A few pre-Easter pictures

Rylie in her school Easter bonnet parade (she was wearing it backwards)....
We had an event at church on Saturday called Arise! I only have pictures of Rylie there because we were broken up into age groups and I was the preschool "Tour Guide" so Gracie was in a different group. Here's Rylie and I playing a Nickelodeon style family game.....

The egg drop from the fire truck.....

Rylie playing one of the games.....
It was a fun day!

Rylie goes skating

Rylie was invited to a skating party for her friend Lily. I didn't think she would have any desire in going but she was practically begging. I decided to take advantage of her being brave and took her. I wasn't so sure she would even put skates on but she did. The kids from her class wouldn't even go in the rink except the birthday girl so we stayed on the outside and learned a little. They still had a ball though.

Rylie and Alea trying it out....


Mommy don't hold my hands anymore....

Rylie and Lily the birthday girl!....

Gracie's 1st Competition

This is back from February but I just didn't have a chance to get all the cd's together and stuff. Gracie's group did great at their very first competition...we are so proud of them!




They are accepting their awards, this was quite funny since they weren't really coached on this part :)
