The Princess and the Pea

The Prince

Ah Theatre, what a lovely way to spend an evening. Sunday was again our chance to engulf ourselves in a little culture. It was the last show and a terrific one to end the season. We look forward to the next time we will again loose ourselves in the performances.

The King and Queen, how royal.
As Cinderella would say, Good Times, Good Times!

Helicopters and Bird Nests

Remember these?

The girls love playing with helicopters or whirly birds as they can be known.

Amazing how these little things fly and twirl.

After playing with the helicopters for a while, Pink Dog decided that she would make a nest with all the twigs and leaves, (debris), from the yard. She was very concentrated on what she was building.

I think they did a great job! I love their imaginations and I love these girls!

Theatre Again!

We are very fortunate to live in a City that has lots of talent. This afternoon we went to a local High School Theatre production of Footloose. These talented young people make me smile.

Here the girls are getting the directors autograph.

This is the lead male, who by the way was quite wonderful!

This is my precious Goddaughter. She is a senior now and will be heading off to Auburn in the fall. I can't believe how fast time goes. I remember taking her to the Civic Center to see Beauty and the Beast when she was about 3. Isn't she beautiful!

Here is Pink Dog waiting for the show to begin.

Here is the infamous Aunt B...the one with whom Mommy shared the potty and the Mom to my beautiful Goddaughter.

My three girls with the director.

This guy was fabulous!!!

This young, talented lady played the female lead. The girls just loved her.

Just look at these beauties...I am so blessed!

Uncle Cha has the girls tonight. He is taking them to the Ladies Roller Derby match. What! I know, kinda strange, but my girls are becoming quite worldly. I'm just happy that they are getting the chance to experience so many different things in their lives.

Dance Class

This is Cinderella's second year of dance and Pink Dog's fourth. I think that they are both incredibly talented, of course I could be a bit bias - ha!

Once a year the dance studio allows the parents in to view the children and take pictures and film. Fortunately, the girls parent nights were on different days, so I was able to see all of both of their classes. It was fun to see how far they have come. Their recital will be this June. It is always a very exciting and exhausting time.

Cinderella's find
It was a really good Easter morning. The bunny came, the church service was holy, eggs were hunted, and number one...He is Risen!

Jesus Christ is Risen Today!

What a glorious day. God is so good and we are blessed. I am so grateful for Pink Dog. This girl is destined to Heaven. Thanks to her I was able to share Holy Week with MY Daughter. She made sure that we made it to Holy Thursday and Good Friday services at our church. This is the first time since becoming a Mom that I have been able to attend. With two small children, it is very difficult to make late evening services, but she and I made it this year. It was what I had dreamed about all those years ago when Pink Dog was just a dream. Just me and my girl praising God at the Holiest time of the year. Hopefully in a year or two I will have both of my blessings attending with me. I am so very blessed!
