Another Milestone

Awaiting the big ceremony

So serious but I assure you have is very excited! 

Boys we will be boys.

6th grade graduation!  Wow, how time has flown by.  It seems like just yesterday when I brought my little guy to kindergarten! He is now ready for 7th grade and middle school.  It seems so unreal.  He is a hard worker and we are so proud of all that he has accomplished!  

Awards and Recitals

Jazz dance rehearsal!
Things are busy around here, but we are having fun!

Graham and Claire both were excited to win awards at the school awards ceremony. 
 Tessa was most amused watching the jazz dance rehearsal.  She had her very own 2 year old dance version.  We are getting ready for the official 6th grade graduation tonight and dance recital this weekend.  Yay!

Profound thoughts....

‎"Do not think that love in order to be genuine has to be 


extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired. 


Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your 


strength lies." -Mother Teresa

Thank you Graham for blowing up all of the floats and Tessa's pool.

Sheer joy!

We got a late start this year due to the tornadoes, but none the less, we are thrilled to be back in the pool!

Ballet Recital in the making!

a girl simply needs bobby pins to be a ballerina even if they are blond

Note that little sister had to be 'dressed' in costume as well.

We have been going to rehearse several times a week for the upcoming performance of Raymonda!  Hopefully I will get some more pictures.  Have a great weekend!
