Proud Mommy!!

Well Madison had her band solos/ensemble competition last week and I am so proud to report she recieved 1+ 's in each of her solos and in her ensemble!!! She plays percussion and was recenlty moved up to the Middle School Band to perform when a slot became open. She plays the snare and mallets and has been first chair most of the year... SO proud!! She is enjoying band and I can see her continueing through high school!
Not sure if you can see, but Madison got some kickin' highlights too in her hair!! I'll try to take a better picture of it and post soon!

Here she is with her 3 medals:



Then I have been a bit Jillibean Soup happy this month and wanted to share a few fun projects with you all... first up in a layout that just talks about how proud I am of Madison making goals for herself this year and reaching them.
*the green letter stickers match the rest of the green in the layout, but for the life of me I couldn't get the colors right in my photo*


**OUT FOR PUBLICATION**

Next up just some fun cards I made with the Jillibean Soup goodness!

I spent the day shopping with the girls yesterday to get some new clothes for myself for New York!! Did I mention I am GOING... oh I'm excited!!!
It is so hard to buy things for myself its crazy... I keep thinking 'but I could get this for so and so'... etc.... thankfully the girls were firm and I walked away with some goodies for myself!

Thanks for stopping by.... I am off to Abilene for a trip to the ortho for Madi!!

Have a great day!!
