The Wormery

Imagine the joy of a 5 year old girl, who loves digging for worms, when she recently saw on TV a segment with instructions on how to build your very own WORMERY!!!

Needless to say, there was no getting around it, the Wormery had to be built! Last night, Linden was the brains - telling Daddy what they needed to do next, and Daddy was the braun, digging for the worms and then calling Linden to do the honor of placing the worms in their new home!

Forget a doll house, our little girl just loves her new WORM House!!!!!


Here she is with the beloved Wormery....


The funny faces of Linden.....she'll always give you a funny face, if you'll just take the picture. CLICK!

Dress Rehearsal - Dance Recital 2008

Well after Linden "cried" off her make-up 3 times, because she HATES putting on her tights...envision "fix mommy, fix!" with tears and mascara running down the cheeks, we finally made it to the Dress Rehearsal. Linden's friend Teagan is in her class and so it was Chris and I and the two girls off to rehearse!


We're at the rehearsal, and the girls are just waiting for their turn on stage. The girls are showing off their poses that they used for their Tap Dance Portraits!


Once we got there, we were able to get a picture of Linden and Teagan with Lydia and Ella as well. Lydia and Ella live right across the street (their little sister Ava didn't want to be left out of the spotlight), and Linden just loves them. Lydia, Linden and Teagan are all in the same class. It was a really fun day, and a great memory since Lydia, Ella and Teagan will all be moving away in the coming months. We are really sad for Linden to be losing such good friends.



Here it is, the performance you've all been waiting for....Lights, Camera, Action!!! Linden is the last girl just barely on the stage on the left side of the video, she ends up being 4th from the end on the left. Just click on the arrow at the bottom of the screen to play the video.


All Together !! With their teacher, Miss Heather. Linden is in the back row, second from the left.


Linden has told me that she is DONE with dancing.....she just can't take the tights :-)
