Great Cross Country Meet, Final Band Performance!

BrittanyCrossCountry1016Today was a VERY busy day!  Brittany had a cross country meet after school today at Waubonsie High School.  It was for all of the middle schools in the district.  It was very cold (down into the low 40s), but she had her best meet so far this year!  She came in 17th of about 50-60 8th grade girls.  Maybe she runs better when it’s cold outside!  She received a ribbon for her efforts!  🙂  Angela, Kirstyn, and Benjamin went to see her run and cheered her on as she ran in the cold!  🙂  Overall, Still Middle School did GREAT!  The 7th graders, as usual, took 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.  For the 8th graders, Brittany’s friend came in 2nd.

While Brittany was running, Zachary and I went to support Sarah in her final marching band performance at the high school.  Zach and I had layers of jackets and blankets to keep us warm, and we enjoyed the pre-game and halftime shows!  The football team won also which made it great as well!  The starting Quarterback and Sarah’s friend from Seminary got hurt pretty bad during the 3rd quarter and had to come out so that was bad, but overall things went well.  The band sounded GREAT!  They were sad afterward that they were finished and some were in tears.  They have become quite the tight-knit group over the past couple of months!

Great job girls!  You guys are the best!
