Prima Ballerina

Our beautiful ballerina



Although she says ballet is her favorite, I think she is awesome at tap. The night of the revue was MAGICAL. All of our family was able to come and support Allee and we definitely have a good cheering section. This was Allee's second year at Tueller's so she totally knew the drill as far as the revue was concerned. She has improved so much and I love to hear all the new things she has leared every week. We really are blessed that she loves it there so much. She was so excited and danced so beautifully, Derek and I are so proud of what an amazing dancer and wonderful daughter she is.
After the revue Allee always gets to pick where we eat, it was no shock that she picked Firehouse yet again.

Rainbows

The one bright point to all of this rain we have been getting is that my kids LOVE to look for rainbows. Every time the sun starts to peek out after it has been raining Allee will run to both the back door and front door to look for a rainbow. This all started with an episode of Curious George, and now rainbows are fascinating. She gets so excited and since Pierce adores his sister more and more every day, he gets excited. He will point, smile, and give us his fake giggle. On this particular day we saw a double rainbow which was especially wonderful.
If this is the reaction I get when it rains, the cold miserable day is completely worth it. They will be yelling, bouncing, laughing, and making sure you don't take your eyes off of it for even one minute. AH, it's the small things in live that give you your greatest joys.
