Dancing Queen

Well here is our dancing queen. Alexis dances at her daycare with a program called Kinderdance. This is their "end of the year demonstration". They are all so cute and have so much fun on stage...

Lights seem to be a little brighter this year....

"Mommy? Where are you? I can't see you!" Of course after she said it, everyone starts looking around to see where Mommy is..."Yes dear, I'm the woman on the floor, in the aisle with the camera!"

Gotta make sure everyone is still out there.... "Oh, Hi Corey!!!"

They seemed to really like the next dance...



Now onto Tap....



"Mommy, where's Daddy?"
(Neal had to leave with Andrea, cause she was getting fussy)
"Just do your dance sweetheart"





And getting her trophy.....





One performance down and one to go!

On a photography note; I'm really not happy with the quality of the pictures I got. Now saying that, I know it is because the quality of lens I'm using. BUT for the next recital I am renting a 70-200mm 2.8 IS lens, so I am so excited to see how those come out. If it so happens that I fall in love with this lens, I may have to sell the TV to fund it :) Anyone in the market for a used TV? SHHH!!!!

First Dip!

Ok, so we have a a long day today. Alexis has her year-end demonstration for Kinderdance this afternoon. Pics of that come later. So we all decide to get in the pool, which happens to be Andrea's first dip in the pool. She is our cautious child and was not thrilled about a huge pool of water! But she settled down after a few minutes and started laughing at her big sister jumping off the ladder.

I will post some pictures of our dancing queen when we get back!

Pool is on its way up!

Yay!!! Summer is here and the pool is going up. Thanks to my wonderful cousins, we have sand to fill in the yard and the pad for our small "ring" pool. The kids and I played on the patio while Neal, my Mom, my Brother, and his girlfriend brought the sand in the backyard.

And finally the hose is in!!!.......

The great thing about summer with a small pool is the evenings after playing in the pool all day.....

Both kids were asleep by 7:30! The house was so quiet, it was just strange. (But peaceful)
