This was actually taken in September when Matt & Lisa were here for Caitlin's Birthday.

Grand Champions!!!

This past weekend Caitlin's Stunt Cheer Squad participated in their first competition of the season. They not only took 1st place in their division they also took the grand championship. If you look closely Caitlin is holding the "Trophey Cup" in her left hand. Congratulations girls...!!! (If you double-click on a photo it will come up in a different window...larger. Caitlin is to the far left in the group photo. Use arrows to scroll up or down or right to left to see the entire photo. Then click back to return to the blog.)

The Ring...!!!

The boy done good...!!! It's just what she wanted... He was paying attention! :-)

They're Engaged...!!!

This actually occured in the later part of August...by happenstance it took place at the capitol in Austin...you can ask Matthew about it some time. Unfortunately something was wiggy with the camera...but the moment was still captured!

Sweet Sixteen!!!

So on September 15, 2007 our little girl turned 16... and as afore mentioned it was a really busy crazy day, but everything went off as planned...YAY!!! As her brother before her who was "stringed" at his 16th she had to endure this family tradition...needless to say she was not too happy with us...you know we messed up her hair!!! :-) But she got over it...

Class Act All-Stars

So besides cheering for her high school Caitlin also performs with a stunt cheer team...they compete about once a month and perform locally at basketball games, summer festivals, etc. In April their season will culminate at Nationals in Chicago...The county fair was their first performance of the season. (In the top photo she is front and center on one knee...in the bottom photo she is the furthest to the right basing...can you see how high they throw their flyer...? Imagine practicing that a bunch...Caitlin's getting quite the toned body! :-)

County Fair Cheer-Off...

Every year during our county fair there is a cheer competition. This year 7 schools participated...there are two schools (Bryan & Edgerton) that always vie for 1st place... (Bryan took it this year). Caitlin's School (Hilltop) took 3rd....they were ecstactic!!! The seniors cried.

The cheer-off was on her birthday and her party was that night...what a busy day!!!!! Matt & Lisa had just flown in the day before (into Detroit). This meant Bubby could see her cheer! YAY! And not once, but twice. Her stunt cheer team performed exhibition that day, as well.
