Carly is getting such a sense of humor. She thinks some things are so funny! She also thinks that she needs to dance like sissy. It was really funny. She is really cute and talking tons. enjoy the video!

Alexus dancing hard shoe at the talent show

Blake - E- Boy






Today was the last day of school. Blake went to school a little early. They got to have a BBQ and then got to have their own field day with just the kindergarten class. He was not happy about this being the last day of school. He said that he was sad because he wasn't going to see his teacher everyday any more. What cute kid!


Blake graduated from Kindergarten on Friday! He was so stinkin cute. I can't believe how much he has grown this year. He had a great teacher and made some really good friends.

Another Feis

Alexus had another Feis. She had be practicing really hard the last couple of weeks. I was trying to get here to smile when she danced and she would have nothing to do with it. She said that it was to hard to smile and dance at the same time. I gave up.
She wakes up Saturday, a little nervous. Chuck made her whatever she wanted for breakfast and then gave her a blessing. She seemed really happy, but still was NOT going to smile when she danced!
She gets up for her first dance and what do I see on her face???? A SMILE, not a fake one but a real smile. We all laughed. She smiled in all 5 of her dances. You could tell by the smile that she was having fun!
She had 5 different dances to do. 4 of them had anywhere from 8 - 11 girls in each group to dance against. Then the trophy dance had 20 girls in it. She placed in each dance. She got 2 first places and 3 second places. We were shocked that she got 1st place on the trophy dance. We had prepared her for maybe getting nothing. She was really happy and surprised to. I guess she'll be dancing for another year.

Nathan came home!




A couple of weeks ago Nathan came home from France. He brought his girlfriend Clelia home with him. The kids had a great time playing with both of them. Then it was off to travel. She had never been to the west coast. Thanks for the fun you guys!
