Darling daughter made Varsity Cheer this year. She’s a sophomore. The Cheer Booster Club was selling this year’s sports yard signs as one of the fundraisers. We were so excited to get the new yard sign for K. The only thing she didn’t quite like about it was size of the printed name. This year’s style has the athletes’ name printed a bit small. 🙂 She liked last year’s look better. Anyway, she’s still happy with it.
The yard sign arrived just in time for the first Friday Night Lights football home game. It’s so nice to have something to showcase the school spirit at home. Go Braves!
Last week was one of the busiest time we had. With darling daughter in varsity cheer this year, she got more commitments at school. Cheer practices after school everyday and helping out with fundraising events including the Denim and Dazzle Event where they’d help the registrants bling their denims for the Homecoming week. The cheer department was also assigned in decorating the hallways for the week-long spirit celebration. It looked awesome when they were done.
At the Homecoming Game Night, the Homecoming Court was introduced and the King and Queen were crowned that evening as well. Our team played a great game against the Azle Hornets until the end. It was a fun night!
This year, my darling daughter tried a new sport. She’s playing volleyball this Spring. I am so delighted that she got interested in playing volleyball. You know volleyball is one of the great team sports there is. It’s also my personal favorite so it gladdened me that K finally wanted to try playing volleyball. We were both relieved that we still had the pair of volleyball knee pads that one of her friends gave her last year. They’re very useful in this sport.
So I gladly registered her in the Spring Volleyball League this year in the 8th Grade team. When I saw the roster, I was happy that there were players she knew from her classes. This was the very first time my daughter is playing team volleyball so it’s quite exciting for her. She felt very happy that she got her jersey number this time which is #13. (She was upset that someone got it first in basketball last year).
Volleyball practice twice a week.
After all the practice t-shirts and jersey fittings and their distributions, the practice begun and the games started in March. The first match was against another school’s 8th Grade team. Didn’t get the win but it was a great game. Our girls got challenged to do better.

Playoffs and championship games are in May. Go Braves!
This is to thank everyone who donated to my darling daughter’s middles school fundraiser. We were able to fill the Pick A Date To Donate Calendar and gathered the desired funds for this school year’s cheer season. We appreciate each and everyone of you who were very generous and supportive. Thank you all so much for a very successful fundraiser! It is going to be an awesome season. Please wish us the best of luck.
