Wow..to say this week flew by would be an understatement..I can hardly believe it’s Friday already! We’ve had a really good week overall!

Monday Declan decided to try Acrobatics at the studio..and loved it.. Ziah started her Tap/Jazz combo and loved it!

Tuesday Noah got his blue belt in Karate! Yeppie!!

Thursday was the start of Ballet for Ziah and Declan had Karate.

In between that stuff we’ve done a lot!

Here’s the 3 little ones doing their seat work the other day:

not sure if it’s the upcoming full moon or what but Declan and Ziah have gotten along exceptionally well.. here he is helping her with her work:

I’ve been working my way through a few John Deere puzzles.. here’s Declan and than Ziah helping..both are extremely good..even at puzzles over 1000 pieces!

Ziah is back into playdough !

Noah made us some yummy peanut butter cookies!

Here’s Sir Taejan reading on his sister’s new area rug ( her new floor was just finished up on Tuesday)

Target had some cute 100 piece puzzles at the dollar spot..so of course Ziah and Declan each got one..Ziah loved that she could do it herself!

Showing off her new floor, new area rug and her new pony comforter!

reading to each other:

Taejan doing some “preschool”:

Of course that brought in the other 2!

Outside enjoying the chilly but nice weather:(Taejan on his new John Deere he got for his birthday)

Noah finished his first Lapbook from HOAC for the new school year:

And sir Taejan again..learning about his colors.. he will eventually know them right??

Well today was the Sharing Roots festival and Terpsichore had a bunch of dances so , of course, we went! We dropped Noah off at his Nutcracker tryouts and off we went!

Everything for kids was FREE…. they had a BLAST:

The Bouncy House..  Which the kids went on at leaast 10 times..not even kidding!

Face Painting:

Sandart:

Necklace making:( also suncatcher painting not pictured but they each made 2)

We ran into Sensei Sabrina:

And got to watch lots of”our girls” dancing:

Ziah and Taejan especially love it!

Ziah watching with Gramma:

Nah got done with his audition and joined us.. for the first time in 8 season’s he’s NOT a party child or Fritz…whaaa… he just got tooo big over the last year ( only an inch to go and he’s taller than me) so he’s going to be a mouse!

Then Ziah and I left the festival and walked down to her Auditions..here she is all ready:

I am happy to say she will be a Reindeer!!! She is beyond excited!!!( so am I)!!!

This week dance starts back up.. Noah has Hip Hop once a week ( and Karate 3x’s), Jadziah has Tap/Jazz and Ballet along with Soccer! Declan is not dancing this year so he just has karate twice a week. Oh and in a few weeks art classes start for Ziah… can you say busy???

I only took a few pictures from the actual recital this year!

My neice:(center)

Ziah got a new bigger girl helmet the other day..she loves it!

Noah’s friend Michaila came over yesterday to hang out after they went to a movie… the 3 wee ones just adore her!

Taejan LOVES having his toe nails painted.. So Michaila gave him some fresh polish!

Yup.we’re still here. the Recital is OVER.. it went very well… Jadziah did amazing yesterday… all “our girls” did.. I am so going to miss the ones that are moving on in their lives.

No dance for a few weeks then Ziah is taking Tap and Jazz for the summer ( 4 weeks) and Noah has decided to try dance again..he danced for years then stopped 2 years ago..  But he’s going to take Hip Hop with Kim M. this summer , she’s VERY excited to have a boy in   the class.. after that we’ll see if he continues come fall!

we need a few days to “recover” from the tiredness of the recital so we’ll be around in a few!!!

Ok hoping this works!
