Lil' Stepper Dance Clinic

The High School High Steppers were holding a Lil' Stepper Dance Clinic as a fundraiser for their program so Kennadee batted her cute eyelashes at Daddy and convinced him to let her do it. She was so excited to do it and couldn't stop talking about it for the week before she did it. The day came and she went and did the clinic but when it came time to perform in front of the parents she got really nervous and wanted to go home. You can see it in her face in the pictures below.






The other part of this clinic was that they were able to perform at tonight's High School Football game. She got to dance on the field and then sit up in the stands with the High Steppers and cheer! She had so much fun and was sad when it was time to leave. I am so proud of her. I was really nervous at the beginning of the game that she would be too scared to do it but she opened right up and had a blast. 





Waiting on the sidelines to go onto the field to do their dance.


Here is a video of her dancing on the field. She is in the back towards the left with the blonde pigtails. 
 
( You may want to turn down the sound because the wind was blowing really hard into the mic)
After they danced they went and stood on the sides of where the players were coming out and then they came back up to sit with the Hight Steppers and cheer for the players. Here are a few pictures of her cheering. I think that was her favorite part.

Here is a video of them cheering when the team scored a touchdown:
All in all she did a great job and had a blast! I'm so glad she did this!

1st Grade Photo

Is this not the cutest little first grader you've ever seen???? I love this girl!! I am so pleased with the way these pictures turned out!

First Day Of First Grade

  Well the first day of school was actually a month ago so I decided that I should probably make a post about it. I'm probably going to say this every year but I can't believe that my little girl is already in first grade!! We practiced reading and writing all summer so that she could be more prepared for school. It was amazing to see how much of a difference there was in her reading skills at the end of the summer.

"Mom don't take my picture I'm eating!"

1st day of school hair

Backpack pose. So cute!

Ready to go!

Well hopefully we have a succesful year of school. I can't believe she's growing up so quickly!!  I Love this girl so much!!!

Pontoon Boat

One of the days we were in Michigan we rented a Pontoon Boat and went up and down the Channel that connects Lake Michigan to some of the smaller lakes. We even went out onto the edge of Lake Michigan but with a pontoon boat we weren't allowed to go out very far on the lake. We had such a good time though!



 Lee driving the boat
 Russell chillin' 


 Kennadee loved pretending to surf. It was so cute!

 Helping Daddy drive the boat

 It took a lot of convincing to get Kennadee to get into the water.




 Once Becky came up with the ingenious idea to wrap the orange lifejackets around their waists to use as a floatie Kennadee loved being out there.




 The girls put their swim coverups over their life jackets it was so funny!
 Becky and Lee fell asleep for quite awhile.

We had such a blast on the boat. It was so fun!!
