More Recital Pics

Can't forget the audience.




Cousin Sammy tolerated the recital and was greatful for the 2 sweaty peanut M&M's Alli was willing to share with him. Alli wanted to dance with her sister so bad so I told her she could dance on the stage after the program was over if she could sit and be good. She was VERY good so she got to dance! And dance she did!

Dance Recital

Corynn had a dance recital last Friday. The theme was "Every Girl Can Be a Princess".
She did really well and it was a lot of fun to watch.




I couldn't find a very good spot to take pictures of her 2nd dance so I have the lovely sound equipment in them.

Heard Around The House

Sometimes I hear some pretty funny things from my kids during the week.

Corynn: "Mom Audra's feet smell like Cheetos"

Allison: "What the Hecks?"

Corynn: "Dad I'm going to give you a finacial notice!" (not sure what that means)

Allison to me: "Honey, you o.k.?"

Allison 2 inches away from my ear:(at 6:00 am loud, raspy, whisper voice)"Mom I want faffles, peeease!"

Corynn: "Mom, you should ground me from school today, I can't wake up!"

Allison at least 5 times a day, at any given moment:(at the top of her very, very loud lungs) "No more bunkeys(monkeys) jumpin' da bed!"

Corynn: "Mom, you're not going to want to hear this, but, Alli's writing on herself with the markers!"

Sweet Sister Love

I often find Corynn and Audra this way. Corynn is always telling me that "Audra is the best thing to happen to our family" and wants to be near her all the time. Now if I could just get Corynn and Allison to act like this!
