Broncho Cheer Wins Regionals, Makes History
I’ve started to think of my website as a little journal for myself, versus a place I particularly plan to share with others. I forget about it so often, then will find myself wanting to sit down and put together a post about something I want to remember. Well, our varsity cheerleaders winning Regional for the first time ever is certainly one of those things. On November 19th, 2023, our team of 15 won the Small Varsity Coed Game Day division at UCA Regionals. It was held at Hamilton Southeastern HS and we took home a score of 88.2. The Game Day division consists of four judged sections, all worth…

Mitten Memories: Fall Break Dump 2023
We had the best little getaway in Michigan last week. Lake had the honor of being the ring bearer in Keegan and Sabrina’s wedding. He did SUCH a good job and was sooooooo excited to wear his tux. Roan and Lake both danced the night away at the reception! We got to Petoskey a little early, so we ventured out to a light house and Lake was very interested in learning about buoys. We spent one night in Mackinaw City and another in Charlevoix, before heading over to Mackinac Island for a quick visit on our last day. Roan was obsessed with the “Neigh Neighs” on the island and both…

Momma and Me Matching Style
Roan and I are in our matching era and I hope it never ends! I loved matching Roany in our Ivy City Co. dresses last week. We had the pleasure of attending a wedding (where Lake served as ring bearer!) and these pretty dresses were perfect. PLUS these beauties are now on Final Sale so they are majorly discounted! Women’s ran TTS, but we sized down on Roan’s; it ran large. See links to both dresses below.

Roan’s Prime Time Diner
Every trip to Disney World, we eat at the 50’s Prime Time Cafe in Hollywood Studios. The restaurant is a replica of a classic 50’s home, complete with Formica countertops, milkshakes, and your cousin or uncle serving as your waiter or waitress. Your server will instruct you to keep your elbows off the table and you’ll enjoy comfort food while watching 50’s clips on the black and white tv’s. I thought it would be fun to pay homage to our traditional food stop at the most magical place on earth (and to us) but with our own spin on it, so Roan’s second birthday party theme was “Roan’s Prime Time…
