My little ballerina :)

We started some classes at the Community center by our house! Gracie was excited but a little nervous to start a ballet class when Mommy and Sissy leave. It is good practice for preschool that starts in 4 months!!! I felt weird dropping her off... wondered the whole time if she "needed" her Mommy! sigh....

I invited one of her little friends to join thinking it would make the class more fun and less scary... they have a blast together and the little sister's love playing on the playground while they dance! 

Gracelyn and Allie are four months apart 

and Ella and Sienna are 2 months apart so all four girls have a lot of fun when they are together! 

After they finished we had a picnic at the park right outside... another time they came over for lunch and to play! 

Gracie knows that she gets to see Allie on Mondays at Ballet and I LOVE it! 

So thankful for the opportunity to enroll her in a class where she can learn to follow direction and even more blessed she has a sweet friend to dance with :)

I am going to be an AUNTIE ... again :)

My sister Alyssa and her hubby are expecting again!!!! My sweet niece Emmers is going to be a

BIG SISTER!!!!! 

We are so so excited and couldn't feel more blessed at this time! Gracie thinks she is having a baby boy and his name should be "Gold" hey! In a family of musical talent... a name like Gold Golden just might work ;)

LOVE YOU LYSSA!!!!!!!

A fun day at the ZOO!

We sure LOVE our Zoo membership! We try to go once a month last time we went I let the girls FINALLY go to the petting Zoo... they had a blast!! I am afraid it may be the new "must do" while there!

 We met up with some dear friends of mine... Gracie has grown up with her friends and it is so fun to see them getting along and giggling!!

Trying to decide on where to go first!

The crew!

They LOVE holding hands... silly kiddos!

Ella LOVED the "goaps"

She was VERY serious about putting her hand IN the brush like sissy!

We had to much fun! Can't wait to go back again! We have a free guest pass so if anyone wants to join us just let us know :)

Our Easter in photos!!

Water fun and Nana's birthday!

 We pulled out our awesome water table that we got last year for Gracie! This year is much more fun since Ella can now join in on the excitement! She LOVED splashing and getting soaking wet... but doesn't love it so much when Sissy is the one making her all wet!

We celebrated my Momma's birthday the other day at the park! We had a wonderful time unloading the car and setting things up while the boys played football until the wind attacked us! The food was blowing away, the presents were falling over... and Briella HATES the wind... don't really know why... but she was a little monster ahhh going crazy! We finally decided to go back to my parent's house and finish the party (more like start it) there! 

Happy Birthday Nana!

Emma almost flew away!!!

After a great time of food, laughs, presents, desserts (umm 6 different ones YUM) cousin fun, naps and some tv we said our goodbyes and headed home. Briella was happy since the wind calmed down... so she went out to mow the lawn ;)

We LOVE our backyard and the green green grass!! I am sure there will be many more pictures of us enjoying this season together!!
