RMHS HERE WE COME!

Hi Bethany, Bethany here.  Remember holding that little crying baby so many years ago thinking you were never going to make it through the baby years to age 5?  Ha.  Now that baby is going into HIGH SCHOOL.  Yeah.

Lily Grace absolutely rocked her Junior High years and is on her way to Red Mountain High School as a Freshman!

This young woman is THRIVING.  She absolutely loves school, performing, reading, and writing.  She won the Outstanding 8th Grade Honors Student award and is looking forward to journalism, debate, and so many opportunities in High School.

Lily made the High School Choir along with several of her other friends.  While she will miss the Show Choir days, I know this new experience will be amazing for her.

This lady is one cool young woman full of heart, hope, intelligence, a deep faith, and dreams.  And she can write.  Something tells me you will be able to read plenty of books by this incomparable woman in the future. 

AND I CANNOT WAIT!

Welcome to High School Lily!  RMHS!!!
 

So Long Elementary

She did it!  Evie Frances made it through elementary school and we are officially on to Junior High. I don't feel sad that we are all done with the young years, but I did have a moment of presence about the reality of growing up.  Those years DO go by fast......so fast and the transition from kid to young woman is here.  This is Evie.........

Evie has moved into that beautiful stage of personal ownership.  She loves make up and skin care, has ideas about fashion and opinions about everything.  She is the best friend you could have and makes new ones wherever she goes.  I don't thing a day goes by that she doesn't ask for a playdate.

This kid LOVES animals and her puppy still ranks up at the top of the love list.  Gracie and Evie are two peas in a pod.  Im so thankful because Gracie is like a big emotional support animal when feelings get big.

Evie loves riding horses, playing with friends, gymnastics, singing, doing Tic Tok videos with her friends, playing Roblox.  As she moves in to Junior High the sky is the limit for where she is headed.  This kid is gonna find her niche and be unstoppable.  Im excited.

Looking forward to watching her thrive! And extra excited to have another kid in Advanced Show Choir.  Can't wait to see her light up the stage!

 

Showdown in the Desert

Lily's 8th Grade year can be summed up in 2 words, SHOW CHOIR!  This program has meant everything to this kid and she SHINES on stage.

The show choir got to compete in the Showdown in the Desert and absolutely crushed it.  They were so incredible that they snagged the first place spot for their division.

It has been nothing but a good time watching these incredible kids perform! ROCK OF AGES took it all!

 

Evie and Cowboy

Since Memaws house is so far away, Evie got the opportunity to ride and do ranching with the 7XL Ranch.  The ranch is run by my cousin's wife Charity, and man, this woman is amazing.  She takes kids of all types and teaches them to ranch, ride, and rope cattle. Evie LOVES IT. 

Evie's favorite ride is Cowboy.  Cowboy has a special place in our hearts because he belonged to Pete Lewis who was a great man in our family and passed away this year.  Evie loves riding Cowboy and I am excited for next season at the 7XL for her!

 

Emotional Support Dogs

Puppy dogs because they are the best.  February brought a whole lot of sickness and ick in our family.  These two held down the emotional support front for all of us!
