Lego League

Wow, where do I start?! If you don't know, my brother's Lego league time won the state competition and last week we were at the international competition! It was such a neat experience. On Wednesday, I got to leave school early to catch our flight. By 8 we were in Atlanta! Our hotel room was on the 41st floor with an amazing view! The elavator just shot you up so your stomach would take a second to catch up! They ended up in the middle of the pack placement wise, which we think is good considering there were 84 teams and 31 countries. We also went to the Aquariam which wasn't as great as they made is sound. On the last day after closing ceremonies, we went to the Coco-Cola factory. That was our favorite! Today I will do some of the pictures off of my camera (Not the best ones) and tomorrow I will do one of the other cameras.

Where Have I been?

I haven't blogged in a long time. I have been extremely busy! I have track practice every night and I had my first meet on Tuesday. On Wednesday we leave for Atlanta for my brother's lego league competition! I am really excited. It is going to be a lot of fun and I get to miss 2 1/2 days of school! I have nothing else to post about at the moment. It seems like good posts all come at once then for awile there seems to be NO inspiration! Anyway I will stop ramabling! Just thought I would check in!

Legos are now OK!!

I so meant to do this last night but I was babysitting. Yesterday was Jack's state Lego League competition. They did good but nothing exciting. If you have never been to a state Lego League competition there are 70 teams (with up to 10 kids on a team ), most teams have at least 2 coaches, and all of the kids family.... equals too many people in a small space. We are guessing over 750 people. You can get awards for you robot run. You program the robot to do the missions. You can get a award for your teamwork, and your team presentation. We were in closing ceremony and the team had not gotten any awards at all. This was going to be the first year the team didn't get an award. Then they said and the over all winners is.... @(*#&$(#! Oh my Goodness! They one state! We were shocked! So now the team is going to Atlanta, Georgia for the world competition! We can't wait! Of coarse the one year I stayed home to babysit this happens! I get this text from my dad and all it said was We won. Now Georgia! If you were in the same county as me you would have heard me scream! I think Legos are ok now!

Favorite Foto Friday

I hope everyone had a good week and has a great weekend! This is a picture of my friend, Maddison at the lego league comp. in January.

School's Out!

Today was the end of the Quarter and Semester so we got out of school early so that teachers could work on our grades! It has been a very busy week working on Semester tests for some advanced classes. All we did in school today was go to an assembly, first and second period, and we had a locker clean out! My locker was not messy so I didn't have to do anything there! Tomorrow is my brother, Jack's first Lego league competition. I WILL have pictures for that! I am hoping that where the competition is held there is wireless internet!
