Emma had junior bowling league in the morning. She is so consistent. It's so cute. She bowled 84 and 70 on her games. She still uses the bumpers for now; but when she gets a little stronger, she won't ever need them. She barely uses them now, though.
Dear Saturday afternoon,
I was a nervous wreck all day because Dancing with Our Hometown Stars was in the evening. We had rehearsal on the stage at about 3:15, then a friend came over and fixed our hair. I didn't get a photo of us together with our fancy hair because we were both so nervous and rushed and frantic. I'm kicking myself for that.
Dear Saturday evening,
Show time! Below is a picture a friend of mine who was in the audience took at the beginning of our dance.
Our dance went pretty well, even though we both felt we messed up a few times. Other people didn't seem to notice. The three judges gave us scores of 8, 8, and 8. Let's just say Kim and I felt those were less than adequate scores.
Anyway, we figured we wouldn't win anything; but it turned out that we won the People's Choice award! Pretty sure both our jaws dropped to the floor when that was announced. Although we didn't feel it was our best effort (the last two run-throughs before the show had been perfect, of course), we had a blast together. Plus our kids got to play together several times and had so much fun. Fast friends. And that's more important than any award or score.
Dear Sunday,
Our praise team from church is singing at a benefit for Manna Mission next weekend. We had rehearsal after church. I think we're going to be great. I know it will be a lot of fun. I really enjoy getting to sing with my family: Chris's aunts and one of his uncles. Plus Chris plays bass. It's almost a family band. The drummer, Dave, is the only non-Heacock family member. But he lives next door to Chris's aunt and uncle, so he's basically family, too. Good times.
Dear fantasy football,
Can't I win just ONE time?
