DANCE COMPETITION

This post is about a week and a half late, but better late than never. Our girls had another dance competition, and this time it was at Clearfield High School in Utah. This was a new one for us and I think our girls had a lot of fun. I was very impressed. And see those trophies?!! Those were only a few of what they brought home. They did AWESOME and we have so much fun watching them. Way to go girls!

(Theses girls that Madi are swimming with are some friends from the dance team that were in the same hotel that we were.)

EASTER WEEKEND......

We had a FUN and crazy weekend. Saturday morning started at about 6:30 with a big wrestling tournament at Madison High School. (The kids have to be there at 7:30 to start weighing in.) It was a lot of fun. This is such an intense sport. Wyatt did so good. The first kid he wrestled he pinned in less than 30 seconds.

He wrestled hard. We started at 9:30 and because he was wrestling so well, we didn't get done til 12:00. In these first two pictures you can see him going after the other kid and taking them down. (I didn't get very many pictures because I was too busy watching him.) He took third place in his division. Way to go buddy!! He is SOOOOO proud of this medal.

Then Sunday we went to church. They just put me in the nurserey as the singing lady, and this past Sunday was my first day. Well, kind of, I mainly just went in there to see how they do it, but I took Oakleigh with me. She is not old enough to be in there yet, but she sits right up there with the other kids for snacks, and then during the lesson and singing time they put the chairs in a circle and she sat right in there with the other kids. (Made me a little sad to think in Sept. she will be old enough to be in there.)

After church we went over to my mom and dad's for a YUMMY dinner and then Bryan and Steve hid some eggs and treats and the kids had a little Easter Egg hunt. It was so cute to see Oakliegh out there picking up the eggs and the treats.

She has started getting a little brave and letting go of things and taking a few steps. She is such a sweetie and at such a fun stage. I am so excited for summer to take her out and play. Hopefully she is walking by then. She is just kind of taking her sweet little time!!:)

A WEEKEND IN LOGAN!!

We had a nother dance competition this past weekend. This time we were in Logan, Utah. We had a lot of fun. This was a pretty tough competition for the girls. But they worked hard and finished strong. The first pics are of their first dance, Do Your Thing.

And these last couple of pics are from their show routine. The show is where every group on the team does a dance in their group and then they all come out in the end and do a finale together. The theme was "When I Grow Up." They had ballerinas, rock stars, nurses, millionaires, moms, and scientists. Madi was a nurse. It was WAY CUTE!!

We spent a little time in the swimming pool. Which my kids absolutely LOVE!! Has anyone seen the movie "Big Daddy"? Remember Scuba Steve? Well, this is my Scuba Steve!! He is a little fish and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE'S the water!! :)

Madi and her friend Bailey from dance. They are good friends and love hanging out together. We LOVE Bailey. She is such a sweet heart and is so nice to everyone.

Oakleigh doesn't love the water as much as Madi and Wyatt. It takes her a minute to get used to it. But once she is in and has something to play with she does pretty good.

Scuba Steve and his buddy Maxster!! Max is Bailey's brother. We love Max too. Actually, we love all of the Palmer's.

And this is my "Little Piggy"!! We stopped at the Olive Garden for dinner Sunday on our way home. She wasn't too hungry. But she had a lot of fun playing!
