It's that big day - End of Baseball and (endless) Dance Recital Day
My poor girl has to go all day and she danced last night too - when I finally pulled up the schedule though we found out the teacher pulled her Tap and she is only performing her main dances once in all 4 shows, but she has to be in the Finale for all 4 shows, thus making her be there from 9am to 10pm tonight - I think there are some child labor laws to be broken for sure!!!! Unfortunately the dance teacher has her "favorite" groups and they are in all 4 shows - the girls and parents all know it - not sure how it will pan out for us next year but for now, she is putting on her show face. She just got her pictures last night - I can't believe how long her legs look! She is just a regular old 6th grader - but when you make them up - it's kinda frightening!
Ian has had a great season - his hitting has been monstrous lately and he even got a Grand Slam last week! Because of the dance recital I'll miss his last game :( but then they get to have a great party at my friend Julie's house - it's the same one as last year with the water slide in the side of the hill (and the place where I had to jump into the water to save Ian!)
Cman's poor team didn't do that well this year - but personally he did great - he improved his pitching and the coach LOVES him to play catcher - he's one of the only ones that can make throws to 2nd and keeps runners from stealing home. He has a big scrape from last week diving for a save.... he's a great player!
I love watching the kids at their sports - it's always so hard to run around each week for practices and such - but it is so rewarding when they are out there having a great time and improving each year. This truly is what life is about - just watching your kids grow and learn - have a great weekend.
Wow - your kids are looking older! That is a cute picture of your Tyler!
ReplyDeleteFrustrating to deal with a teacher who so obviously plays favorites! Your little girl sure is looking grown up. Good thing she probably goes around in a tee-shirt and jeans every other day. Good for those boys doing so well in baseball!
ReplyDeletethey all look GREAT! gosh! super cute talented kids! and so lucky you put them in all that stuff, and tote them around to it!
ReplyDeleteWow, that is a long time dancing for Tyler. Your kids are growing up so fast and your boys are so handsome and Tyler is very pretty. Now you can have a little rest before it all starts over again.
ReplyDeletedang thats a long time for tyler--she does look great in her photo!
ReplyDeletebaseball--i know nothing about..i enjoy the food stand though!!!
i remember your baywatch rescue from last time!! too funny!
Those photos of your kids are all really nice. I'm sorry to hear about Tyler's teacher playing favorites. From personal experience, it's no fun being around when it's happening to you. Glad she's willing to stick it out and put on a game face.
ReplyDeleteWow, you really could have used a doughnut, too! Our days have been filled with end of soccer stuff and birthday parties and school parties, too. I think we all need an ice cream float day sometime here soon! hmm, I wonder...
ReplyDeleteYeah for summer! We too had the marathon Dance recital day...not quite as long as yours though- Yikes! What cute kiddos!
