Jazz Hands!




I came across my old dance costume ( as you can see it's from the early 90's.... and yet it still gives my heart a thrill... LOVE the sequinned leg warmers... sigh:) anyway.. i instantly knew who needed this sparkly gem.. MADDIE!! when i gave it to her she was sooo thrilled! she put it on and felt so special. She is always performing for us.. singing and dancing. Some of my favorites lately are her singing ALL the words to Annie's "Tomorrow"... and Little Mermaids "part of your world", and of course mama mia's "honey honey"! seriously funny! so since i did a post on Mia's fun facts, i thought i would do one for maddie too :)

I'm a runner?

I did it!! i ran my 1st 1/2 marathon!! all 13.1 miles of it!! i was super excited and nervous to run my first one but now that i have i loved it!! hopefully i will be doing more in the future :) it was supposed to snow/rain the morning of the race but luckily it was nice weather (a little chilly)... then i was greeted at the finish line by my sweet sister-in-law krissy who brought the kids with her to cheer me on :)
