Happy Birthday to Me!

April 25th was my 41st birthday. On Sunday night we decided to go to Grimaldi's Pizzeria for dinner. It was good New York style, thin crust, coal oven baked pizza.





And of course we had to follow it with some yummy cheesecake.



After dinner we headed over to Waterway Square to play in the fountains.




You're only as old as you feel. So in order to stay feeling young, you gotta have fun!

Tapping Toes

Here is video I took last week at Kathryn's dance class. This is their tap number, "All I Want for Cjhristmas is My Two Front Teeth. Too cute!

Buckalew Spring Choir Concert

April 8 was the Buckalew Spring Choir Concert. Rebecca has really enjoyed singing in choir this year, and learned a lot of new songs I have never heard. The choir did a great job that night. Here are some videos from the performance. Rebecca is the last person on the right on the front row.

"If You Dance"

They did this song back in the fall. This time they added more parts.


"Joshua Fit the Battle"



"Dona Nobis Pacem"

This song is sung in Latin. Pretty impressive for 3rd & 4th graders. It was also very special to Mr. Kelly, who sings it to his children as as lullaby.


"You'll Never Guess What I Saw"



"One Bottle Pop"

This was a fun song.


"The Copy Scat Rag"

Another fun song. Who did better? The boys or the girls? You know where my loyalties lie!


"Sing America, Sing!"



"Star Spangled Banner"

And the grand finale!

Pretty in Pink

Kathryn is still loving dance. Yesterday she got her costume for her ballet/jazz dance. (The rest of the class got theirs last week.) She got to try it on and wear it until the end of class.

Almost There

Kathryn has been taking dancing this year, and really enjoys it. Her class has been working hard to get ready for their recital in May. Here is a video of her ballet/jazz number, "Almost There," taken during a recent class.
