1. Won a soccer game
2. Took first in a dance competition
3. Got asked to our first date/school dance/prom
Overall I would say it was a pretty positive weekend for The Circus.
Tayler's soccer game did not come with a side order of rain, though it did come with gusty cold wind and a dog being chased by a dog catcher through the middle of the field. Nice dog. Poor dog catcher. Didn't phase the players... too much.
Brynn started taking dance this year, and we are wrapping up the season with her performances. The first was a dance competition over the weekend where her team took a first place ranking. I was grinning like a fool at her beauty, and dying a little inside at how grown up she's becoming.
I took the recording with my phone, which wasn't liking the lighting situation on stage so it didn't get super clear.
She's still beautiful.
On Saturday night, midnight to be exact (okay, 11:40 to be exact), there was a loud knock on our door. The Man and I stumbled downstairs, half asleep, wondering what in the world was going on. One peak out the window and I knew.
Our lawn was glowing, and I mean literally glowing. It had been covered by glow sticks. On our porch was a sign.
The Man grumbled, "Tell Max he's in trouble for waking me up" and went back upstairs. I went downstairs to wake Cas up. This wasn't something that could wait until morning; she needed to see the glow.
Since she was heading back to her dad's house for two weeks on Sunday, we needed a quick turn around answer to give back before she left.
She baked a large cupcake, filled the center with frosting, and slipped in a note that read: "It would be sweet to go to prom with you."
We don't do anything small at our house, apparently. Her first date, her first dance, hey, let's make it a prom.
She is also getting too grown up.
