Party Boy or Girl???

Tatum, Jillian and Kai
Kolton, Kai, Jillian and Amber

Kai and Jillian


Year one - Angel

Year two - Angel

Year three - Angel and party boy

Year four - Angel and finally.....party girl!!

Again, it's one of those things. Kai and her dreams/wishes. TDA sponsors the childrens cast auditons for the Nutcracker ballet with the Moscow ballet. Four years ago, she auditioned to be in the show. She was originally cast as a snowflake. She is very small for her age, and she was the same size as all of the snowflakes. After rehearsals started, she was changed to an angel. She was happy. When we went to the show, she saw all the different characters. She fell in love with the party scene. She wanted so bad to be a party girl. The next year, she was cast an Angel...again. Well, maybe next year she said. Then as she does every year, she cut her hair in August and donated it to Locks of Love. Nutcracker auditions came around, she knew she was old enough to be in the party scene, but she was cast as a party boy. Why? Her hair was not long enough to be a party girl. Party girls, have to have their hair half up/half down and curly. She was devasted. Nonetheless, she was a party boy, and also an angel. She was still small enough and after two years, she knew the part. What happened this year was that she for no reason would cut her hair, just a trim and style. She was determined to be a party girl. She broke her record, she had donated her hair for three straight years. And this year, nothing. Auditions came again, and ...finally a party girl!!! And also an angel, why mess with tradition. So here are the pictures for this years Nutcracker. Kai, finally a party girl..

vous êtes conviés

Here are pictures of the invitations for Kassie's 13th Birthday party. I had so much fun making them. Hum...maybe because I used my three favorite colors, maybe because I like to make invitations, or maybe it's just because I LOVE to plan parties. Either way, here is a sneak peak. Sorry the pictures are so bad, my camera is dead and I used my phone.

Good things come to those who wait...

I was having one of those bad Mondays. One of those Mondays when everything seems to be going wrong. 1. Our phones at the office are not working. 2. Statements went out over the weekend and angry patients are calling to complain. 3. My coffee got cold and I had to throw it away, and now I have a caffeine headache. 4. My cell phone has been tied up all day because I'm having our calls forwarded to it. (good thing for rollover minutes). 5. My boss has just added two more things to my darker pink "TODO" notebook. And just as I was about to roll up in a ball and hide under my desk, I got this e-mail. Dear Kindle Customer, Today, we introduced Kindle 2, the next generation of our wireless reading device.

Flashback Friday

This Friday, I am participating in two links. My first is with Alicia over at More Than Words . There are only two weeks to go for TDA's Summer Recital. This year it will be held at Higley Performing Arts on June 20 at 7:00. Kassie will be in aproximately 14 dances so far. Might change though. Hopefully it will change to less. : ) Recital is in full swing right now. Every day, you see kids walking out with their costumes. It is so cute. I especially love seeing the little two and three year olds. They are always so excited. This is a picture of Kai in her 2nd Recital with TDA. It was her first year taking more than two classes. I think she was in five or six recital numbers. It was her first official ballet dance. She had never taken a full ballet class. She since has learned to love it. This picture was taken in 2005 making her only nine years old. How fast time goes..... June 2005
