So, I'm really good at not blogging. I've once again gone 15 months, and it will be impossible to update that much time. I'll at least give a brief history in the life of each kid! Then, I will try to do better from here on out (famous last words).
 |
| Tripp started sixth grade at MCMS. While I was extremely nervous about it going in, it's been okay. The first few weeks were a definite adjustment. It took time for him to learn how to self-regulate, study, remember assignments, and just get in the swing of things. But, he figured it out. |
 |
| Fall baseball went really, really well. The team really came together and proved what we all know- they are a force to be reckoned with when they put their minds to it. We won several tournaments and picked up a new player. We are anxious for spring ball to start back up! |
 |
| Tripp ran cross country for MCMS and had an amazing season. He was one of two sixth graders chosen to run in the state meet, and he did well. He was also picked to run in regionals in Jekyl Island, so that was a fun experience for him. |
 |
| We now have a drummer in the house! As one of his electives, Tripp is in the band. For several weeks, he had to try out different instruments as the teacher watched to figure out what the best fit for him was. We were all surprised when he was chosen for percussion. That is not an instrument that is given out lightly, so we were really impressed when he was chosen to play, and he is doing an outstanding job. He has a solo in his band concert next week. |

| The older Tripp gets, the more his love of designing and architecture comes out. He has always loved to design, but for one of his classes last semester, he chose to design and build a dog house. He and Joey spent hours working on it, and the finished product turned out fabulous. |
 |
| This boy is about to get braces! |
 |
He is getting more grown looking by the day.
So, there you have it. Tripp at a glance. A super short glance. From here on out- I'll do better! Next up! Makinley!
