Sydney's Dance Recital

Sydney performed in her 3rd dance recital last night.  She was so excited.  She has asked me all year, "When do I get to dance on the stage?"  I can't believe how much my shy little girl loves to dance in front of people.  Diane has done such a great job teaching her.  She loves to come home and show me her latest and most favorite dance move.  Then she loves to have me try and then tell me how I'm doing it all wrong.  She is such a good little dancer and we are so proud of her.

Our Little Garden

Let me just start off by saying buying a new house is over-rated.  We have spent the last month trying to put in a fence, put up a swingset and sink our trampoline and I think by the time Sydney graduates from high school we should hopefully have it done.  Anyways the flower beds quickly got pushed to next year, which broke Sydney's heart because we've been telling her since last year that she could have her very own garden.  Thanks to wonderful family though we planted a little one last week.  Sherri gave me her leftover flowers and Julie pretty much planted the whole thing because I'm completely clueless when it comes to gardening.  So this is a thanks to Sherri and Julie for making Syd's dreams come true.  She loves the garden.  She wants to water it every couple of hours.  I'm sure the fascination will wear off after a time or two of weeding it.
