Christmas 2013 in the books

Another incredibly special year in the books.

Feel so blessed by the family and friends that surround us.

Thankful to get to be a mommy, wife, friend, sister, and daughter.

Merry Christmas 2013

Magic

Nutcracker 2013

So proud of all the hard work these little dancers have put in.  Our studio paired with the Evansville Children's Center for Dance to host the Nutcraker in Washington.  Our students were able to be extras and experience being part of a big production.

Ayla was a mother ginger dancer and a gumdrop

Leah was a butterfly and a gumdrop

Gingerbreading

I love our annual tradition of decorating gingerbread houses

And I love those smiles even more.

Christmas Show

These little dancers sure are growing.  I was proud of how well every one did at the Christmas Show.

Our studio is growing so fast we have had to move to a different location, plus split times with the older classes.  Very happy for the growth this year!

New House + Lots of snow

Don't be thrown off from the title.  We got a new house AND a lot of snow in one fail swoop.

The kids & pets have adjusted well.  I feel like I'm in a dream!

More on the house later.  Just a few sweet pictures to document.
