School Dance Festival 2015

I only had two children participating in the dance festival this year.  Next year it will only be one.... and then we'll go back to two kids for a couple of years.

Unfortunately my phone was too full and I couldn't video Amelia's dance... but I did manage to snap a couple of pictures.

Memorial Weekend Activities

What my weekend looked like:

I planted my garden.


Lifted some of my sinking stepping stones:
BEFORE

AFTER

I only did six, so I still have about a dozen to go....

I also went for a run and passed the cemetery.

Made a stop by my Great-Grandpa and Great-Grandma's grave.

Very thankful for those who protect my freedom and allow me the opportunity to do the things I choose to do.

Three Things Thursday - Shoes, Wind & Amelia Earhart

#1
Sometimes I get up early to go running and it's still dark.  I try not to turn on the lights so that I won't wake up Nathan. Sometimes in the dark, I grab two different pairs of running shoes and end up having to turn on the light anyway....  :)


#2
Sometimes, where I live it can be really windy.  Ok, so most of the time it is really windy.  My poor globe willow finally gave out.  This was the last globe willow in our yard.  The other one gave out in the wind a few years ago.  Plus it took out a few sections of our fence, which was awesome!!


It also took a large patch of shingles off the front and back of our house.  So Nathan fixed that as well.

#3
Yesterday, Amelia had a Biography Fair at school.  She went as Amelia Earhart.  What a sweetie she is!
