twirling pics

 the twirling team had some pictures taken recently and i thought they turned out amazing!  leigh gilbert is a very talented photographer and captured the girls beautifully.






treasured memories!

jack and his bike

 for his birthday a couple of weeks ago, jackson got a bicycle.  we let him pick it out himself and he was so excited that he rode the bicycle to the front of the store and then all the way out to the car. 
due to weather and hectic schedules, he hasn't had much time to ride the bike.  but, as soon as he did, he took off!  after about 10 minutes of riding he came to me and said, "mom...i think i've got this down now...can we take the training wheels off?"
we still have not taken the training wheels off, but i love his confidence!
