Dance--Dance--Dance

I love Dance Recitals! It always seems like each year by the end--I am ready to give up dancing and all the hassles. Then....they have the recital and I realize how much I love watching them dance. Chloe was definately the cutest cowgirl--she did a dance to Woody's round-up from Toy Story
Cami's tap dance was to Walkin' on Sunshine and she had so much energy--it was a perfect song for her to dance to!

Carlee's dance class is getting really good and their dances are getting harder. It was great to watch! Her tap dance was fifties.

I opted out of pictures this year and just took them at home in the backyard--I know I am cheap (or I like to refer to it as frugal!!) Cami had to do this pose in her jazz dance

Carlee's ballet was beautiful! It was a whole production number to Beauty and the Beast (the theme of the recital was Disney)

Carlee and her best friend Ashley getting ready for opening number.

Cami and Chloe ready for the stage...red lipstick, mascara, and great smiles!

Sometimes it's nice to have big families--more people to cheer and yell your name!

Summer's here!

I am so glad summer is here and no strict schedules to follow! The kids were anxious to start swimming even though us adults (aka...old people) thought the water was a little chilly!

Carlee, Cami and Chloe showing us they didn't forget how to do tricks over the winter (what winter Arizona has)

Cami has no fear--(I'm a little worried!)

I can also do this trick--but I thought I'd let her have the spotlight!

Clay makin' sure there's water below--and Chloe anxious to try it next!

Our first family Bar-B-Que of the summer and those brave enough to get in the picture
