Cheerleader - Yay for Courtney!




I am not sure how many of you know, but Courtney made cheerleading this past May. She worked really hard in Gymnastics and decided that this is what she wanted, to be a cheerleader while in high school. If you know Courtney you will know that anything she puts her mind to, she does it! That kid does not quit - I am glad for that. Anyway, the day she tried out we all knew she made it. And so she did! Here in St. George when you made the team, they show up at the girls home, blind fold and take them away along with the other girls who made it, it is so cute. When they rang our doorbell, I started screaming and jumping and of course in tears just out of excitement for Courtney and man I was bursting with pride. So, anyway she is now a cheerleader for the 2009-2010 school year at Snow Canyon High School. Unfortunately, I didn't take pictures of the day they came and got her but here is a photo of her with the other girls who made the team. So for mom, that means early morning practices, fundraisers, taxiing girls around, meetings and traveling to diffrent schools for games, yay!

Roots from Jamaica!

Cheryl was born in Kingston, Jamaica. My roots are very deep from the island. Although, I spent most of my teen years in New York and am an american now, I still hold dear to those deep roots. The culture on raising kids, education, life, love, family and food. Mi luv mi mango!
Did you know that Jamaica has over 15 different species of mangoes? Mango is known as the fruit of the tropics. Mangoes are used in a variety of ways in the Caribbean. Green mangoes are used in hot sauces and condiments, while ripe mangoes appear in desserts and candies and in drinks. The best varieties of mangoes are the Bambay, East Indian, St. Julian and Hayden.
Jamaica also have over 20 different species of fruits!
