Volleyball, Driver's Ed, & Report Cards
Mariah made it on the volleyball team! She will be playing for Southwest 16-2's. I can't believe she is that old!! I look forward to watching another fun season of volleyball...
Oh, and Mariah starts Driver's Ed on Monday- I really can't believe she is going to be driving!! She will be able to get her temps after Christmas...
The first quarter of the school year is officially over and the girls did AWESOME! Mariah is taking 3 Accelerated classes and an AP class and had a 4.1667 grade point average. We are so proud of her! Kaylee's report card was great, too! Her reading has advanced by leaps and bounds since 2nd grade...

Philadelphia
I took a trip to Philadelphia for a Breast Cancer Conference. It was great to see the sights and to learn about the advances in breast cancer research and treatment.
I went with a friend from my Young Survivor Group and we had a blast! We saw the Liberty Bell and Independance Hall. We treated ourselves to a really nice steak dinner, too!

What A Week!
Well, we just finished up a very busy week...
Mariah had a sore throat and earache on Monday, so I took her to Urgent Care. They prescribed ibuprophen and popsicles! 2 days later, she was still not feeling better, so I took her to her regular doctor who said that her left tonsil was infected again... she had this same type of infection last December. Her doctor prescribed an antibiotic and we will be going back to see him again on the 16th to see if the antibiotic worked. She is feeling better, so it should be fine. He is probably going to recommend that she see an Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor and possibly have that tonsil(s) removed. She is more than willing to do that so she doesn't get these sore throats anymore!
We finished up the week with Kaylee having a tooth pulled on Thursday. She was very brave- the dentist used Magic and the tooth appeared in the little pink treasure chest! The tooth was a baby tooth and had a cavity. The dentist felt it was better to pull it because it was probably going to be the next one she was going to lose anyway. She is doing great...
This week Justin will be leaving on Wednesday night to go up north for hunting...I have Kaylee's Parent/Teacher Conferences on Thursday night and I leave Friday morning for a Breast Cancer Conference in Philadelphia. It should be fun. I am excited to see Philadelphia! The girls will be staying with Grandma "with Lex" and I am sure they will have a fun weekend, too. I will be back on Sunday afternoon and Mariah has her volleyball tryouts Sunday night! I am already saying my prayers for tryouts... I think I get more stressed out than she does- at least she doesn't show that she is nervous!
We have enjoyed the great fall weather this weekend and hope it wasn't the last of the season!
