Alaina's Dance Recital 2011

We have nicknamed Alaina our little tip-toe girl because she walks on her toes all the time. She has AMAZING muscle tone in her calves and ankles already from doing this. She also loves to dance so when we found out that she was able to get a spot with Jill Searle's dance I was THRILLED! Jill is the best dance teacher ever, and the sweetest lady. I actually took dancing from her too for about 15 years. This has been a really good year for Alaina. She has grown up so much and it has been so much fun to watch her. She made some new friends and was excited to have her cousin Jaidyn in her class too. She did a great job in her recital. At the rehearsal she was a little scared being on the stage, seeing all the people and not really knowing what was going on as this was her first time.....but on recital night she had none of those fears. She did great! She is so excited for next year!

April Fool's Day - A Murder on the Grill Murder Mystery Birthday Party

April Fool's Day 2011, which happens to have also been Garrett's Birthday. We celebrated his day by having a Murder Mystery Party. It was Murder on the Grill. Here are our list of suspects:


Ivan Spudnik, the recently defected Russian Rocket Scientist. Garrett had a blast playing this character and had us all laughing so hard. If you have seen "Despicable Me", Garrett was a perfect imitation of Gru! It was an excellent choice for him!



Chubby Cheddar, Johnny Angel, Tiara Diamond, and not pictured are Ivan Spudnik, Barby Q, and Bobby Sox aka Chelle the National Hula Hoop Champion


Miss Tiara Diamond, the newly crowned Miss Kansas City and Johnny Angel, our version of THE FONZ! Adam and Brenda were so great!


Our dazzling blonde, Ms. Barby Q and the famous rock musician Chubby Cheddar. It was so much fun having DJ and Somer there.
