USA Women’s Olympic Hockey Gold!

It was a blast watching Team USA win gold, especially after Brooklyn met two of the players at a hockey clinic last summer!!!! Brianna Decker and Alex Rigsby!!! B did drills with them, heard them speak and got their autographs!!!!

Dream Role, 2nd Year

Brooklyn performed in "Dream Role" for the second time this year. It's a night of Broadway hits at UW-Fox Valley. She was in two numbers—"Honey, Honey" and "Walking on Sunshine." She loved making her bio board! And she loved being on stage!!!!

The Crossover Support Crew

Time for Food and Photos!!

Crazy how fast 5 years flew by!!!!

Crossover

Jeff presented Tyler with his amazing plaque and Tyler crossed over to representatives from his new Boy Scout Troop.

Arrow of Light/Crossover to Boy Scouts

Jeff made a slide show of the past 5 years of Cub Scouts to watch as everyone entered. The color guard started the ceremony. Parents joined the boys on stage. Then the younger scouts painted various color stripes on their faces as the candles were lit.

Sick Day

Tyler stayed home sick and made himself comfy to catch up on his Westward Expansion research paper!!!!

Powder Puff Derby

Brooklyn won 2nd place in the Brownie division and went to the championship race where she was 2nd place overall!!!! Nice work, B and Dad!!!!

Tyler Swims the 1000 yd. Free!!

Coach John pushed the juniors and seniors to try a new distance event. Tyler gave the 1000 a whirl and did great!!! His time was double his 500 time plus only 14 seconds. He kept exactly the pace he wanted to! He was in the last heat of the evening and most of the team was gone, so the grandparents were recruited to time!! They did great too!
