We've Got Spirit!

School is in full swing for everyone. The girls are hard at work studying and cheering. I welcomed new students on Tuesday and have a great class. We are going to have a great year!

Olivia tried out for cheerleading and is on Varsity again this year. The squad finally has a coach, after waiting to hear all summer the school hired a coach the Friday prior to the start of school. Then they had to have try outs and begin practices, so they have yet to cheer at a football game. After missing three games they will finally cheer at "the big game" against our rival East Chapel Hill next Friday. GOOOOOOOOOOOOO TIGERS!

We've got spirit, yes we do! The first Smith Middle School football was a winner! Smith shut out Stanback with a 26 to 0 score and the cheerleaders were wonderful!


Captain Lyndsey had fun cheering for the team and inspiring the spectators in the stands. GO CYCLONES!

For Labor Day weekend we spent time in Virginia. Brad's parents joined us and we celebrated both Brad's birthday on the 4th and had an early celebration for his dad's 70th birthday on September 16. Brad went early and had Friday with his parents while the girls and I played a trick and arrived earlier then they thought on Friday evening to surprise Brad for his birthday. When we got to the house no one was there so Lyndsey set to work and made brownies for Brad and sugar free Jello for Pop Pop. Brad was surprised!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Mamie had a cheesecake for Pop for his celebration on Sunday. After cake we watched his present; a DVD of converted 1960's home movies. It was fun to see Mamie and Pop and all Brad's family from "back in the day". Mamie and Pop Pop haven't changed much!!!
