Summer Driveway Parties

Summer is finally here and that means it is time for our nightly summer driveway parties. Everyone is invited. Sometimes it is just Christy and I & our friends Bryce and Amanda. Other nights we get quite the crowd of friends and neighbors. Most nights Bryce and I play basketball against Carter and his friends while everyone watches. After our basketball and the kids have gone to bed, us adults sit out in our chairs, eat treats, drink  pop, and just have a good time. Last night we had the fire out and we had fun just talking and making each other laugh. We love this time of year!

If you can dream it, you can dance it!

This last weekend was full of dance rehearsals and dance performances for our girls. Cambree and Calee both take dance at Julie Moffitt ballet school and they love it. They have been dancing all year and working so hard on their performances. This year the theme of the spring dance recital was, "If you can dream it, you can dance it!" and it was held at the Peery Egyptian theatre in downtown Ogden. It has been a year long process of dance lessons, performance days, fundraisers, costume fittings, rehearsals, and lots of money, but it was all worth it Saturday as we got to watch both of our girls perform. We were so proud of them. They both were so confident and performed their dances flawlessly. They were both so excited to get trophys at the end and we bought them purple roses to give to them, which they thought was great. I think Calee told everyone she saw at church on sunday that she danced and got a trophy and roses. It was really cute!
