All of the Activities

 Finley is still obsessed with the "librarian's playground."  This is the playground behind Fishersville's library.  She asks to go every single day it seems.  She could literally swing for hours!




After the final dance recital, we had one more "practice."  The girls went to the Retreat at Fishersville to do their performance for the elderly.  It was just the sweetest thing!  Finley of course had to get plenty of love from Julie! 






It was music week at school this week!  Maybe Finley will play the clarinet like I did!



Finn has been working on her forward rolls at tumbling and is now beginning to tuck her chin a little more:) 



She's also still really into playing in all of the vehicles.  It is a nightmare to try to get her to get out.

And look at those little piggies that she keeps having me paint:)

Happy Mother's Day 2023


I am beyond thankful that I get to be Finley's mama!  Although she exhausts me daily, there is nothing better than a "tight hug" and just one more kiss each day! She has my whole heart! 



She gave me some new Birkenstocks, some watch bands, and a new shirt! 







Finley drew this card for me.  It is a picture of the two of us. 



Jeff made me a yummy breakfast and dinner!




Grandma came down for dinner.  Finley had fun giving her the card that she made. :) 



A fun picture of me, Grandma Mary, and my mom.

Dance Recital 2023

We survived a week of long nights at dance practice and dress rehearsals!  Whew, it was a LOT!  Finley performed her Under the Sea tap routine, Pure Imagination ballet routine, and hip hop routine.  Friday night we were not done until 9:15. I worked in the back helping 40 three and four years change costumes, have potty breaks, etc.  It was a LONG night, but they did so well!  There was a second performance on Saturday.  I was able to watch this one and Emily helped out in the back.  

There isn't much cuter than these little dancers on stage! The hip hop routine was so good and very entertaining!  Finley has already said that she wants to do all three dances again next year. :)
