Last Tball Game

Isabella did great at her last tball game! She scored twice! We are all glad tball is over. She didn't seem to really like it, but I think it was just the uniform issue. She didn't like looking like a boy....haha. As you can see from the pictures, making her wear the tball pants was not on my priority list, so we let her wear shorts instead. We are very proud of her for finishing up the season...it was a long one! She says she wants to play soccer next year instead....so we will see what happens.

School Picnic

Below: Isabella and her teacher this year, Mrs. Lawson. Isabella had a great first experience with school and her teacher is to thank for that. I appreciate all the hard work and dedication she has to her students. Isabella is still coloring pictures for her teacher and we are halfway through the summer.

Above: Isabella holding a lady bug. Yes, that is right....the child that is deathly afraid of any bug; big or small, is holding a lady bug. I knew I had to get a picture for proof of that one.

Below: Belle and Mrs. Sneed the preschool director. Mrs. Sneed was the director this year but will not be returning next year. She was sooo good to Isabella in the mornings. She was always there to watch the kids and keep them entertained until school started. We will miss Mrs. Sneed, but we know Mrs. Jacobs will do a great job next year as well.

I took a picture of Isabella under this sign the first day of school and took one on the last day. That way she can truly see just how much she changed from day one. She has grown up sooo much in the last year. She is taller, smarter, and sassier than ever. But, I love her with all my heart and can't wait to see what the future holds for this princess.

McDonald's Field Trip

Isabella got to go on her first field trip at school. They walked to McDonald's, had ice cream and played on the play ground. She had fun. She is not much of an ice cream eater, but she had a great time!

Long time

Wow....I haven't been on here in forever...I am so far behind. These pictures are from dance recital night. Bella did such a great job that she got to get her iCarly sunglasses. She loved them sooo much...She wears them everywhere. We don't really watch iCarly that much, but she sure loves them. Emberli had to get in on the picture taking action as well. ( and yes, they did dress themselves)

Dance Recital

The above picture is dress rehearsal night. And the one below is the night of the recital.

Above: coloring with friends in dance class

She is the last one on the left.

Bella and her friends in gymnastics class.

Gymnastics part of the recital

Below starts the ballet dance routine.

She loved getting her flowers at the end. And of course, Emberli wanted her picture taken too!

Bella got a certificate for doing the recital, so Emberli posed with the program and pretended it was her certificate....hahaha.

I am way behind on the blogging thing again. Sorry, but it has been crazy around here. Isabella had her dance and gymnastics recital in May. Here are some pics from it. Some of them aren't very good quality due to the fact that the lighting was just on the stage (as it should be). But, it doesn't make for taking pictures a very easy task.

Tball compromise

I had to miss one of Bella's tball games this season, because I had strep throat. I was NOT a happy camper about it. So, Robert took her to the game and I stayed at home with Emberli. However, I did manage to get her picture before her game. We have not made her wear her hat anymore and we have also let her wear shorts to the games now. She hates wearing the pants that make her look like a boy! hahaha....we think she looks cute, but she doesn't think so.

Gymnastics Girls

We handed down some of Bella's gymnastic leotards to Emberli and she loves her "Ontana" one. In normal people language that means Hannah Montana. Emberli wore this leotard all day, she was so proud of it. Now she thinks she can do all the things Bella can do.

Bluebonnets

We took the girls out to the bluebonnets awhile back when they were in bloom. The loved playing in the bluebonnets. Emberli didn't quite know what to think. This last picture just cracks me up every time I look at it. Emberli is getting just as sassy as her older sister. She has noticed that Bella "poses" everytime and so now she copies her. It is absolutely adorable and cracks me up everytime she does it! We just love these girls!
