Abby's dance class

Abby enjoys doing a lot of things and one of them is dancing. If music comes on she is either dancing or conducting or doing some sort of hybrid of the two. So we thought we should enroll her in a dance class. I found one in Mesa taught by a friend and told some of her play group friends about it. So Abby gets to dance with some of her cute friends which makes it even better. The dance class is a "Mommy and me" dance class since the kids are all ages 2-4. Sometimes I think the Mommy's do all of the work as we not only try to follow "Teacher Sara" and try to keep track of our beautiful girls! We love it! Here are some wonderful pictures showing off Abby's new skills and her pretty pink leotard!
Before we left for dance class I tried to take a picture of Abby in her new leotard and she kept running at the camera!
I did get her to pose right before we left!

Here is a video of Abby dancing with her scarf. At the end she puts it on like a cape and that really is what she is thinking. She often brings us her "baby" (blanket from Aunt Christie) and wants us to put it on her like a cape so that she can fly!

Life goes by so quickly. . .

During my freshman year of college at BYU I was fortunate enough to meet the most wonderful people. We had countless adventures and I think about my friends so often. Unfortunately we are spread across the country. Luckily, there is one in Arizona with us! Wade is one of the most genuinely wonderful and sincere people you will ever meet and he managed to find a wife (Jen) that is the exact same way. They now have 4 amazing boys and the oldest, Kevan was baptized last Saturday, June 12th. They invited us to go to the baptism and we decided we couldn't miss it! It is just hard to believe that my unforgettable long-time friends now have children old enough to be baptized! Where has the time gone? I am so happy we were able to go and hope Wade and Jen know that we think the world of them. Here is a picture of Wade's whole family and one following of Wade, Jen, some of his boys and us.
