AB Honor Roll

Sierra received AB Honor Roll for the 5th Six Weeks. We have passed our Reading TAKS and received commended on our Math TAKS. WAY TO GO!!! Lets just say a prayer one more TAKS test to go coming up this week and that is her Science. She is a little nervous because if they do not pass their Science TAKS they do not get to take their electives next year but I know she will do good.

LOST BUT SHALL OVERCOME BY GOD'S GRACE

Today is a tough day for my family. My daughter's grandmother passed away this morning. We will truly miss her with all our hearts but we will treasure the wonderful memories we will have of her. I am glad to ever have the chance of meeting a person like her and I will never forget many things I learned from her as a woman and a mother and just as a person. I am glad my child had as much time as she had with her teaching her how to cook tortilla (homemade), etc. and working on her spanish. Of course anyone who knows Sierra knows how much time she spent with Ms. Palacios. We know she was hurting and as much as we loved her we know God loved her more and it was time for his child to come home to him. I know he never gives you more than you can bare so we will make it and time heals wounds. We will go on but we will never forget such a wonderful person as Petra Palacios.

EASTER DAY

Thank the Lord for this day he has risen! Easter Day was wonderful. My mom came down for the weekend which is always nice. We went to church with my grandmother and afterwards went to my grandmothers for our family feast. If anyone knows our family you know we had more food than ever and we of course had to fight over my grandmother's sock-it-to-me cake but she made two this year so we were all ok. Thank goodness the rain came while we were in the church service so by the time we got home the sun was ok and it ended up being a very pretty day. It is just nice to get together and just enjoy our family. I am very thankful for the family I have!

VOLLEYBALL SEASON

Ok so we are now playing Volleyball which I do not know where that idea came from but Sierra is enjoying it so far they have only had two games. The first day was a bust they were horrible but the second weekend they did wonderful they won the first two games 25-21;25-22 then tied the third game so they are improving as the weeks go on. She has a couple of girls from Orchard and Wallis on her team which we all know that is VOLLEYBALL COUNTRY they are good. So as soon as I take some pics I will post. I will keep you updated on the season.
