Dance Recital 2010

Gracie danced so beautifully Saturday night at their Spring Dance Recital. The high school auditorium was full of proud families and friends watching the beautiful dancers...

Gracer's Game!

Just some pics from Gracie's game...she plays different postions everytime...She is in T-ball but, hasn't had to use the T yet...She has fun and her biggest complaint is not having any sliding pads to slide into home. Oh Gracer Speed Racer..

Hitting the ball....running fast (sorta)!

Cruising across homeplate..wishing she was sliding..

Playing 3rd..Hey Batter Batter...Hey Batter Batter...(Yes Lori, it's the Lime green Lucky bow from Ohio!)

Springtime Busy

Taylor's new ride that she received for her 12th Birthday...She's cruising the neighborhood (at 15 mph)on her new battery powered Ezip400 Scooter...Of course her brother, sister and cousin love it too..so it looks like we will be investing in atleast 2 more..smaller, slower versions of course...

To say Benjamin is a Daddy's Boy would be a slight understatement..He found daddy's workshirt and wore it around all day today!

Taylor and Sydney

Kayla and Taylor..Pretty sure our families are related somehow!

Brad Pitt Maxwell...This team has fun, devoted parents and we are very excited to be part of it!

Taylor D...Poser

Taylor #9 with a Single..

Dad had to bring some work home and is also making a "race car" for Gracie's school so the kids have new TV seats..we just put pillows in for cushion...

Not sure who this kid belongs to...

Future Marco and Ashley(Force)?

Global Impact Awareness Club

Taylor participates in the Global Impact Awareness Club after school and this weekend they held a seminar to educate the community..Luckily, Taylor's tournament was local so we were able to check out what they had been working so hard on the last few weeks between games..The mascot is cute Allison Herring.

Madi, Gracie and Taylor..It's been raining around here alot..hence the rainboots :-)
