dancing diamond

Audrey finished gymnastics in the fall and began dance in January.
She really enjoyed gymnastics but was so excited to dance again!

last day of preschool

On June 7th, Audrey finished her very first year of preschool!!
It's hard to believe that the school year is over. Audrey loved every minute of preschool. Her teachers were wonderful, she met new friends, and she did amazingly well academically.
Mommy and Daddy could not be any prouder of our big girl!

On the last day of school, Audrey performed on stage with the rest of her preschool class.
She did a great job and smiled the entire time!

celebrating two

 Madison's birthday began with eating her favorite food for breakfast, pancakes! Then Mommy took Madison to Toys R Us to help pick out her birthday present, we stopped by Daddy's work to say "hi", played at the park for a bit, and went to McDonald's for lunch. It was a fun filled day! That night, we all went out for dinner and grabbed some ice cream for dessert. Earlier that morning, Nani brought over a princess birthday balloon that sang and a special birthday cupcake with two balloon candles.
We lit the candles and sang "Happy Birthday" to our two year old!!
   

 
time for presents!
Audrey picked out these lady bug plates all by herself. Madison loved them!
Sissy on her new quad! Woo-hoo!
The weekend after her birthday, we celebrated with close friends and family at Madison's favorite place to play, The Little Gym!!
