Tiny Dancer

Clarissa had a dance recital on Saturday.  She really enjoys it and is so cute up on stage. She doesn't seem to have any stage fright at all. We're really proud of her. Here are some photos and videos from her dance day.

Piano Man

Elijah played in his first piano recital yesterday.  He's only been playing for a couple of months, but seems to be picking it up.  He said he wasn't nervous and he got up there and did a great job. We're really proud of him.

Here's the video:

Announcing his number, "Sailor Jack."

Focused on the tune.

Carson's 9th

Happy birthday to Carson, who turned 9 a couple of weeks ago.  Can't believe we have a 9-year-old. He's such a great kid and is really growing up and showing signs of becoming a responsible young man. We hope to have him mowing the lawn this summer, just don't tell him. He had a fun birthday party with lots of guests. He seemed to get most the things he wanted, primarily the Skylanders game for the Wii and lost of Skylander guys. 


He got a BYU pillow pet.  He's still a big BYU fan.

Reading one of those Wimpy Kid books.

He asked Christina to make a Wii remote cake and she came through as usual.

Out go the candles. 

This was taken last weekend on the Lagoon Trail.  He was using this log as some sort of weapon.
