Dancing Queen!

Extracurricular activities have now begun for our little beans! Ben "played" street hockey all winter, whenever we went into the garage he grabbed a hockey stick and ball! He wasn't in any organized activities this year but always had fun running around during Julia's dance and soccer.
Julia loved her tap & ballet class this year, especially when she got to put on make-up for her recital and dance pictures! Her dance technique is a work in progress but oh can our girl twirl!

We put her in Sportball Soccer and it was great, they did so many different activities with the kids and had them running the whole time! This coming fall will be busy with dance, swimming, skating and gymnastics!

Super save!

During the finale of the dance recital she kept standing up looking for us! Once she found us she was a jack-in-the-box popping up and down waving at us! It was hilarious!

'Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile!"

Bring a friend to class day! Julia and Michelle met at preschool this year and adore each other so they brought each other to their dance classes. Ms. Adrianne and Miss Tori were her dance teachers for her Happy Feet class. 

Baby Paxton!

We are so excited for the arrival of Gillian & PJ's little boy Paxton in March! Jill was a great mommy before she even had him, her love for my kids is so amazing! And Julia absolutely adores her best friend Jill! Often out of no where Julia will ask to visit Jill, she is one great "auntie!"

 A couple days before Paxton's arrival!

 Belly Bump!

 First snuggles with such a teeny boy!

 

Summer fun with their little buddy!

Stage Coach Festival

Pat, Jen, Brett and I went to the Stage Coach Festival at the end of April…without kids! It was great to spend some time with my hubby & sister and have uninterupted conversations! The concerts were awesome, the festival grounds were huge and we had a fabulous time!

How do I keep my hands off him??!!

Palm Springs 2014

The kids and I went to Palm Springs for a very quick trip in March! It was wonderful to spend time with Graggy & Papa and to escape the never ending winter! Unfortunately the kids both picked up a stomach bug which really put a damper on our 4 day trip! It did however force us to really relax!
