Brayden's Bball Game

As the girls and I left the dance competition we all decided we wanted to rush and watch Brayden's bball game. They've been strict on the amount of spectators each player can have ever since Covid hit so I haven't been able to make it to many games. They let us all in and we loved watching Brayden lead his team for a win! I love watching the kids support each other and I know it means a lot to them when their siblings are there cheering them on.

 

Dance America - Day 1

Another weekend...another dance competition! This was another one for Brielle and Britney. Luckily this competition was only about 12 minutes from our house so Josh and Brayden were able to come watch their solos! Britney had to get up at 6:30am to be ready in time but she was a trooper. She did great too (even if she did mirror 1/3 of her dance!) I ran back and forth so Brielle could sleep in a little longer, which worked out great. So far this is the best Brielle has done on her solo! After the awards were done and both girls were finished for the day...no one wanted to leave! We ended up staying for 5 more hours watching all their friends dance throughout the day. All 4 girls have the best friends at dance and love being with them and with each other.

Britney's 6th Birthday!

 What a fun and exhausting day we had! Britney has a playgroup on Tuesdays so I decided to take the whole playground to Airborne to play. They loved it! After school I dropped the 3 other girls off to dance and took Britney for an afternoon full of surprises. We picked up her best friend who she hasn't seen for 6 months bc of Covid! She was SO excited! We headed to Gardner Village to visit their animal farm. It was pretty cold, but the girls loved it. All Britney has been wanting to do lately is see a "real life llama" and boy did she get her wish! She got to hang out with 2 llamas and snuggle them all she wanted. She was adorable and had the time of her life. After feeding a few more animals and going for a pony ride we headed to Classic Fun Center where Audrey and Britney played and played for hours. We left just in time to drop Audrey off and pick up all the girls from dance. We grabbed the boys and headed to her chosen dinner at Zupas...she likes the ck strips and of course the chocolate strawberries. We went to my in laws for presents and cake, then headed home to crash! Happy birthday miss Brit!!!

Gotta Move Dance Competition

Britney's first dance competition! She finally gets to dance! She's been going to her sisters' competitions for weeks and has been patiently waiting for her turn. This competition was in Ogden with solos on Friday and team competition on Saturday. Since I get Marriott hotel rooms for super cheap with my brother's discount we decided to stay overnight and have some fun while we are up there. We headed up Friday morning so Britney and Brielle could do their solos. They both did great! Brielle did much better this week and wasn't scared like she was last week. We went to IHOP for dinner, swam for a few hours in the evening, and spent the rest of the time at the competition watching their friends dance. Saturday both girls did great with their teams! It was a fun weekend and we made it home totally exhausted.
