Dance Dance Dance!


Lilia has been bitten by the jitter bug! She's a dancer! This weekend was her 1st recital and she was amazing. Of course the 3yr old class is mostly known for their unpredictable steps and adorable smiles (or frowns). They all danced to the beat of their own drummer but the audience couldn't have loved them more. She said she didn't want to dance in the recital the morning of the dress rehearsal but once up there she had no problem. She was a little overwhelmed by it all so the audience didn't get much of her attention the first time but she danced on the stage 3x and got better with each. She also loved watching all the bigger girls dance (and the occasional boy). She wanted to sit and enjoy the show each time. The bigger kids were all so sweet with her and wanted to meet her.


I teach Modern Dance at the studio and these are some a few of my students before they enter the stage for "Bee Boy". They were amazing!

She called all the girls in her class, my friend.



Was very excited to receive her "1 year" award pin after the show.


Lilia loves her teachers Miss Leslie and Miss Sarah!


After my recitals as a kid we always went to the Main Event Ice Cream Shop by us to celebrate!
So of course we did it again!
Lilia wanted blue ice cream to match her dress.Way to go, Lilia Sue! You're my shining STAR!

Our Cute Kids

I document our year as a family through photographs. My kiddos are so cute its easy to take lots!
Max's 1st Star Wars Shirt. a gift from Daddy

this silly hat I made for both kids in an attempt at making a furry bear hat. the ears are lost somewhere on there. but somehow she's so cute she makes it work.
I think Daddy's heart just melted when Lily asked to play games with Daddy.
Ready for church to begin
"I hope they call me on a mission, when I have a grown a foot or two!"
Just the sweetest thing ever!
this almost brings a tear to my eye,
my pretty princess ballerina!
showing off her moves...
she loves it!

Our family motto is "We are a happy family." and I must tell you we aren't rich, we aren't famous, and we aren't entirely independent yet. but one thing we are is happy!

Lily starts dance!

Leslie's Dance Studio is where I teach dance. I took dance from Leslie as a child and she's a close family friend. I'm so happy Lily is starting dance class!
She is happy too! She was unsure at first and a little frightened but by the end she was hugging Miss Sarah!
She played around the room after class a little when I came to pick her up. She'll be learning ballet and tap.

All that dancing wore her out. I wonder is she dreaming of Broadway and the Nutcracker?? I know its silly, but I'm so proud of her dancing like me!
