Let's Play Ball!

In early June, Avery had the last game of her first season of T-Ball, so I brought my camera along. She got her first medal and was so excited. Jackson had a game right after Avery's so I took a few pictures of his game too! They play for the same league so it was a whole morning of baseball and it was so much fun!



Avery's First Dance Recital

Avery's first Dance Recital is tonight and we're SO excited!! I've been looking forward to this day ever since they told me I was having a girl!! She had her rehearsal yesterday afternoon and she did SO good!! She loved being on stage, which surprised me because I thought she would be scared and shy but she wasn't at all. In fact, she said she wished she could dance the whole time instead of just the one song. Ha! (Let's hope she has that same attitude tonight!) She loved it and also loved watching all the other dancers perform while we waited.

Here are the professional recital pictures they took a few weeks ago and a few I took yesterday from their rehearsal. I'm so proud of her!!

And here's just a little clip from rehearsal yesterday! So cute!!



West Palm Beach Vacation: Day 7

Day 7 was Friday and our last full day in Florida. My parents, Jake and I and the kids all drove 2 1/2 hours north that morning to visit Kennedy Space Center for the day. My nieces decided that a day relaxing at the rental house sounded better so they opted to stay back. Ha!

We decided to go to KSC because Jackson is really into learning about Space! I will say that we all had fun and there a few things special for the kids to do, however, for the most part it was over Jackson's head and a little too much information for him. Both he and Avery got bored during parts of it so I sort of wish we would have waited a couple more years to take the kids there. Us adults really enjoyed it though and the kids did enjoy parts.

This building is ginormous. They said a regular sized car could actually fit on one of the stripes on the flag, that's how big this building is. It's hard to tell just how massive it is.

The pictures don't do this rocket ship justice. It was HUGE!!!

This little see-thru tunnel was high above the main level of the building. The picture doesn't do it justice.

After we got back from Kennedy Space Center, we ordered pizza from Pizza Lino on Singer Island. We ate and then got packed so that we could be at the airport bright and early for our flight home the next morning! We had a great trip!
