After a brief break....

Last week was CRAZY. Hence my brief break from blogging. It started out on Tuesday with one secretary on vacation, and 43 cases to be scheduled for following week. Which normally is not a big deal, that is unless the copy machine is broken for two days. It threw off my entire weekly schedule.

Next it was DANCE. On Tuesday night the girls had company showcase, which was the last dance performance of the year, and after helping the girls through six costume changes and trying to entertain Mark who would basically rather do anything than have to suffer through a dance performance, it left me feeling as if I had just completed an Iron Man competition.

Oh, but dance was not over on Tuesday, it continued on to Wednesday. Wednesday began two days of summer intensive, which is where the girls are at the dance studio for the good part of the day, learning their dances for company try outs. Summer intensive consumed us on Wednesday and Thursday. Laure then had try outs for ballroom dance late Thursday afternoon, with Katie having jazz tryouts Friday morning, and Lauren having Jazz and Hip Hop try outs Friday afternoon.

We concluded the week Saturday with an end of the year pool party with all our dance friends.

Did I mention that Lauren also had an activity for Activity Days that required me to drive her up to Hobble Creek canyon on Wednesday late afternoon?

In spite of the craziness, we decided to ring in summer by breaking out the kiddie pool. Mark and Katie thought it was just grand. So from Wednesday to Friday every chance they could get they stripped off their play clothes and put on their swim suits.

They were in and out of this pool ALL day long. (And we have the sunburn to prove it)
On Friday we went across the street to a real pool.
Yes it was a crazy week, but it was a good week!

Yes, the colors of your kiddie pool are irresistable.....I think I'd join them if I were there!
