Family Comes to Visit

 

Student of the Quarter and Character Strong Award

Mr. E was selected out of his whole grade at the Middle School Assembly for showing amazing 'Character Strong' traits!

And Miss E was chosen as Student of the Quarter for 7th Grade!  It was a great day for both Holland kids! 

Guest speaker RaeLyn Davis

November 7th, the day we will never forget. . . The day that everything changed. . . the day that our carefree life would never be the same . . . the day that E was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, days after his third birthday. I remember spending five days in the hospital with him where it took three nurses and ourselves holding him down to do his blood sugar checks and insulin shots. We've come a long way where he is almost completely independent with his diabetic needs and is rocking his diagnosis. I'm proud of him for never letting things get him down! Coincidently, today on his diabetic anniversary he was able to meet country music star RaeLyn Davis (also a Type 1) who came to the school to share her story of rising above anything life throws at you, including diabetes! Pretty cool to meet someone famous that's just like him!

Happy Halloween 2019

Pumpkin Carving

 We learned our lesson after 12 years of carving pumpkins and got small pumpkins this year!  They were able to do most of the carving themselves and had a great time doing it!

Fall Band Concert

Miss E had her Fall Band concert the other night.  It's so much fun seeing her musical talents take off!

State XC

The CC girls took 11th out of 46 schools in Class B Cross County and Miss E took 2nd for Central Cass with a time of 22:34. 👏🏻 So proud of all them for finishing strong in very challenging conditions! It was a great season full of learning and growth. We are so thankful for her awesome teammates and coaches, fostering the love of running and encouraging her every step of the way!

Regional XC

Miss E ran at the regional XC meet in Cooperstown and placed third on her team. . . which solidified her spot on the state team. Thanks to all her family and friends who were able to make it to Cooperstown to cheer her on yesterday in her first-ever varsity race! Fun to see her improve throughout the season and getting stronger and stronger! I love this sport and this girl!!!

Movie Night

This little sweetie's favorite thing is MOVIE NIGHT!!!  I captured this picture of her all bundled up ready for the show to start!  Too cute!

XC Night Out

Miss E and her team headed into the Olive Garden before Regional Cross Country.  They were instructed to dress up. I can't believe how fast this girl is grown up!
