Tiny Dancer

Annie started dance class last week and she is super excited! It is a combo class that includes ballet, tap and tumbling. She has the cutest little ballet and tap shoes! They are just learning the basics and having fun right now. Annie seems to be doing great! In all the pictures she is doing almost exactly what Ms. Ashley is doing! The girl has rhythm! She obviously got it from her Daddy because if you've ever seen me dance it is not a pretty sight!

Here are a couple of pictures from her first night. Parents only got to go in for about 15 minutes to watch and take pictures. They do tap the first thirty minutes and ballet the next thirty minutes so the pictures are all tap pictures. She is a super cute ballerina too!

Learning to tap with her heels and toes!

A cute little stance!

Checking herself out in the mirror!

Our Sweet Biscuit

Our sweet girl is no longer here with us. She is running around the green grass in Heaven. We miss her so much and were very sad to say goodbye to her.

Mitch and I got Biscuit a few months after we got married and she was only six weeks old. She was the cutest thing I had ever seen! She was our little baby. I can still remember when she lost her first tooth! I remember because I was so scared, I had no idea dogs lost baby teeth too!

We have so many great memories with Biscuit. She was very lovable, sweet and often mischievous! She always wanted to shake your hand and be right by your side. She was such a fast learner and had many talents. One of her favorite things to do was to catch the frisbee. She would catch it almost every time Mitch threw it! She had a little trouble when I threw it but that was mostly my fault! She always tried though! She loved Annie and would sit right outside her door when she was a baby. Annie loved her dearly and she was the perfect pet and friend to her!

I believe the old saying "All dogs go to Heaven" and know she will be wagging her tail and greet us with a big kiss one day!

She always loved to tear into her Christmas present!

She also enjoyed a good nap every now and then!

Apparently I woke her while taking the picture!

She always gave this look if her sleep was interrupted.

Like, "Excuse me, can I help you?".

A playful stinker from the start!

One of my favorites! :)

This is a picture I took about a month ago. I didn't even know it was on

the camera until I downloaded the pictures. We would sit in Mitch's

truck bed and watch Annie ride and play in the cul-de-sac.

Love you sweet girl! xo

Spring 2011

We have been busy and enjoying Spring! We have been playing outside and trying to enjoy some pretty weather before the cicadas come! Ugh, not excited about them at all! I don't see myself playing outside unless I am forced to do so. For instance, at work I will be forced to go outside and "play" while the cicadas scare my 3 year olds and I to death! Thanks to the TN State Laws! Did I mention that I am NOT excited about the cicadas?!?! Oh well, here are some pictures of my sweet girl enjoying Spring and some Easter festivities!

We went to KY for Easter because Mitch's brother and family were stopping in on their very long drive from South Carolina to Colorado! I really don't know how they survived 3 days driving with a 1 year old, a 3 year old and a 5 year old! Oh, and a 15 year old dog! Wow! It was really good to see them and spend a holiday with them though!

This was Annie discovering that the Easter Bunny had stopped

by our house and left her a basket while we were out of town!

She was a little excited!
