ballet recital






wow- how amazing our little lulu did- we could not have been prouder, is that a word??? so proud, so very proud.
her teacher asked lulu if she wanted to be the 'line leader" and everyone in her class could fallow her- espicially in the skipping part.
i was nervous, so nervous and then she came out and it started, "oh you beautiful doll..." and she did amazing- she even saw me in the second row and waves. I was a very proud mama- did I mention that?? it was the best feeling- she took off skipping when she was sopposed to and NOT one person fallowed for a good 15-20 seconds!! It was killing me, but she pulled it off and was great! Brett and I were beaming.


There's our little line leader being put in her spot!

we love hanging out


this back step has been a place to hang out ever since we moved here.
linden called it "the popcicle step" since she was able to talk and now Thatch sits and enjoys his pops there too.
i love that a step so small can sometimes fit 4 people, 6 giggling girls, or maybe just a shared moment between these two.
personally i like the step when it's dark, the kids are in bed and it turns into a "margarita step" or a "wine step"....ahhh- the simple things!
