little photographer

Avery has taken up a new hobby. Here are a few of her pictures.

Pinewood Derby!

So at church we had a pinewood derby for anyone. No rules! I was asked to build a car for the woman's organization. They told me they wanted it girly. Here she is! This is before we put the wheels on her. I thought she wouldn't be very fast after all pumps are not usually designed for speed. Much to everyone's surprise she took 2nd place!

Track meet

Thad went to the Pearland district track meet for the softball throw. He got fourth in the district. This is his second year to represent his elementary school in the meet.

Baritone

Brax started the school year playing the trumpet in his 6th grade band. In March his band teacher suggested that he try a new instrument. He tried out the baritone and it seemed to be a perfect match! He had to learn a couple of new skills but caught on very quickly! He just found out that he made the honors band for 7th grade playing the euphonium. (It is similar to the baritone only it has 4 valves instead of 3) He is the only 7th grader who was selected for honors band for this instrument! GO BRAX!!!!!
