1st Pep Rally

C is the short one in the middle wearing ALL WHITE!!!!!!

Can you spot him??

Standing with his pee-wee football team

Last week, C's pee-wee football team was invited to attend the local school's kick-off pep rally. All of the park ball teams walked out in front of the football stands and threw candy. They followed the varsity cheerleaders onto the football field and were joined by all of the other park ball teams, the local JV and varsity football teams, the band, and JV and pee-wee cheerleaders. They released balloons and cheered for the local varsity team. He was SOOOO excited and proud to be on the "Big" field. He is the youngest on his team. Everybody else is 5 and 6 yrs. old. He is also the smallest. I can't wait for his first game. It will be hysterical.

Dance "Recycle"

M and Z in black at their dance recital (or recycle as Z likes to call it)

M was very serious about it

Their 2 teachers are standing in front and this is their whole class

Very proud little ballerinas

Brother is very proud of them too!!

The girls took a 6 week dance class that was held one day a week for one hour each week. It included 30 minutes of ballet and 30 minutes of tap. They LOVED it!!! They kept everything so secretive from me b/c they wanted to show off at their final class (or recital as we called it). M really picked up on all of the foot movements but not the hand movements of ballet. Z had all of the hand movements down but not the foot movements. They both did really well at tap and loved the LOUD tap shoes.

They will start another dance class this week at a dance studio closer to our house that will be structured just like the class above. While they do this, C is playing pee-wee football. I will post pictures of him later.
