On May 21st, our "B" had her very first dance recital. I think she might have been a bit nervous the night before her big performance, but the actual day of the event she seemed so very excited. Of course, "B" had her very own cheering section/fan base present in the auditorium. The owner of the studio did something very smart, I thought. She had the dress rehearsel for the recital the day of the actual show. To me, this would be especially beneficial to the little ones who have never been on a stage before. Their first experience of being on stage would occur shortly before their actual performance, so they would know what to expect and they wouldn't have time to forget what it was like. When it came time for "B" to dance, she was totally amazing! It is truly hard to count in how many ways she surpassed our expectations. My DIL has the video up on her blog, so if you would like to take a peek at "B's" outstanding performance let me know. We are all so proud of her!
Sweet "B" ready to go to her recital!
The next big event of the month occurred on June 2nd. Our Noah graduated from elementary school.We are all so proud of him. He received a number of awards - Most Improved in Language, Artist of the Month, Top Ten in the Science Fair, Honor Roll - I'm sure I missed some. I can't believe he will be going to Middle School next year. He is still a very sweet, loving boy. I am hoping he will continue to be as he becomes a teenager. I'm betting he will.

Okay, now can any of you guess who these fine people are?
I know, I know - we haven't changed a bit, right? Allan and I celebrated our 38th anniversary on June 2. It's hard for me to believe that much time has passed, since this photo was taken. God has blessed me in so many ways with this man. I realize I am one of those very fortunate people who can honestly say I found and married my soulmate. I love you, Allan.
Tomorrow is "B's" 5th birthday party! Her actual birthday is June 21st. I can't believe she is 5 years old. I will try to post some photos of her special day next week.
Bye for now!
