Talent Show!

Taysa had a class talent show on March 4th. Her and four of her friends; Abi, Taylor, Rylie, and Allysa, did their dance from Jill Searle's dance studio. They had to perform in their homeroom classes and the winners from each class went on to perform at the 5th grade talent show. Taysa and her friends got to perform in two different homeroom's and guess what...they won 1st in both.

March 11th was the 5th grade talent show. They had so much fun and they did a GREAT job. Way to go girls!!!


Evacuate the Dance Floor dancers; Taysa, Abi, Rylie, Allysa, and Taylor!

Here is a video of their GREAT performance. Sorry the video is a little shaky, Cloe kept kicking my legs while I was recording. Taysa is in the blue shirt on the right. It's hard to see her some of the time because I was sitting on the wrong side to be recording it, but it will have to do.

So little!

We were looking through old pictures on our computer today. I decided to post these pictures because I can't believe my girls were ever so little!!!

I can't believe how fast time goes by. It seems like just yesterday we only had one child and now I have three beautiful girls that I simply cannot live without!

My Girls!

I love my girls!!!

Ice Cream faces!!!

My girls love ice cream...I mean they really LOOOOOVVVE ice cream! These faces are pretty normal for our house. When they eat their ice cream they put everything they have into it and enjoy every crumb there is.

Snow Days!

The girls have had a lot of fun this winter with their dad. He has started a new tradition. Whenever they play in the snow he starts a fire so when they get cold they can just warm up by it. He has pulled them around in our backyard on the sled and the tubes so much that I think our snow is too compacted to ever melt. These pictures are over several different sledding days...notice how in some there is very little snow, that's actually Christmas day and then slowly there is more.

The girls have a GREAT time sledding and sitting by the fire with their dad. Notice how I'm nowhere to be found. I like the warmth of my house! :)


Cloe - she likes to play in the snow but doesn't like the sled or tube very much.


Brooklyn - she likes to ride fast and be thrown off the tube.


Taysa - she likes to ride fast but safely.

D.A.R.E.

We all know what D.A.R.E. stands for right?...Drug Abuse Resistance Education. I knew that, but yet I didn't. That is something I learned tonight at Taysa's D.A.R.E. graduation. I also learned during the course of this program at school how dedicated my daughter is to NOT doing drugs. I am so proud of her and how strong she is and will be. She is such a good girl and always wants to do what is right. I love you Taysa and I am very proud of the girl you are.


Taysa waiting to go on stage to graduate...she's the one in the glasses with wavy hair. They had the lights out in the gym and it made for a dark picture.
