Basketball against SLJH

The BDJH girls basketball team played against SLJH tonight. I love that the cheerleaders are cheering for the girls' teams. Not only for the principle, but because I know a lot more of the players. They are friends, former team mates, and classmates with Lexi. Some of the boys are too, but of course the girls are more. They cheered for the B team tonight, which Kacy (#40) is on (along with others).

We went early to watch Avery and Brady from church on the C Team. They lost by one point. Our B team won by 3 points. We stayed for the A team to watch Lexi's friend, Heather from SLJH. Our A team won by a lot. We have one insanely good player, Justice. She is 6'2" and incredible. Her mother was on the WMBA.

Not Playing at the SLJH Game

Tonight was the biggest game of the season in volleyball. The top 2 teams played. Sadly, Lexi and the girl that she rotates in with were hurt. A broken arm and a sprained foot knocked them both out for the rest of the season. The team just wasn't the same without them. They lost.

Morton Ranch Game

They played Morton Ranch Junior High tonight, which is across town. It was raining when we arrived, but would pass. Before the game started, the cheerleaders practiced on the sidelines. They had a little accident and Ava was dropped. Lexi was one of her bases. She said when they lifted her, she didn't go up with them. To make matters worse, the other base did not let go of her foot so she twisted back and landed on her spotter, Mia. Both of them ended up banged up and crying before the game started. They snapped out of it though and went on to do the stunt perfectly during half time.

Half Time

Woodlands Elite Practice

On Wednesday, the cheer team goes to Woodlands Elite to be coached by professionals. Lexi's friend, Isabel, who is on the 8th grade team, walks home from school with her and I drive them both to practice. We get there a few minutes early and they like to mess around. Sometimes they do gymnastics. I'm not sure what they were doing here. I'm sure they had fun though. 

Cheering with the 8th Graders

The 7th and 8th graders were combined this evening to cheer for the 8th grade football team. They were using the pink pom poms and bows to honor breast cancer this month. I could only stay until the 3rd quarter started because I had to rush Jordan off to Scouts. I took a few photos. Fortunately, one of the moms loves to take pictures and share with us all. 

Football Against Beck Jr High

BDJH played Beck Junior High this evening. The team cheered for the B team, which won. They were losing almost the entire game - 6 to 0. Beck made a touch down and the field goal looked good, but they didn't get the extra point, so I am not sure why. In the last few minutes, BDJH scored a touchdown and made the field goal. The girls had lots to cheer about.

Being a cheer mom is kind of distracting. The girls do lots of cheers and I always stop watching the game to watch them. They keep us entertained.
