Cheer Camp!



I am so excited to post that Alex is attending a cheer camp tomorrow for the first time! She is so excited to go, learn cheers, stunts, tumbling and perform. I will post pics and hopefully a video. My little girl is getting so big! Wish us luck! Go Team!

Update: Alex loved cheer camp! I am so proud of her. She wanted to try something new and she has seen mommy cheering before in videos, so it was very intriguing. She was a little nervous about performing in front of everyone. But as you can tell from the video, she did great! I gave her a little tip, if she forgot a move all she had to do was smile. No one would notice! We asked how she liked it. She said she loved it! We asked her what her favorite part was.....EVERYTHING!

My Sweet Girl!

On Tuesday, David and I will be celebrating our 8 year wedding anniversary. Alex has thought that it is a great idea to have a wedding anniversary party for us. Any reason to have and plan a party! She is my girl! It is so sweet of her to love us that much to have a party for us.

We keep telling her that in 2 years on our 10 year anniversary, that is the big one. We will be going somewhere tropical and celebrating.....we hope!

P.S. To my wonderful husband - Happy Anniversary Sweets! I love you!

UPDATE: Alex did a wonderful job on our party. She made the cake, planned the menu, did the decorations, made the guest list. Really if she wasn't 5, and had money and could drive, she could have planned the whole thing by herself. But she did need Nana and Granny's help. She did get very angry with forgetful mommy when I forgot to bring her fancy dress with me, so she could change. I improvised and took some jewelry from Grandma's jewelry box and dressed her up. Complete with a fancy pin, bracelet, and clip-on earrings. Excuse the picture of the old married couple. We used to be so much cuter!
