By request, readers have been asking about Ali..."How's Ali, What's Ali been up to? We have had no news of Ali for awhile." So, here is a little catch-up of The Happy Girl. Before the new football stadium here in town opened for the public, there was a nice little tour and here are two fun photos, one of Ali touring and the other of Ali giving a press conference like where TD usually gives his post-game press conference. Too cute...and I can so see Ali giving her own press conferences for something or other in the future. Ali is swimming with Matt in the senior group, singing with him in the IYC choir as she made the move up this year, so we are all thrilled that Ali and Matt are back together in the same choir group again...just not the same with Ali in another group. They will be going to Spain next summer for the eleven day singing tour. Ali's loving school, a sophomore this year, she and Harrison took driver's ed together at the end of the summer, and last night, Ali, Harrison, and Matt (who all go to Catholic high schools) were all invited to Carmel's homecoming dance by the kids on the swim team so they went as a group, Ali looking cute in her black dress and pink headband (can see photos from homecoming post later today). So there's your update on The Happy Girl. She's having a great time living life...and still the sweetest thing going. Life is just a whole lot more fun with Ali around.
