I love these where he is telling his team mates where to stand in preparation for a penalty kick or a corner kick. I love how much he loves the game.

Day at the Park

One nice Saturday when we had a rare break from soccer, we headed to the park to spend a few hours. We had a great time!

I looked over, and this sweet boy had gotten his sister in the swing and was pushing her. Warms a mamma’s heart!!

Reflections

Braden’s photography entry that won 1st place in his division at his school won 3rd place in the State!

He was honored at a luncheon recently.

Here he is standing next to his entry.

Miss Arkansas Alyse Eady was there! Gracie was excited to get a picture with her. We got to see her do her ventriloquism. Let me just say… she is awesome! She totally should’ve won Miss America!!

Here’s Braden with his entry, medal and certificate.

Dance Pics

Here’s some pics from the dance recital. She didn’t like the bright flash in her eyes and the first couple are with the flash. She did better after we turned the flash off!

Grandma came to spend the day and come to the recital with us.

Dance!

Gracie had her dance recital Saturday night. She did GREAT! It was a fun night of great dancing and I was so proud of my little dancer.

Here’s some videos of her parts of the dances. She is in the little black, white and red costume. She has a curly side pony tail and a red bow in her hair. She is in the center of the frame in the videos.

Opening

Penguins

Finale

I especially love her bow and curtsey at the end :) And when she found us and waved :)

My Love

I took Gracie outside to snap a few pictures of her after she had her dance pictures recently.

I know she’s mine, but I have to say, she is such a beautiful little girl-- Inside and out.

Foot

My foot is healing up nicely and I’m not in nearly as much pain as I expected to be. I’m so thankful! Praise the Lord!!!

Here’s what it looked like 24 hrs after:
