KATELIN'S DANCE


Katelin had her first Dance recital! It was so fun and she looked so Cute! This girl really is a NATURAL. She always loves to dance and so this was the greatest thing having her in Dance lessons. She had so many people come and support her. And I know she really enjoyed all the attention. She is so lucky to have so many people so close that love her! NOW...LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT HER AMAZING TEACHER!! Sister Campbell, teaches the little girls in her ward and her grand-daughters and some others, like Katelin Dance lessons for FREE!! YES FREE!!! Absolutely no charge! The women teaches at our Church several different classes every Monday and Tuesday. This isn't even just a couple girls, I think there was like 35 in the dance recital. WHAT AN AMAZING WOMEN! We can all learn a lesson of selflessness from her... talk about sharing your talents!! I feel so lucky because I just was at the church one day when she was teaching and saw the girls dancing and she asked me if Katelin would like to be in the class! It has been wonderful, Sister Campbell is so good with Katelin and I really appreciate her. Anyway her are some pictures from Katelins Ballerina Debut.

These last couple are just some pictures I took a while ago of Kate in her costume.

Picture update...

So I was thinking that I never hardly post any more and that my blog is really boring, So Here are some things that I have been wanting to post about and haven't FIRST FOR THE REALLY WEIRD...
My little brother came over he got stung by a bee and well he freaked out my kids a little. I am sure with those lips all the girls wanted to kiss him!

Tytan has been running around alot! He is getting to be so fun! He love to play Duck Duck Goose! It is the funniest thing... He will hit you on the head and say DU and then run away and who knows where he is going. But the poor kid... What can I say Tytan has a big head and he bonks it ALOT!

Katelin has been going through a dress up phase! She has wanted to be in princess dresses all the time. In the morning she would put on a princess dress, I would force her to change so we could go to school or anywhere in public, but as soon as we would get home she is in a princess dress again and she would want to sleep in her princess dresses and do everything in a princess dress. Well she just wants to dress up all the time! Crazy kid! One day I said lets go outside and ride your bike, but you have to change your shoes (because she had on high heals) And she said, "but Mom these look Fabulous" She says big words like Fancy Nancy cause she also told me my hair looked "diculous" (ridiculous)So here are some pictures of her in all her costumes...
First, here is a weird thing she dressed up in, But she did dress up in this before it got cold outside!

A Pioneer... she was into this during the roadshow...

She was a princess for her birthday party...

A NAUGHTY PRINCESS! Here She is in time out...

Sleeping Beauty! Ok I just love this one! She really fell to sleep like that, CROWN and all!

Remember the post back when Katelin was dancing on the table! What is the deal with my kids dancing on the table... And what kind of mother takes pictures instead of getting them down!? Don't worry the bumps on Ty's head aren't from him falling from the table!

And here is a picture of Katelin's birthday party, because I meant to post about it, but didn't. We had a princess and knight birthday party with all her cousin's and neighbors. It was really fun we made crowns and had face painting and had treasure hunt.

HALLOWEEN AND KATELIN'S 4TH BIRTHDAY!

HALLOWEEN Was fun! Katelin was Tinkerbell and Tytan was a Dragon. We had our Annual ward Trunk or Treat with Dinner and carnival. The kids got way to much Candy which will probably show up on my butt in a couple weeks, because I like to take their candy when they aren't looking. Anyway the trunk or treat is a really a fun activity, but I wish we didn't have it on Halloween so that I could spend more time with the family. We did seem to make it to all the Grandparents houses, but it was really rushed for time.


(This is what a dragon looks like when his mom won't unwrap his candy.)



Katelin's birthday was a BLAST! Can you believe that Katelin is 4? Yeah crazy! Ty and Katelin and I spent the day doing what Katelin wanted to do... We went to the park and to the library and to Barry's for a "hambooger". We also got to meet a Disney Channel Star! If you watch the Disney channel like Katelin and I do you might know who Sterling Knight is, He is the kid that plays Chad on "Sonny with a Chance" he also is the son on 17 again. Anyway he was at my dad's school so we went and met him and got our picture with him. Katelin was really excited about that, but so was I. You know I love the DISNEY Channel and it is sad to admit, but I find myself watching cheesy Disney channel shows even after Katelin has gone to bed. Clay makes fun of me of coarse! We also went to Pirate Island with Clays family which was really fun. It is the new place up by The University Mall. The kids loved it!

STILL KICKIN'

OK so I know that it has been a long time since I posted anything. I just feel like I have been Super busy! So here is what has been happening...
I got released from Young Women's! Sad, but true! It was definitely an emotional thing for me. I cried all week and that Sunday too, I love the Young Women! They are some of my greatest friends and it is hard to change since I have been in the Young womens most of married life and these young women in particular for the last 4 years! BUT IT HAS BEEN A GOOD RUN!! And although I'm sad it was getting hard since both Clay and I were needed on mutual nights and chasing the kids was a chore!


(Here are some pics of girls camp this year! IT Was GREAT!)
SO now you would think I would have had so much time.... WRONG!! I got made the Cultural Art Specialist! Yeah I know... WHAT IS THAT RIGHT!? Well I was in charge of the ROAD SHOW and the Road Show was just about one month away from the day I got called. NOTHING had been done! Starting from Scratch! I Never done this before nor have I even been in a road show as far as I can remember! Well thanks to some great friends and all the help from my ward we were able to pull one together. It was great! After all the worry and the hard work it really was a blast and if you asked me, ours was the very best, But I am a little biased! Everyone pitched in and did their part and it was a GOOD time! NOT QUITE AN UNCLE CURTIS PRODUCTION, but I think he would liked it!













(This is the 91 year old brother who was a star in the road show! HE is Awesome!)
Anyway now that it is over I can stop neglecting my family and have a normal life! YEAH RIGHT!! NORMAL probably not! So hopefully soon I can post an update of family and what has been happening with them!
