Happy Anniversary!


On June 26, 1993 this exciting adventure began!  We decided to celebrate our anniversary two days early since we are in Flordia!  18 years strong!

More Florida Fun!


 Feeding the fish in the harbor.
Red Snapper!
 Sunset dolphin cruise.
 One of the many dolphins we spotted!
Oh no, look who's the captain now!  She drove under the bridge!

 Love fest!
 More of the love fest!
OMG, that's Slash's guitar!
Our rocker!

Life's a Beach!

The girls love the sand and surf! We are enjoying our days at the beach and evenings in the pool or going crab hunting.  We all enjoyed a seafood feast the other night and last night we went to Hard Rock Cafe.  The dolphin cruise was exciting!  We saw quite a few dolphins.  The pictures say more than my words could!  We are getting ready to spend our last day at the beach and pool.  Homeward bound tomorrow!

Happy Father's Day!

We are all enjoying Lou's Father's Day present...the beach!  We are having a blast on our first full day in Miramar, Fl.  Buttercup couldn't get enough of the ocean and Snapdragon couldn't get enough of the beach!  This is our first family vacation as a family of four!

Choo, Choo Cha Boogie..Let's Ride the Crazy Train

Snapdragon danced in her second recital and Buttercup danced in her tenth!  They are both beautiful girls and beautiful dancers.  Both girls were more confident in their stage presence this year.  In fact, bet you wouldn't guess it, but Snapdragon can't get enough of the stage and the spotlight. (I hope you can sense the sarcasim in that statement.)  Buttercup is really lighting up the stage with her smile and strong dancing.  I love that she LOVES to tap dance!
This year Snapdragon was a martian in "Matian Hop"with a few cartwheel solos and a little engine that could in "Choo, Choo Boogie".  Buttercup perfomed an amazing tap solo to "Forget You" and a tap duet with her good friend to "The Time".  Buttercup also performed a jazz duet with her friend to "Crazy Train".  I enjoyed teaching Buttercup's class this year.  Can't wait to see what next year holds!

Summer Fun!




Just had to share how the girls are enjoying their summer together so far.  Buttercup has had to do some babysitting and the contracts are something she created in my absence.  I think we might have a lawyer on our hands.  Who knew? (If you want to read them, click on the picture to enlarge it.)
Meanwhile, I am frantically getting ready for the dance recital and preparing for Florida. I am attending a two day workshop next week so I need to start getting organized now.  Can't wait to hit the beach!
