welcome summer!

it only seemed fitting to 

welcome in the summer....

tomorrow is, after all, the first monday morning we don't have to get up for school!  

so a little hosing off after supper 

was in order tonight...

all 3 girls have been taking ballet since the fall.  

this is their first ballet class since al & ek 

took a class when they were 2 

(so that really doesn't count...they didn't even have a recital.  

and let's face it...they were 2!)

so despite their many differences in personality 

and *ahem* gracefulness, they all love it.  

they had their first recital this weekend.  

the theme was cinderella. 

 how perfect.  

and even though it may have been the most 

unorganized disaster of a recital, 

they were beautiful and perfect.  

and some very special people even came out 

and sat through a very long recital to support 

and show love for our sweet girls  

and for them we are so very thankful.  

so here are some pictures from their big day.
