Another Dance and Teamwork

Today's prompt was actually about what type of blogging you enjoy most. Well I like to read so many different styles. I only know how to blog my way...short, heartfelt stories and sometimes some pics. So....

Last night was another dance for one of our kiddos. Tai and friends had a dance at the zoo school and they looked fabulous. I love Tai's style and I adore her friends. They are a really great group of kids and we could not be happier that she has them and they have her. 

Tai and Lex got ready here and then 2 of the boys, Keaton and Timo, got dropped off here. Rythm did Tai's hair and helped her get ready. The dance was early so I didn't get to see them before they left. :( The kids then left (I LOVE THAT THEY CAN DRIVE THEMSELVES) and they picked up Tori and Will.

A good time was had by all! (Well, I think so anyway...I've only seen Tai!)












This afternoon Genna and I decided that we could totally handle the leaf blower/sucker on our own. So a trip to Ace's and we were set. We got the right cord and leaf bags and we knew what needed to be done. 

We started on our own and realized that it was going to take us a VERY long time if nobody volunteered to help. So I did what any good mom would do and told the boys they had to help! Trey and Ariez came out and the neighbor boy got extra supplies to help us too. We were really rocking then. Granted they didn't volunteer, but they got into it soon enough.


Steve got home from work and much to his surprise we were really making progress! Rey was on her rollerblades and we had her and the neighbor girl picking up sticks and any trash. In really no time at all we had 10 bags full of leaves at the curb and we were as done as we were going to be today! Honestly, if the extra helpers hadn't come out, Genna and I would still be out there on maybe bag 2 or 3. Teamwork is AWESOME!!

Oh...I don't have a picture but Tai said that with all the dirt on me it looked like I had reverse Michael Jackson disease!! After a quick shower, everyone was rewarded for their hard work with Chinese buffet for dinner. Sushi and crab legs for me!

It was a great day! My magnolia tree is blossoming and my peonies are coming up too. Spring is most certainly in the air!
