Nutcracker Performance

On December 26, Nikelle was able to perform in the Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker. It was a great experience to dance with amazing ballerinas from Russia. She danced in the "French" piece. Brooke's current teacher and Nikelle's former 2nd grade teacher, Ms. Willis came to the performance.

Tribe Banquet

We attended the annual Texas Tribe Awards Banquet in December. This year it was a family thing, with Braxton playing football, Travis coaching, and all three girls cheerleading. Brax is holding his MVP award, the girls have their cheer trophies. Our team was favored to win the city championship, but had a disappointing semi-final loss. A little taste of life for those hard-working 11-year old boys!

Braxton was learning to drive in Mexico. He is only 11,
but it is a lot easier to break the law down in MX!
