Hudson is in the last few weeks of his Middle School career at Maple View. He has registered for his High School classes and attended 'Future Freshman' night to get tours of the school and learn more about the schools programs, clubs, etc. It's so hard to believe that our baby Hudson will be in high school this Fall. He will be taking two AP classes (history & english) as well as running on the XC team.
Hudson has turned a corner a bit in taking initiative to stay on top of his grades the back half of this year and is leaning into missing assignments by reaching out to the teacher proactively which is GREAT to see. He has all A's with one or two B's so he really is doing well. We're just pushing for all A's.
Hudson wrapped up his year with Valor soccer (year round) and also did a little 2 week XC team through the school. He really enjoys running and likes to go over to his school track and run time trials. Beckett enjoys doing it with him which is super cute. He even took nana/papa and Aaron over there when they were recently here staying with the boys. He's trying to get faster than a 5.45 mile. He will spend the Summer training whenever possible by doing trail runs each day in preparation for meets in the Fall.
We did several fun activities over the Fall/Winter:
- Traveling: Seaside, Twisp (Tripod), Hawaii, Scottsdale
- Activities: Skiing @ Mt Baker, XC mini season
This year for his birthday we opted for a quiet evening at home. He started the day with a birthday breakfast cereal of Crunchberries and then we went out for sushi for dinner that evening after playing a family game of HORSE. He opened his presents and ate cake (lemon with white frosting). He got a nice chunk of $ from Nana Nan, Nana, Gma, and us which will help him save for that Apple Watch he wants.
