Talent Show

Rebecca & her friends sang "Make Your Home In Me" for the talent show.  They were so cute!  For as nervous as she was last year to dance with her BFF Sasha, I can't believe how confident she was up there this year.  She's growing up!

Happy 8th birthday, Becca!

Our beautiful Becca is 8.  Wow.  She is so sweet, gentle, creative, & kind.  She could read ALL DAY LONG, draw all night, & sing while she does both.  What a joy! 

 Started the day off right with birthday donuts, a few presents, & a lot of hugs.

She helped me to make her "fashion" cake as requested.  :)

 

 Aunt Cara's family joined us for dinner & lots of backyard fun.

Love you always, Becca-boo!

The littles

Love them.

A new 'do

 Teresa decided it was time to get a new 'do.  So, we cut off 10 inches of hair!  We donated it to Pantene this time & it seems like a really good program.

 She looks so different!  We love it...

and it sure makes brushing her hair easier.

Goal set, goal met

Together with some friends I did my first REAL consistent exercise since high school.  Ninety days of HIIT workouts was super challenging & awesome!  A few of us were able to get together to celebrate our achievement & we had a blast.  Way to go, ladies!  I could have never done it without your support & friendship.  Here's to another round soon!

(And, yes, we're celebrating our health with indulgent dessert & drinks.  :)  )

1st Communion

Congratulations on receiving your 1st Holy Communion, Rebecca!

 So blest to have Great Grandma join us for the celebration!

 Rebecca with her Godparents:  Aunt Andrea & Uncle Dan

 Since 1st Communion here is always on the first Sunday after Easter,

we celebrated with Divine Mercy sundaes.  ;)

Rebecca couldn't even wait until the party was over to start reading her new Bible.  She made it to Genesis 9 before everyone was gone!

  

Such a special day
