The Zumwalt Family: It's Show Time!

Whew! It has been pretty busy around here lately! Last week was jam packed with Kenadie's last day of 3K, end of the year program at her school, dance recital, which included two additional practices, then followed by Mother's Day! It was great fun, and I made sure to "take it all in", but a little glad that we have had nowhere to be today! Or, for the rest of the week for that matter :) Our laundry basket got a little over looked, so today it's getting some MUCH needed attention!

Kenadie had the MOST fun at her dance recital! It was such a great show, and all of the little dancers did such a wonderful job! The theme of the show was Toy Shop, and it didn't disappoint! Kenadie had two dances: her tap that they were "All Dressed Up" and in their ballet they were jack-in-the-boxes. Too cute for words, I tell ya!

Kay Kay, I DO NOT know what we would do without you!!! She was practically my personal assistant throughout ALL last week! Aaron, do ya think we could just add Kay Kay in to our budget and keep her on all year long? Oh, what am I saying, I practically have her at my beckon call year round! Let's just say I have it made :) Now, if she just didn't have to go to work everyday :)

For their ballet, they jumped out of these boxes on little trampolines, like a jack-in-the-box. I think this was her favorite part of the whole recital :) Now, let's go over a little dance recital etiquette!!! We are allowed to take pictures during the rehearsal, but not during the recital. So, all of these pics were mostly from the dress rehearsal the night before. If you find yourself at a dance dress rehearsal, and you are sitting by the parents of a dancer who is taking her tiny quick turn of jumping out of the jack-in-the-box, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES do you get up and leave, having to cross in front of her camera or her husband's cam corder with your whole family!!!!! RUDE!!! I'm sure they didn't know it was my child's turn, but geez people, if a lady is snapping pics like a mad woman to catch her child's every move, take notice please!!! Yes, I was just a tad mad!!! And no, I wasn't happy with the ONE picture I got of her jumping out of the box, ugh!!! This was all I got :( There! I feel better now :)

Here are where the pics start that were from the actual recital day, and here I am feeling like what I imagine a pageant mom to feel like! It's fun to do all of this once a year, just don't think I have much more than that in me :)
