Ella lyrical dance..


Published with Blogger-droid v1.7.4



I taped this at Ella's rehearsal class yesterday. It's Halloween week, so some of the girls are already in costume and couldn't do their full movements... I normally don't post practice, but Ella had such a great candy hold this week. (where she holds her leg above her head and stands) that I was really proud of her. She's been working on this and her balance. It's coming along well. She's the blond with a white tank, blue shorts, and puppy dog pig tails. Enjoy!

Photo challenge day 4 something green...

Man have I sucked at this! I've taken some photos... but we've been crazy busy and sick and I just haven't had a second to blog. I'm finally shoving in a quick post while the kids are outside with Troy who is mowing...

This is the beautiful violet in my kitchen window. It weighs about 5 pounds and is almost a foot across. It was given to my by my dear former neighbor Dorothy. She was like my adopted grandma.. we both had little dogs named Brandy and shared a duplex back in my single days. Dorothy died in the spring before Troy and I were married. Every year when this beautiful violet blooms and grows I feel a little bit of her wonderful spirit!
