Lydia's Dance Recital

Lydia's Dance Recital

Lindon at 4:00pm

I arrived WAY early to get good seat!! We were on the front row!! Very fun because at one point Lyd looked right at all of us!!  (Josh, Me, Grant, Grandma Gayle, Blake, Trent, Grandma Laura, Grandma Evelyn)

The recital was soooo much fun!!! Watching Lydia up on stage was a treat!!  We were laughing and smiling, it was DARLING!!!!  We wished she could have been in every other number!!  (There were 34, she was in 2!) 

This was her tap dance, "Thoroughly Modern Millie!"

Her ballet dance, "I  Won't Grow Up!"

All the dancers took turn to bow at the end with music playing! They lined up by us on the right of the stage! We got to smile and wave to her!!  (I knew she wanted us, it was a long time to wait during the recital in the cafeteria!) 

Afterward we went to Purple Turtle with Grandma Laura!

Grant wanted a shot of her at home for his I-pod screen saver!!  (He is he cutest kid!)

She got silly!!

Dance pictures!!  

I saw so many smiles from her I was surprised this was the winning photo! Haha!  Sweet little thing!! (This actually shows the attitude she had going to dance each week!!)

Grant's Recital

We were sooooo excited for this recital! Grant had worked so hard! In the parking lot he did his flashcards in 30 seconds!!!  I was thrilled!!!!

Blake's Graduation

It was wonderful!!! The program was adorable!!  They sang "Proud to Be an American" and the part that says "across the plains of Texas," Blake did the cutest smile! We have LOVED Mrs. Calton this year!!  She has been so wonderful for Blake!!  

2nd Sunday/Mother's Day

Celebrated May Birthdays

While in my mom's closet, during a game of Sardine's, we took a quick peek at Tami! (Her doll from her childhood!)  I loved to look at Tami as a child and dress her!! I wanted to see her again! I love her black case too!!

Sweet sweet poem from Trent

"Best Mom Ever"

I have a mom that is wonderful and funny

I have a mom that is loving and caring and hugging

I have a mom that tells me I'm Awesome!

I have a mom that is the best mom on earth

I have the best mom because she cares.

Trent

Blake's First Year LPM Recital!!  We had a hard time getting him dressed, so we said button up shirt was our only requirement!  

Teancum was in a different class but glad we could do the recital together!!

Trent was willing to play his LPM piece at Blake's recital!  Very cool!!
