything cost even though he didn't buy anything.  I think he had a great time and with a great group of kids!

I had a hard time letting go since as Cody says, "I like to be in control."  And boys go to the girls house to pick up and take pictures so I had to rely on someone else but it all worked out.  Olivia's Mom e-mailed pictures the next day and we even got more off of Facebook.

Since Shelby had a game that night we didn't even see him leave for his first big dance.  Speaking of Shelby, she decided to sit this dance out.  Shelby and Grady came over to the house and had pizza and watched a movie since Grady is still recovering from his surgery (tore his ACL).

I think a fun time was had by all!

Basketball Season Continues

Shelby is nearing the end of her Freshman year of Basketball and it continues to be a great season.  She has made so many improvements within the last year.  One of her best games so far was in Kuna...where she scored 12 points and 7 of them within 2 minutes.  The cameraman (Dave) gets a little busy talking so got a 3 pointer but you can't tell that Shelby was the shooter!  They still have a hard time playing Skyview and have lost to them twice and to Bishop Kelly once.  They will finish up their season playing Mountain Home, Emmett, Bishop Kelly and Nampa!  They have turned into a pretty good team and played beyond expectations!  Then the top 4 teams will go onto Districts.

Go Lady Vikes!

I attempted to upload the video but I don't have the patience for it right now as it is taking forever!

New Years 2010

 

This year after Shelby got finished with Basketball practice we headed up to Garden Valley with The Roseberry Family!  We had very, very cold temps. like -10 degrees on New Years Morning but alot of fun was had by all!  You can see by the clock that making it until midnight was difficult but once the ball fell, we seemed to be able to stay up past 2 o'clock.  Which made for a slow morning on New Years Day...but after Noon we all made it outside for some snow fun!

The Kids enjoy each other so much and since The Hildebrandts were unable to make it, we had Austin come with us!

There were 3 different games going on....The Adults, The Older Teenage Kids and Shelby and Sam!

Shelby and Cody (yes, that is Cody) enjoyed the weekend!

Some snow fun!  Ann and Steve broke out the cross-country skis and Dave even had a lesson!

  

Sledding fun...This video includes Cody, Joe, Austin and Brady!

P.S.  Thanks to Val...for sharing that Piknik is where you make the above cute little pictures (Good thing for Web 2.0 classes :) )  At least I got something done tonight!
