A Night at the Ballet

Both DA and JR have been involved at the local dance company partnering with the girls. This is a performance year and they are doing "Scenes from Camelot". DA gets to be King Arthur and JR is a knight. There are many more dances they are involved in, but these had to have costumes made. I asked a dear friend from church to help me out. Her daughter was in ballet for many years and she made all her costumes. I was thrilled she was able to do it. As a small token of our appreciation we got her two tickets to last night's performance. Here is a picture of her with both boys.
This is King Arthur and Guenivere:

My handsome young men!

Belle had been involved quite heavily this week as well, but her costume consits of black pants, and a black shirt! She is the Assistant Stage Manager. It has been a lot of fun for the kids, but so very time consuming. I'll be glad when it's over and life returns to "normal" next week. Whatever that is!!

Graduation

Sunday afternoon was DA's high school graduation. I didn't know if I'd be able to get through it without tears, and I didn't. Since he's gone to a Catholic high school, we had Mass first, then the graduation ceremony. He had a solo during one of the songs. It was quite an honor for him. At his Senior Awards Assembly he also received the St. Joseph's Award for service to his school.

One down, six to go. We'll be having his big graduation party in a couple weeks. He has invited the whole world, so it should be interesting!

Piano Recital

We had quite a busy weekend. Jam packed, full!



Friday evening was the end of the year Piano Recital. DA, Thaddeus and Puk Puk all played. They each did a great job.

DA-18

All three of my handsome young piano men. DA with his piano teacher.

He had taken piano lessons since he was Puk Puk's age. It was a sad time for his teacher, as he is finished now. He will continue to take lessons at college though. How time does fly.

A Lovely Spring Day

Yesterday we made an impromptu visit to the Reservoir. Little Buddy's favorite pass time is to throw rocks into the water!

JR teaching Puk Puk to skip rocks across the water watching the big splash!

Belle made him a "fishing rod"
