Recital Video

I wanted to share Kaitlin's recital video. Please excuse the middle when I "zoomed" in way to close - I was too busy paying attention to her! Kaitlin is the 2nd one in front from the left side of the stage. (Remember to turn off music toward the bottom right side)

Easter Egg Masterpiece

I didn't know if the girls would want to color Easter eggs this year but when it was brought up I was surprised at their excitement. So we got the supplies and the girls became quite the artists. I think they had more fun creating little homes for them after they were made than the actual coloring itself.

A Glimpse

I keep saying my girls are growing so fast these pictures show how much my babies are growing up... Cooking Supper - gotta love it!!!

UPDATE

I am finally updating my blog. I have to be honest I didn't know if anyone really checked my blog a lot and so I wasn't sure if I should continue updating. But my sister in law asked me to update and I know how much we all appreciate seeing pictures of their family and getting updates so I will try to do a better job for those who do "check my blog".

So the latest with the girls...

Macie had state assessments for the first year in Reading and Math. We are so proud of how hard she worked. I was a bit concerned because she was so nervous and wanted to do soooo well that it became almost too stressful for her. However, in the end she "exceeded standards" in Reading and made "exemplary" in Math. We couldn't be more proud of her. She has improved so much this year and I can't believe how fast she is growing up. On July 9th my first baby is going to be 9 years old. Where has the time gone? She is looking forward to all the summer events - swimming lessons, basketball camps, and softball. It will be here before we know it.

Kaitlin just finished her 3rd dance recital. I never in a million years believed she would like dance this much. Macie decided she didn't like the tights so much that she decided not to finish dance this year. We let her "be done" at Christmas - before they started recital practice. Kaitlin was so excited for the recital - as you can see in her pictures. Her only complaint is that she only got to perform one dance this year. She is excited for summer dance camp, basketball camps, swimming lessons, and softball. She will be one busy girl this summer!! (I think I will be busy getting them to everything)
