Girls Camp!

We've been missing Audrey as she has been off at Girls Camp since Monday. Parker leaves for Philmont tomorrow, so they won't see each other for three weeks!

Seminary Ends!

These two have achieved hero status in my book. They were Audrey's early morning seminary teachers this year. Audrey was in the 6:00 am class at the Marshall Ridge Clubhouse this year, and her teachers, Sister Darcy Whatcott and Brother Ben Judd, are serious troopers. 

Audrey Finishes Tenth Grade

Audrey received an award for her achievements in her German II class, another for performing 100 hours of service, and had her beautiful art displayed at City Hall.

Band Banquet

Audrey's cute friends, Aleah and Nikel, are in marching band and they have a big, fancy banquet at the end of the school year. They spend the night at the Great Wolf Lodge and party! They were cute to invite Madie and Audrey to join them! They had a great time!

Spring Sports

Audrey has been running track this year at school. She started having track meets in January and has been running the 200 meters! Miles is back on the Rangers this season.

Audrey's birthday!

We had fun with Audrey and her friends in Fort Worth for her sixteenth birthday. We started out the evening at Ephemera on West Magnolia, where we made custom mini terrariums. Then we walked down the road to Brewed for dinner, and slowly made our way up to Melt for dessert. Such a fun crew!

In our ward, around the girls' birthdays, everyone fills a chalkboard with their compliments and favorite things about the birthday girl! This was Audrey's board. :)

Audrey's Art

Audrey's art teacher is always sure that her students enter their art into as many local and international contests as possible. Her pieces have won some awards here and there, which is always fun! These first few are from 2014/2015.

Audrey's Birthday

Birthdays just aren't as exciting as they used to be! Audrey turned 14 on a pretty normal old Wednesday. School, DI, Young Women, the usual! But she is anything but usual. We love this girl so much and enjoy seeing her blossom into young adulthood! 

Friends ordered her cinnamon sticks after school.

The boringest (but yummy) birthday cake ever!

Regional DI Competition for Audrey

Audrey's DI Team, Pokem in DI, competed over the weekend at the regional, Mid-Cities Tournament. They did a great job! They were only up against one other team, but that team was made up of four  senior boys. These girls rocked it and took first place!

  

Right before the performance!

Last-minute adjustments to Fluffy, their creature in the Creature Feature challenge. They chose the technical challenge this year: 

- Build a creature that uses technical methods to perform team-chosen actions.

- Present a story of adventure with the creature as a character.

- Use technical methods to demonstrate features of a world where the story is set.

- Create and present two Team Choice Elements that show off the team’s interests, skills, areas of

strength, and talents.

During the performance.

Waiting for the awards ceremony to begin!

First Place! Going to State!

Ice cream to celebrate!
