Sweet and Sassy Rocks!!!


Today Allie had her very first dance competition at Thanksgiving Point. She has been so excited, but also a little nervous (not knowing what to expect). We had to be there at 9:00 and her team (Sweet and Sassy) performed their first dance around 9:30. This was her jazz dance (which was a little shaky), but they still did a great job considering it was there first time. They hurried and changed after that to perform their ballet dance. They totally kicked butt on that dance. I was so proud. Allie has a little solo part in the beginning that only she does. She has to do a leg extension and hold it for about 8 seconds. Which doesn't seem long, but she held it strong the whole time. Anyway, results are in and they took 1st PLACE in ballet and 2nd PLACE in jazz. Pretty awesome for their first competition. She was pretty excited!!! The next one is the first weekend in April in St. George.
Go Ultimate Dance...
P.S. To see who Allie is, she is front and center and does the leg extension.

BLAH!!!

I know I've been terrible at keeping up posts on our blog. But this is the latest. I basically feel like crap all the time. My house is a mess, my kids are bored and watching a lot of TV, we are eating crappy dinners most of the time and I rarely leave my house. Sounds fun!!! I'm really hoping that I will turn the corner soon with the whole morning sickness (that lasts all day) thing. I'm fourteen weeks now and am being optimistic about feeling better soon. I really NEED to. My family needs me to be back to normal. Also we have some trips coming up that I really would like to enjoy. We are going to Wendover this weekend with Rich and Misty overnight. Next weekend we are going to Idaho for a friend's baby blessing. The following weekend Allie has her first dance competition. On March 7 Allie and I are taking off to Phoenix to see Heather and Haley for a week. We will be coming back on a Wed and then Jason and I will be leaving Saturday for Vegas. Jason's work is paying for us both to go so that he can attend a conference on Sunday and Monday. I'm hoping to chill, sleep, and eat good food (if I can stomach it.) Anyway, I'm really not totally miserable, but on the verge. Hopefully things will be better soon.
