Happy 6th Birthday Clara Grace!!!!!

Lets just say I have been a little busy around here. I would have never been late on a Birthday post!!!! Life is amazing but really crazy right now. Clara turned 6 on April 18th, I really can't believe where the time has gone. I remember meeting her for the very first time when she was born and now 6! WOW We ended up celebrating her Birthday three times. She was very special this year!!!!! For her real Birthday our family went out to Buffalo Wild Wings per Clara's request and the staff brought her a birthday treat and we sang to her. Then Clara ended up inviting some friends from school and dance. I thought 20 girls would be a lot but I thought know way would they all be able to make it. Well we had twenty girls show up to our house. OH boy crazy but they all did great and Clara loved every minute of it!!! We had a princess fairy Birthday party where everyone dressed up, we did nails, face painting and painted flower pots and each little girl planted their own flower and brought it home. Everything turned out so cute and all the little fairys did so well. Here are some pictures of both parties! Thanks to all our family and friends for coming to celebrate with Clara! OK,

Easter 2013

We woke up this morning at 5:35am from Clara and Sophia screaming the "Easter Bunny was here!" I just thought OMG its early but time to get up and grab the camera and video for the moments of the excitement! Now with all the noise all four kids up by 5:45am! Early Early morning. So started out with the day kids eating candy instead of a normal breakfast, went to a new church in Lakeville but walked in 10 minutes before church was going to start and there was no where to sit or stand! We decided to leave and go to a church in Savage at 11:00 mass, on our way there everyone stated they are so hungery. We new the kids wouln't last so stop at Mcdonalds had to happen. Got to our second church early!!!!!!!! The girls wanted to sit dead center front row!!!! Andy and I were a little nervous that this could get ugly. Well kids did great Leo and Clara, Hazel very busy but did well. When we got back home we did our family Easter egg hunt outside, so fun but a little cool out today. Super fun, but we need naps now after a very busy and early morning. Hope everyone is enjoying their family like we are doing.

Competition has started!!!!!!!

This past weekend the girls had their first competition this season at the Burnsville Performing Arts. The girls did amazing and really fun to watch them finally get to dance on stage what they have been practicing all year and many hours a week!. Clara performed a tap song, jazz song with her class and a small group jazz that was Oh so cute! Sophia performed a jazz and tap with her class and a large group Jazz. The girls also danced with Daddy to Michael Jackson "Im Bad" so cute. I have to say my husband has some dance moves I have never seen. One of Sophia's dance friend told her mom that "Sophia's dad really can dance". I can't believe how much they have learned over these past years. Very fun to watch and the girls really do enjoy it. Come cheer the girls on next competition at the new Hotel called Radisson Blue next to MOA last weekend in April! Please ask me for details.
