Weekend in review...

So another weekend has passed - here's what it looked like according to my iPhone!

Tysie had a total of 11 hours of chorography between Friday, Saturday & Sunday.  She's in 7 competitive dance routines this season: 4 jazz, 3 lyrical - 3 of them are small groups and 3 of them are junior routines which she was SO excited about. She even has 3 in a higher level and the rest intermediate level!  We love this time of year at dance because the routines are taking shape and she anxiously awaits chorography.  She loves when she gets little featured parts of a dance like a lift, a turn, or a trick.  It's amazing to me how she can remember so many routines.  Even now in the car a song comes on and she'll bust out a routine from 3 seasons ago.  Crazy.  Anyway, the routines this year so far are just awesome! Our studio is seriously the best and has amazing teachers.  Can't wait for costumes and seeing the final outcome in the early spring.




Here's Tysie and the Edge Mini Large Jazz group! Cuties!!

Kenzlie's social calendar was pretty full Saturday.  She had a Birthday Party and an End of the AYSO Season Soccer party to attend!
 
First up was the birthday party and it was ADORABLE! Birthday girl chose the Clay Café in Visalia!  We held Tysie's birthday party there a few years back so Kenzlie was looking forward to returning and adding to her ceramic collection. 


Here are a few of the party guests!

Everything was themed with Unicorns! Check out the cupcake toppers!

NINJA MERMAIDS SOCCER TEAM!

Look at these adorable hoodies made by my dear friend Sara at CCB Designs
She can seriously make ANYTHING and such great work at a great price! Thanks Sara!!

Kenzlie had the BEST Coach this season.  She and her entire family were so good! This isn't a great picture, but Kenzlie is holding her piece of the team banner.  They made these Ninja Mermaids from felt and other craft supplies!  Perfect traditional soccer banner! Team sponsored by Taxes by David

DATE NIGHT!
So at the last second our babysitter mentioned she was free Saturday night so after the soccer party Josh and I decided to go do SOMETHING.  We like the traditional dinner and a movie, but then discussed bowling... Then I remembered I'd heard there was a Comedy show showing at the Fox Theater Downtown Visalia were Josh and I were married!  So we headed down town not even knowing what the show was.  We saw the name in the lights and quickly googled  GIs of Comedy. I have a brother who is a Marine so we thought, why not!?!  They were great!!! We purchased tickets for somewhere in the middle of the theater at the door.  When we entered the usher asked if we'd like to sit in the front... "Sure".  After we grabbed a couple beers we found out seats.  The music was playing as everyone found their seats.  We were surrounded by a pretty eclectic group.  Lots of military, a few groups of women clearly enjoying a girls night out and lots of groups of couples.  Just before the show began I told Josh, "I think comedians like to pick on the people who sit near the front."  This was our first time attending a comedy show.
Sure enough not once but twice two different comedians called out Josh.  Luckily they were talking about had buff he was!  We laughed our asses off all night.  The comedians were great.  Just what we needed.  I recommend looking them up and seeing them live in Sothern California when you can.  Good show. 

See how close we were!?!?  It was cool being right back where we were married too!  We love any chance to go to the Fox!

Sunday Fun Day!

Lastly Sunday was pretty mellow!  We had a Tuff Shed built over the weekend so Josh and I (mostly Josh) will be slowly moving stuff there from the garage.  Our goal is to make out garage not look like an episode of hoarders and to stop repurchasing things we have, but just can't find!! It's a process - I'll keep you posted!!

I'll try to take more photos!  The kids played with the neighbors, they jumped in the trampoline, played with Brynlie's new Playdough kit for hours, and even went to church!!  It was a great weekend!!!
