16 June, 2008

This weekend kept us busy.  We had our 2nd ward activity since we have been in charge and it went really well.  We did a 5K and pancake breakfast.  I think about 80-90 people turned out for it which made for a great amount.  

The pancake makers!
There were lots of activities for the kids.


One of the cuter ones was a "Diaper Dash" for the infants and toddlers
Berkley did OK but would have rather sucked her fingers
The men enjoyed a few volleyball games

Then in the afternoon, Haven had her 1st Dance recital!  She did great.  I was afraid she would be nervous on stage but she smiled the whole time and had lots of enthusiasm.

Since I am SO bad at hair... Jenny had to come over before and slick Haven's hair in a bun!  What would I do with out Jenny?
On stage performing




Mrs. Shirley (the girl's pre-school teacher) came to watch and brought them roses!

I feel bad that this is the only Father's Day shout out to Bry but I was sick with the flu all day yesterday.  Here is to the most fun, caring and supportive dad!  Haven and Berkley absolutely adore you!!!

They look so cute in their costumes ( and make-up! ) So grown up. I just signed Kylie up for dance for next fall - she can hardly wait!

Those looked like fun games and activities for the kids. Diaper Dash and coloring with chalk. FUN FUN!

Haven looks adorable all dressed with her bright red lipstick. The girls look so little up on stage. How did it feel being back at good old AN.

I hope you feel better soon.

Cutest costumes!! Looks like it was a busy weekend! Sorry you're feeling junky, call me if you need anything!!

Haven and Kate are so so cute in their red costumes. You gotta use that for Halloween or something. You and Bryan ROCK at being the activities chair. Nice job! I think our ward is jealous. Sorry you were sick. Need anything?

Jenny said...

Seriously! What a weekend!
Nice pic of me doing Haven's hair.
If you didn't have me, I guess her hair would have been side-swept with a gigantic bow! :)
I cried from start to finish. Even for the numbers that I didn't know anybody. What a sap I am.
Your pictures were better than mine. Send them please...

haven is so adorable--4 going on 14 too, watch out for the boys. and love berk's trademark pose with 2 fingers in, 2 out.

Drew... I know you and I were never very good at math but did you mean 2 fingers in and 3 out? She certainly does not have just 4.

I love the picture of Berkley sucking on her fingers. I sucked on those same fingers when I was little. It's like she's doing 'I love you' in sign language.

Oh, Haven looks so cute in her dance outfit! I would have killed to wear that much make up when I was little. I should have danced more!

Bummer about the flu. Wish I would have kept the girls in. The costumes are adorable. I am sure the girls did a great job! Too cute!

I'm loving the pic of Haven with her daddy, too cute and they look so much alike--more and more each time I see them! I also love the dance recital pics too! I can't wait to do that with Leda :)

Sorry about the flu :(
