Blessed...

We celebrated Zoe today, with her annual baptism anniversary day. She chose a strawberry bundt cake for her dessert, and it was yummy!

In the rushing around that we do each day, we love to stop and treasure these moments. We love you Zoe and feel blessed by you every day. I can't wait to see what the Lord has planned for you!

Pinocchio Pictures!

We finally got some more pictures from Pinocchio!

Such a wonderful show and so proud of my girl!!

Pinocchio, The Story of the Prodigal Son, 2015!

It's showtime again! After 3 months of rehearsals and a crazy 6-days a week schedule, it was time for Pinocchio! This is such a fun show to do...great costumes, fun choreography, and some moving moments.  Zoe had 6 parts this time around, so not quite as many changes as Nutcracker!

Red Bird, in the Workshop scene (with her freshly dyed pointe shoes!)...

 School Pas (somehow I missed pictures, so I'll have to add it later!)...

Russian Marionette...

 Shark Pas...

 Waltz of the Ahi...

and Bible Story...

 Finale...

I worked backstage for the Friday night show, and Mimi was able to come to the Saturday afternoon show. Joe and I were at 2 basketball games for Coop, and Gramps was at work, so she was on her own. Of course, she showed up with Zoe's favorites...macarons!

We made it to the Saturday night show, along with Martin and Christy. I'm so glad they were able to make the show and see Zoe dance!

We finished the weekend with a late night cast party at the studio. It's always bittersweet when a show ends. So much work, yet so much fun! I am so proud of you Zoe!!! Every show brings more maturity to your dancing, and your faith. Can't wait to see what the next few months bring!
