The kids had the odyssey of the mind tournament on Saturday! They did a GREAT job!!!! I could not have been prouder of them! They came in 23rd place out of 43 teams for the food court problem. In their bracket they came in 10th out of 14. Not too bad for our first year!
The tournament was at Wingate University so we stayed in a hotel Friday night. Me, 2 other Moms and 5 kids, I am surprised we survived! We took the kids out to dinner at Golden Corral they loved it! Then practiced a lot! We had to get up at 5:45 AM to get to the college by 7:30 to check in ... we didn't get to sleep until after midnight and of course the kids kept waking me up. It was rough but worth it!
We had a dress rehearsal last week. Of course I made a cake ... LOL
I put all of the characters that the kids were playing on the cake, carrot, banana judge, peanut, chocolate bar, skittle, pumpkin and pea. The kids LOVED it! They wanted to eat their character!
Now that it is over I don't know what to do with my Monday's and Wednesdays! We spent 7 months working on this ... it was strange to not have a practice to go to last night....
Kayla's basketball team is #1 in the A bracket! They go to the championship game this Saturday!! She is soooo excited! I really hope they win. I am glad she was able to play her first year on a winning team! They are having a party tomorrow, and yes I am making a basketball cake!
Softball starts in 2 weeks. So at least we get a small break .... I better enjoy it while it lasts!
