~~BIG DAY FOR SADIE~~

Sadie had her last soccer game and dance concert last Saturday!  She scored 2 goals in her final game and did an AMAZING job in her dance concert!  She truly is such a great little performer.  She smiles the WHOLE time she is on stage.  It was great to have some of the grandparents there (Aunt Amy took Grandpa Robert's ticket So she came instead) Thanks Amy for coming :)  Our kids all came and supported her too (even the boys :)  I am so glad they came even without complaining!!  It is pretty important to me to have siblings there to support one another :)  Great job Sadie!  Now bring on Dance Company :)

~~RACHELS GRADUATION ANNOUNCEMENT~~

 So strange to think that just 1 week from Thursday and Rachel will graduate from High School.  We are so proud of the girl she is and the things she has accomplished.  We are so excited to see what great things are in store for Rachel.  She is a confident, beautiful, talented, friendly, humble, funny, spiritual, loyal, hard working etc... girl! :)
