Who's a brace face now???

Dr. Tadej gets another Judd mouth to fix! This time it's Miss Hannah.  She had an expander put in a few months ago and now it is time to put on some braces.

BEFORE

AFTER

Just a typical afternoon......

Here we are driving home from dance.  We like to turn up the radio and sing along.  I wanted to have a picture to remember all the days we spent together driving.  Two days a week I pick Haley up from school.  Hannah is already home and in the car with me. I have plates of dinner ready for the girls to eat.  The girls dance from 4:00 - 9:00pm  on those two days.  The other days they dance just two hours.  That is a total of 14 hours of dancing a week.  Whew!!  And they LOVE it!! That does not even count the few extra saturday rehearsals they may get called in for.  This year the girls were invited to join Tribute Dance Company.  It is the competitive group at their dance studio.  This is why they are required to take so many dance classes per week.    

Hannah just found out that she was chosen to be Jiminy Cricket in the ballet recital rendition of Pinocchio.  She is over the moon excited!!!!!

winter garden

I had to document this gorgeous broccoli that came out of our garden.  We had about five meals worth before it was gone, and boy did we enjoy it.  Nothing like eating things when they are freshly picked!!

Book of Mormon read-a-thon

Haley joined some of the girls from church for a two day Book of Mormon read-a thon.  They all brought their pillows and blankets, and some snacks and set forth to read the whole book.  Russ and I were invited to be guest readers, so we joined the girls and each read a chapter to them and then discussed it a little bit.  What a great spirit that we felt!
