After practicing, Sadie's class had "free dance" and Dash joined in.

Dash plays catch with Daddy for the first time.

The Performance

Free bounce house at the ice cream festival.   I didn't notice - until reviewing the video - that Sadie trips her brother to make him fall.

Sadie entertained at Brian's house with her spin on "Take Me Home, Country Roads."  She has a book with the words and loves to "sing" the song.  Still working on singing vs. yelling

Sadie's last day of school.  

 I had no idea she could follow directions so well.

5-30-2012 Sadie's Class Party and Last Day

I went to Sadie's Party at the end of school and she made me this beautiful bracelet.  She was very enthusiastic about having a pattern

Sadie and her friend Gracie

Sadie's class - 5 more kids than at the beginning.

Our daughter the giant.  Well, they can't say she is not tall enough to be in kindergarten.

5-28-2012 Farm AND Ice Cream Festival

On the way to the Velvet Ice Cream Festival, we stopped at Slate Run Farm to visit the animals (and farm equipment).

Dash loved the cool cars at the Ice Cream Festival.

Sadie got to sit in Cinderella's carriage

Sadie also performed some interpretive dance for the locals.

Look at those tires!  

They even had a playground for the kids.

Sadie and Dash lined up for a pic

Dash was very impressed with the big tractors

Sadie was very impressed (and brave) about the BIG slide!

Wow!

Yummy ice cream at Young's

And we saw the cows that make it (well the milk anyway)

Yummy treats after pictures

Thank you to Jenna and Jordan's mom for the beautiful and delicious frog cookies!

5-20-2012 Sadie's Dance Recital

Dash loves the throwing disk.  (It is a little dangerous because he runs right up to your face to throw to you, naturally hitting unexpected receivers.)

Sadie didn't want me to inadvertently get a picture of anyone but her.

They received medals and shirts after the show.

Miss Julia came all the way from Chicago to see the performance!

Sadie walking out to mobs of adoring fans.

Aunt Lillie came to see the show!

Of course, Sadie's best friend AJ was there!

Where did this crooked smile come from.  CHEESE!

Enthusiastic first position.
