Mini Dance Camp

Caroline went to the "Stowaway's mini dance camp" this morning. The Stowaways are Granbury High School's drill team. She said she had a great time, but was also glad her friend Katie was there.



If you watch closely at the end of this song Caroline gets run over by her friend and falls down. I think they were supposed to all run off the floor but Caroline's friend ran before Caroline did. Her friend was so sweet to pick her up and help her walk to the side of the gym though!




Elizabeth was watching her big sister very intently. She would also start dancing when they played music. So sweet!


Eli was just happy to be there. He talked but no dancing for him.

Lost, Cold, and Dirt!

Update: Caroline was so excited she got to write her name on the board today at school.... because she lost her tooth. It is a priviledge to write your name on the board (didn't used to be when I was little). Today was a big day for Caroline!!! She was line leader at school today (she has talked about being line leader since the first day of school) and she lost her 3rd tooth when she got home!! This week has been wonderful!!!! We have had colder mornings. The other morning it was 55 degrees outside so we went in search of some jackets... unfortunately Greg only found Elizabeth's!





Last Saturday we went to a "dirt" birthday party! Our friend Mr. Cooper turned 3!! We were so excited to get to celebrate with him and his "dirty" cupcakes...


and dirt pit...


dirty playground...


and finally the wet dirt (also known as mud). Elizabeth thought it would be fun to eat the mud, since she liked the dirt so well earlier in the morning.

Caroline also enjoyed the mud. She made a mud bottle.I am not sure what else she did but she looks like she is wearing mud socks!


No dirt party is complete without ...


The hose down!!!

Sweetness & Laughs!

The kids had some fun times playing yesterday. I dont remember what happened or if Eli just needed some extra loving, but this is the sweetest picture of Caroline loving on Eli and him just relaxing against her. Elizabeth was trying to get on the lion while Caroline was loving on Eli. Eli posed for a sweet picture for me yesterday. Doesn't he have the sweetest smile?

This is Elizabeth's smile. She was not really wanting to give us her best smile, just a little one.
The girls still like to dance, even if they are not wearing their tutu's. All I have to do is put some music on and they both start twirling. It is the cutest thing!

Caroline found a fun activity for her brother and sister and they all loved it. There was lots of giggling and laughing and BIG smiles!
