T-Ball

We signed Abby up for Hamer t-ball this year and she has been having a blast. They don't play any games, just practice but it's still fun to see how excited the kids get when they hit the ball. It's so cute.

She is a pretty good little hitter

Fun times. :)

5k



This is me finishing my first 5k at the Teton Dam race. I'm so proud. I didn't finish fast by any means but I jogged the whole time even though the first mile+ was uphill and the week of the 5k was the first time I had actually jogged 3 miles. It was fun. I can't wait to do another and now I REALLY want to do a 10k. We will see. My first goal is to run a faster 5k. :) (By the way, I think that shirt is the ugliest color! :P )

My Little Dancer

Abby had a dance recital about 3 weeks ago and she did so good!! I am so proud of my little dancer. Her teacher is pretty awesome too. I can't believe how much patience she has with the little kids.
Abby learned two dances (okay, actually 4 but the other 2 she learned in a couple weeks and they were big group dances.) Her first one was a jazz dance (sorry I don't have a picture of her in that costume) and the second was a ballet dance. The videos were too big to put on my blog but they are on facebook except you can only watch them if you are my friend. :)

Circus

Thanks to all the rain we had been having, Tyrel was able to go with us to the circus last Monday. It was so much fun and even Tyrel was really impressed by the performers although he said this was the last circus he would go to for awhile. :) Some of my pictures are really dark and I didn't get pictures of all the performers but they did some pretty cool stuff.

Abby got to ride on an elephant before it started. I was afraid she was going to be too scared to ride alone (I didn't want to pay the extra fee for me to ride!) but she had a blast.


Scary! Especially when it started to whobble.

GIVE ME MORE!!! NOW!!!! (ya, she got cut off from the good stuff)

Lady riding the elephant (don't really know what the purpose of her riding them was) The guy walking by them made them do all the tricks.
