Play group

Well, we went to the park today with our usual play group friends. I thought I should take some picures since we won't be going on too many more play group outings with these friends of KennaDee. She loves them all and has a blast with them. This first one is of them riding an elephant, however, KennaDee was too scared to get on top. She didn't want anything to do with riding the elephant, she just wanted to feed it leaves.




Here they are all driving a jeep. It took a bit to get all of them situated and driving at the same time but aren't they adorable?! Linnell is in the back with KennaDee and then Gigi and Carmen are in the front seat.





Here is KennaDee peeking through the bars on one of the playground areas. She loves taking pictures like this.



I think KennaDee looks so precious in this picture. I am going to have to take this one to photoshop and crop just her out. She looks so pensive and peaceful. I love it. By the way, if y'all didn't know, you can click on the pictures and it will make them bigger on your screen so you can see them better.


This is one of the last things we did before it started pouring down rain on us. They rode the camel. Gigi and KennaDee (on the back) were a little scared because there wasn't anything to hold onto and the the lump wasn't very comfortable, but they all look cute anyways.

Our Little Ballerina

So we enrolled KennaDee in a ballet class and she just loves it. She only goes once a week and from that day on, she repeatedly says "gigi, dance." Gigi is one of her friends from church that goes to the same ballet class as well. Here are some pictures of her dancing. This is KennaDee, on the right, before we left the house. Her ballet outfit is under her dress.

At this part, they find the yellow "T" on the floor and stand on it. They tap their toe 3 times while making butterfly wings, then run, run, run, and they jump over a little animal in the middle of the room then walk to the opposite side of the room and do it again. So, the top picture is her tapping her foot with her butterfly wings spread and the next picture is of her jumping over tigger. The teacher put tigger there because that's what they are reading about right now.

Then, on the left is their story time. They are reading about Winnie the Pooh. After they read the story, they get into costumes and act out the story. So the first one on the left here is them reading their story, then the next one down is KennaDee turning in circles like a ballerina and the last one is her and her classmates waving their balloons as they walk to "piglets house."













And at the end of class, they all get fairy dust or a sticker on the hands, then they make a train by holding on to each others shoulders and choo-choo out the door. It's kind of funny sometimes because some of the girls DO NOT like people touching their shoulders. Some days we have success with our train and others we do not.

Our New House


Well, the first house we were trying to purchase didn't work out but we have signed for a different house and it is only 4 houses down. It is the same model and a little bigger in square footage. It's also an end unit which will help in selling it later. We also have the side area which will be fun. It's 3 bedroom, 4 bath, 3 level townhome. There's lots of storage space, a rec room, a family room, dining room, breakfast area, patio off of the kitchen and a fenced back yard on the lower level. We're excited for the new place, new area, new people, new step in our life, but we will miss the ward we are in now and our friends we have made. But what an exciting new step.
