Talent on Parade









So 5 weeks after Madalyn's back surgery she was back competing with the Dimensions at Talent on Parade held at the Hays Performing Arts Center. She did a fanstastic job, competed in 5 dances and had so much fun being back with her friends. She also wanted to be back on that stage. Madalyn is one of the most beautiful and resilient people that I know, but the pictures speak for themselves.

Mother Goose play for Beck





The Negely 1st graders performed a Mother Goose themed play for parents. Mr. Mika's class performed Rock a Bye Baby. Beck did a great job and it's always fun to get to watch him in his natural habitat. He is so funny. Jeff also snapped some pics of his work on the wall by the class. I love the hand - it was inspired by their MLK project.

Jeff turns 41!



Jeff turned 41 last week and we celebrated by attending the Lady GaGa concert. I'll have to get those pictures from him to post. The concert was amazing, and then on Friday we had burgers and beer with the family and friends. The best thing was that Mom bought Jeff new cookware! Heck yeah!

Spring Baseball 2011






Beck is playing in the coach pitch league this year with the same coach he's had the last 3 years. The Reds are doing really well - halfway through the season we've only had 2 losses. Beck is still pretty hit or miss (literally) because he'll jack it into the outfield or he'll swing out. So frustrating! Bristol started t-ball this year in the non-competitive group. Our coach is great and we're enjoying watching Bristol play. He is so stinkin' cute out there and it so much fun to just sit out there and laugh when the kids run to third base, or just sit down in the outfield because its boring. :)
