Birthdays

A little late on some posts...

Madison turned 14 at the end of January. Hard to believe my first born will be in High School in the fall. She is still my little girl who was so tiny when she was born...



Dalton turned 12 in April. Even harder to believe that he will be in seventh grade and starting Junior High. Don't tell anyone, but he is still my baby!!



I won't tell how old I turned on my birthday, but I did have fun. A friend and I went to Nashville for my birthday weekend in April. It was the weekend before the flood hit!!

Power of the Pen Regional & State Competition

The eighth grade POP team all qualified for Regional competition. They won the first place team event!!! So the eighth grade team brought first place home to JAJHS for Districts and Regionals. YAY!



Three of the students qualifed for State competition held at the College of Wooster in May. Only 10% of the original 7000 students make it to State competition. None of girls placed at State, but it was still a thrill for them to be there...and a thrill for their parents!
