I have been meaning to post this since Monday but it has taken me forever because I had so many pictures and video to go through and download....Anyway, we had a really fun/busy weekend. It was extra fun because dad and Thresa got to be here for all the many activities. First, on Friday night Paige performed with the little cheerleaders at halftime at the varsity football game. I signed her up for this cheer camp to see how she would do performance wise before I try to find her a dance class. The first day she was pretty shy, but soon she warmed up and absolutely loved it!! She still does cheers and dances at home every day. I have been teaching her some of the cheers I remember and I even went to a thrift store today and bought her some pom poms which she has been waving around nonstop since :) There are some videos of her doing some cheers and her dance. I wish that she would not have seen me with the camera because when she was performing her dance, I made her nervous and she forgot a lot of the moves, but it is still really cute. She is the little girl in green in the middle.
On Saturday while Tobey worked in the yard the rest of us went to the fair which was really fun. We looked at all the animals and rode some rides. It was really cute because Avery said, "cow" and she also imitated us snorting when we were looking at the pigs. I didn't get any video of it though because she would stop doing it the second the camera was pointed at her (of course!)
Sunday was Kennedy Kate's 3rd birthday and I had fun making her a Sleeping Beauty cake. She got some pretty dress up dresses and a pink trunk to store her dress up clothes in.
And this weekend, Avery also started taking some steps. She has been standing by herself for a few weeks now, but she will take a few steps in between things. If she has something to hold on to and push like a stroller, she can cross the entire room. It won't be long now until she is walking! I can't believe it - she has grown up too fast! :)
We hope you enjoy seeing our crazy weekend. Love ya!

Blessings....
Today I was making this slide show of my beautiful girls and I was overcome with feelings of love and gratitude that I am able to be the mom to these amazing spirits. They are so beautiful inside and out and even though some days I want to lock myself in the bathroom and cry, I would not trade places with anyone because I am deeply blessed.
