Part 1 Of The Last Couple Months

I can't believe its been almost 2 1/2 months since I've updated my blog.  I guess the old saying is true, "Time flys when your having fun!"

So here's part 1 of the last few months.

Dance pretty much controls our life during the spring.  When your doing 5 competitions it goes by quick and they all pretty much run together.  This year was great for both the girls.  Mariah really came into her own with dance this year and has become very good with the tricks, we really are so proud of her!  Kenzie stepped it up this year with 2 solos and really showed the judges what she was made of.  We have been in AZ now for 2 years and have been at 2 different studios, well why make this year any different.  We have decided to move again to another studio, this one I hope to call home for a few more years.  It is one of the top schools in our area and it offers better technique for Kenzie and the tricks for Mariah, please have your fingers crossed for us.

The other thing that occupied our nights 2 to 3 times a week was T-Ball.  We really enjoyed watching Mason this year learn the rules of t-ball.  He really came out of his shell with hitting the ball and running around the bases.  So the next 8 pictures are so funny, you will see the ball coming to Mason and watch what he does after he gets it, priceless!  He also proved to be a great hitter and that boy can run fast!

After school was out we took a trip to California for a long weekend.  We went to the Knotts Berry Farms, the beach and we took them to the Strawberry Festival so they could meet a few kids from the Disney Channel.  Kenzie brought her friend Kenzie and I think they really had a good time with all the fun stuff we did. 

The "Bird House"

There was just this one day that the only thing Mason would talk about was building a bird house.  So of course all day I did all I could to put it off onto Paul.  I would say "well that's something your going to have to talk to dad about."  Finally when Paul got home from work Mason started to bug him about making a bird house.  I was leaving that night so Paul was going to have to figure this one out and he did.  They went to home depot and bought a bird house for Mason to put in our back yard.  He even bought a little nest and Mason put a box of raisins for the birds to eat, not sure how they will eat them but its the thought that counts right!
