Showbiz Show




















This is Taylor performing with her Showbiz group.  They did a medley of dance routines for songs such as; U Can't Touch This, Ice Ice Baby, Mr. Roboto, Cotton-eye Joe and she had a solo for N'SYNC's Bye-Bye-Bye:)  She was in Showbiz last year and liked it but she LOVED it this year and it showed by how much stage presence she had this year.  She even did a solo which she would not have done last year.  Everyday after Showbiz practice, she would come home and do the dance for us and then teach her sisters the routine.  It was a great show and many thanks to the Bromleys and group leaders for all their time and effort:)

Taylor graduates to middle school

Hard to believe that my oldest is leaving the "eagle's nest" and going off to middle school.  She's is so ready to go but I am having a hard time wrapping my brain around the fact that I have a child old enough to be out of elementary school.

Addi was lucky enough to loop with her 1st grade teacher last year and have her again for a combo 1/2 grade class.  Mrs. DeMichiel or (M. De Michelle) as Addi likes to call her, has been a wonderful influence in Addi's life.  Our family has loved having her as a teacher for two years and are hoping that Avery will get her for first grade in the fall.  Mrs. DeMichiel is having a baby boy in November and I have offered to watch the little bundle for her when she returns to teaching in January:)  I'm a sucker for little ones and this way I finally get my boy without going through 9 months of sciatica, varicose veins, cravings, muscle cramps, mood swings, etc.

Last day of school

Avery is hugging her Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Erickson.  They had a little graduation ceremony on the last day of school.  Mrs. Erickson always commented on how cute Avery was and how she was small but mighty:)  On to first grade, it is hard to believe that my baby is getting so big:(
