I am going to give this a quick recap on the time I have been gone.....
DS12 won 4 state titles plus Gameday National title and Youth Nationals title.....he has six rings now.....crazy.
He won his teams most valuable pitcher award and coaches award.
His team was 101-13 last year and finished ranked 19 in one set of national rankings and 26 in another and, for a northern team, it doesn't get much better than that! They won 15 "major" tourneys last year alone.
His football team lost in the Super Bowl two years in a row after winning the title the year before.
His basketball team won almost ninety games while losing about 25-30....winning many tourneys along the way.
He also has just finished another trimester with All A's in school; having never done anything else.
He also won the district's 5th grade spelling bee last year in one of the biggest districts in the state!

DD is still playing soccer and doing very well having one several tourneys/leagues since I last posted here. She actually had a game today and won 4-1 with a goal and two assists.
She is also working hard in basketball now; playing 5th grade travel ball this season as a third grader. She takes extra technical skill training for both sports and is really improving rapidly.
She does not get letter grades yet but has been doing very well in school and is now part of an extra enrichment program for excelling students.
She has also decided that when she gets better leg strength, she wants to attempt to be a place kicker in football.
That is a brief synopsis and for those of you that read my posts here previously, that should bring you close to up to speed lol.
I have gone through here and caught myself up along with those of you I was still following on FB.
Always fun to see/hear how the younglings are doing!
Peace be with you....
For those of you who haven't seen my FaceBook posts, Gabe and his team won the SC AAAAA state basketball championship again this year! David and I were fortunate to attend the game last Friday night at Colonial Life Arena in Columbia, SC. I ordered several copies of the Spartanburg SC newspaper yesterday and can't wait to see them, but I think this photo of Gabe was featured on the sports page:
And if anyone would like to see highlights of the game, here's a link: Dorman vs Irmo 5A State Championship Game
It's great to be the grandmother of a two-time state champion!
