1st Dance Recital















On December 18th Macie had her first dance recital. She has been so excited for it and practied so hard. She did the dress rehearsal and did the dance so cute. On the night of the performance she was so excited to put on her costume and put on her makeup. We got to the auditorium and she wanted me to come and take her picture while she "posed". Well the recital started and it was soon Macie's turn. My heart was pounding and I was so excited but nervous. Her class came out, the lights came on, the music started and Macie cried! She just stood there crying and rubbing her eyes. I wanted to cry. I think now she wishes she would have done it because she keeps asking me when she will have another performance like this one. So we will keep our fingers crossed! I was still very proud of my little dancer.

All Boy!!


Connor is all boy. This morning after I washed my hair I went in to check on him. There he was putting on his hat and boots with his pajamas. As you can tell by the picture he is always on the go. He loves anything to do with being a boy. He is such a sweetheart.

My little reader




Macie loves books! If I am not reading to her then she is reading to herself or Connor. She loves to play "school" and read to her class. I am so happy she loves books and she is so smart.

Sleeping angel


What is it about a sleeping child that is so precious? Connor hadn't napped all day. We came home from grandmas house and he wanted chocolate milk. I was in making dinner and went to peek at him and this is how I found him. He is such an angelic little man. So of course and ran in and grabbed the camera to get a sweet picture of my precious little boy.

Bubble Baths







My kids love a good bubble bath! They would spend hours in it if I would let them. This time they were having a fun time putting it on their faces and the top of each others head. I couldn't resist posting these precious pics.

Halloween











For halloween Macie wanted to be Ariel the little mermaid. Tyson wanted Connor to be something scary. The best costume we found was a bat. For these pictures Connor would not wear the hood that showed the eyes and teeth of the bat. But the night before he would wear it....just because I didn't try to take a picture! Anyway it was a really fun night. After we got the candy and were walking back to the car thats when Connor would say "trick or treat". Macie had a great time this year. She didn't want to stay and visit at anyones house. She just wanted to keep going to more houses. She ended up with way more candy than she needed! It was a really fun time this year.

Macie's Preschool halloween party











I was able to go to Macie's preschool halloween party. The kids had so much fun. That morning they went to a "haunted house". Then they went to the library to hear a scary story. They came back to the classroom and played pumpkin ball toss, wrap the mummy, decorated twinkies like mummy's and made spiders. I was in charge of the craft so we made the spiders. The kids had a fun time making them. It was so much fun to see Macie at school and how she interacts with her class. She was really excited for me to come and can't wait until I come to the Christmas party.
