Dance Recital

"Still I Fly"

There' a time in your life
When the world is on your side
You might not feel it
You might not see it
But it surrounds you like a light
Makes you stronger for the fight

Never letting go
Gotta learn to grow
Watch me as I touch the sky
Still I fly
Now I know it's what I gotta do
Find a dream that's new
Give it all I got this time
Still I fly
Still I fly

Feel the wind all around
All the courage to be found
Who knows what's out there
I know I'll get there
Oh off into the sun
I know I'm not the only one that's

Never letting go
Gotta learn to grow
Watch me as I touch the sky
Still I fly
Now I know it's what I gotta do
Find a dream that's new
Give it all I got this time
Still I fly
Still I fly
Still I fly

Breathe it in
I'm gonna shine
It's my moment
Gotta live and live it right
I'm flyin
Flyin so strong

I'm movin'
I'm movin'
I'm movin' on

Never letting go
Gotta learn to grow
Watch me as I touch the sky
Still I fly
Now I know it's what I gotta do
Find a dream that's new
Give it all I got this time
Still I fly
Still I fly

Annabelle's Dance recital was sparkly, frilly and lovely and completely wonderful in every way!

 Her group danced to "Happy" by Pharrell Williams and "Still I Fly" by Spencer Lee.  Those precious girls rocked it!  I looked over the the boys during the recital and they were smiling ear to ear watching their little sister...so proud.

Does Darth Vader roar?  Annabelle thinks so. (Mommy's flippy floppies...on the wrong feet)

Beep Beep! Annabelle's driving a pink Jeep

Annabelle's school had a transportation parade. Kyle and I helped her make her Pink Jeep.

bluebonnets 2015

We went on a hunt to find this new place I had read about that has bluebonnets AND fossils!  We took a short "hike" from our car and turned a corner to a beautiful scene of bluebonnets overlooking a lake.  I got my bluebonnet pictures, Annabelle saw real butterflies, and the boys brought home some fossils...everyone was happy.

Easter

At the Easter Egg hunt this year, Kyle kept disappearing to the balloon animal lady.  He had waited in line and when he got to her he requested a sword.  She made him a sword and he walked off happy.  Then, he suddenly wished he had a scabbard (a thing that goes around your waist to hold the sword). So he went back and asked her to make one but her line was so long she couldn't.  She did blow up a balloon for him to wrap around his waist.  He took that balloon and figured out how to make it into a scabbard.  Soon, Kyle had a line of kids wanting a him to make a scabbard for them!  The balloon lady kindly shared her balloons so he could make them for the other kids.  When we got home, Kyle did extra chores to earn enough money to go buy balloons and a pump.  By bedtime that night he had learned to make a couple more things and he figured out that he could use his nebulizer to blow up his balloons!  I told him if he learned to make at least 3 things little girls would like I'd hire him for Annabelle's birthday party.

Kyle made this sword and shield himself!
