CRAZY WEEKEND.......Day 2

So Saturday, we had a dance competition in Malad. It was a GREAT day!! My girls did AWESOME!!

Our team had a total of 10 dances between the four groups.

The awards were AWESOME!! The girls took home SUPERIOR on all 10 dances. They also took home 5 Judges Choice awards, Best Choreography, Best in Show, and Crowd Pleaser!! Fun fun fun!!

By the time we left Malad it was 7:30, so we stopped at Wingers for dinner. Madi and Morgan were on such a HIGH from the competition that they couldn't stop being silly.

For some odd reason, my girls thought they needed to sit in booster seats. Well......they couldn't get out!! They got their little bums stuck in them!!

These two naughty little girls, who I was NOT claiming at this particular moment in time, told our HORRIBLE waiter that it was their birthday and that they were twins!!! Not sure if he REALLY believed them, but he brought them FREE desert anyway!!

I was feeling bad about it at first, but by the time we were done with dinner, I had decided that maybe it was o.k. Our waiter was AWFULL. The place was DEAD and it still took him 45 minutes to bring us our dinner. I don't know how many times he walked by us before WE finally had to ask HIM to refill our drinks!! Needless to say......I didn't tip him very well!!

CRAZY WEEKEND.....Day 1

It all started Friday night when Madi and Wyatt were in the school play, Peter Pan. Well, Wyatt was actually in the choir, and Madi was in the play. They have been practicing for the last 2 1/2 months. Madi was one of the mermaids.

Because the play was put on by the PTO they asked the students to come up with their own costumes. For those of you who know me, I do not sew, well, not more than a straight line anyway. So.....I have a GREAT friend who is a GREAT sewer and was a HUGE part in the making of this costume. Thanks a TON J'Lene, you are the BEST!!

We got the material at JoAnn fabrics and then J'Lene just measured and sewed, NO pattern!! Didn't she do awesome??!! We got a STILL on the fabric!! I couldn't have bought a costume for as cheap as we made this one!!

The choir was not required to dress up, but could if they wanted. They just had to pick someone from the movie to be. Wyatt wanted to be a pirate. His costume $0. Everything is from home!! He did have an eye patch, but this picture was taken after the play and he was tired of wearing it!!

My kids did AWESOME!! I am so proud of them for all the hard work that they put into this play.

HAPPY EASTER :)

I'm a little late at posting this, but that's o.k. We had a GREAT Easter!! It was very busy. Madi had a dance competition on Saturday so we didn't get to do any Easter Egg hunts that day. But that was fine with me because it was too dang cold and we had snow!! Sunday we spent the day at my mom's watching conference, having dinner and doing and Easter Egg hunt for the kids. The bigger kids didn't care about the weather so they did theirs outside.

The little ones on the other hand, they don't seem to like the cold too much. So the guys hid a bunch of eggs upstairs and the little kids did their hunt inside. We had a few eggs that had money in them and some bubbles. So it was fair and each kid got one of each, we hid those in a seperate room and let the kids find one of each of those.

Oakleigh is so proud of her find!! I had to help her though. Every time she would find an egg she just wanted to open it up and eat what was in side. She is not a big chocolate fan, so when she would get a piece of chocolate she would take a bite, hand it to me, and say "Don't like it!!" What?? Are you serious?? Who doesn't like chocolate??!! :)

Later that after noon the kids frosted cookies!! We had a lot of fun and a TON of YUMMY food!! I am so greatful for Easter and the meaning behind this Holiday. I am greatful for my Savior and the sacrifices that he made for me. Hope everyone had a fabulous day!!
