!The Cutest Little Tap Dancer!

June 13, 2009

Recital Time!

Kylie has been taking dance at Devney's Dance Academy for 10 months. She is in a 3-4 yr old combo class where she gets to learn both tap and ballet. She has made some new friends and really enjoys herself.

I am very proud of her and love to watch her dance.

The bunches of pictures are proof.

Here is Kylie in her dance costume.

They danced to "Put on a Happy Face", it was so cute.

Kylie getting ready.

Lots and lots of hairspray!

Driving to the recital.

She hasn't even danced yet and she's already tired.

She woke up immediately as we arrived at the school where she was performing.

The girls in her class.

Cosette, Elea, Madison, Kylie, Sailor, and Berkley

The Four Amigos!

On stage.

I didn't get a good picture during her individual class performance but I snapped this one during the finale.

Your a Star!

Mommy and Daddy are so PROUD!

Best Buds.

Kylie and Madison


Thanks to all who were able to come and support Kylie!

Kylie and Papa Dave

Always a challenge to get these two together to take a picture.

Friends Forever!

Thanks to Nicole, I was able to get together with my old highschool friends. It is always so much fun to reminesce about old times, and chat about our families and future. We are hoping to make this a tradition to get together about every three months or so. Hopefully, we stick to it.

Here are some of our kids, at least those that were still awake.

Brecken, Kylie and Jacey, Canon, and Karsten

Jacey was in the mood to be in front of the camera, so I took advantage and clicked this super cute pic of her.

Memorial Day Weekend

Happy Memorial Day!!

Today, to celebrate, we went over to Brad's house with the rest of the Smith gang for a day of swimming and food.

The girls enjoyed both!

YUMMMY!! WATERMELON!!!

Jacey was head to toe covered in watermelon juice. Nothing like the pool for a bath.

On Saturday, we traveled down to Maricopa to enjoy my Dad's new pool!! We were all so excited to try out the new slide and play on the two bahama steps. The water was a little chilly but it was hot outside, so it didn't keep anyone from enjoying the water.

Kylie just helping keep an eye out on Jacey.

Yeah Kylie! She is becoming an excellent swimmer.

Enjoying the sun!

Here is Kylie getting ready to go down the slide. She was the first grandkid to go down the slide all by herself. She had her boogie board to help keep her up once she hit the water.

The slide is quite the adventure for these little kids. I even got a thrill going down myself.

Just like old times.

Papa Kurt gave all the kids rides all around their backyard.

I remember my grandpa wheeling us around on wheel barrow rides.

Kylie and Brecken getting the ride of their life.

I just thought this picture was so cute. Jacey just hanging out and relaxing, watching a little TV. She has assumed the position of her father. She thinks it is so funny to steal his spot on the couch. She does a pretty good impression of him. :)
