Happy Birthday Gigi!

After Avery's first basketball game we drove down to Comanche to celebrate Gigi's 90th birthday! It was so fun to see our Waggoner family and celebrate this special grandmother and great-grandmother!

The newest basketball star!

Avery just started playing basketball and had her first game on Saturday! She did GREAT! She didn't handle the ball a lot, but she earned the defense star for staying on her man. Before her game I took a picture of her, and then I realized I had taken a picture of Aidan before his very first Upward game exactly five years ago...and the uniform and pose was nearly identical! It was so much fun watching her (and Sage, who is on her team!) and we can't wait for the rest of the season!

New Year's Eve!

We spent a fun New Year's Eve at our neighbors Mark and Ashley's house with a bunch of families from our block! It was so great to just walk across the street and not have to get baby-sitters! The kids wore their pajamas and played outside and upstairs, while the grown-ups chatted, ate tons of food, and played games. Then after the ball dropped we just walked home. Couldn't have been a more perfect way to ring in 2017!
