This year Natalie tried out for Performing Company at Mirror Image Dance Academy and made the cut! :) This means she will be performing in multiple community events including parades. This was her first event in Greenville and they were in the parade and did a performance afterwards.
One good thing about being Alex's friend on facebook is that I can see all the pictures people post of him! :) So these are pictures I "stole" from the kids he went to camp with! :)
On August 15th, Mackenzie had her first horse show with Cali. Yes, this was just days after getting Cali to the barn! Kenz did awesome...especially showing a horse that had NEVER jumped before! :)
My family and I are located just outside of Green Bay, and are living - what I would describe as - the American dream. We have 8 acres where our 5 kiddos have room to roam, as well as horses and chickens to grow up with! We are LDS (aka Mormon) and our faith plays a big part as to how we raise our children. I tend to be a bit "crunchy" in my parenting style- I enjoy babywearing, cloth diapering (part time) and I am an advocate for the benefits of extended breastfeeding. I dabble with the idea of homeschooling as well. For my hobby, I love photography, and we own a photo announcement graphic design company which has blessed both my husband and I with the ability to work from a virtual office at times. By far, my children, my wonderful husband & my faith are the most important aspect of my life...
