Now this one had her 9th birthday celebration at Exit Santa Cruz (a terrible rip-off, don’t do the Glow party!) followed by a sleepover at our house. She invited a pile of people…and so…we decided it was possible our house would get completely trashed if everyone stayed inside, so we pitched our gigantic 2-room tent outside in the backyard, fired up the firepit for s’mores and kept everyone outside! We had theater, dance, and school buddies and it was epic. Everyone just sang and danced outside all night and the following morning!
Besides turning 9, Cameron just resumed comp soccer, reluctantly auditioned for Nutcracker (this year, she actually said she would rather do theater than Nutcracker, but we put the kibosh on a theater production during the school year — plus, volunteering for 2 productions would have just been too much for us parents!), resumed ballet (Ballet 3 this year), and is now trying a new Modern dance class at the Tannery with her good buddy, G.
She is still loving math and is already close to wrapping up the 5th grade math curriculum. This girl is so motivated, it’s inspirational. Her latest goal is to “get fit” (which she already is??!?) so she has her alarm set for 6:45am and she’s been doing the 7-minute workout (Alexa) before breakfast!
