Dance Festival

Mike and I enjoyed going to the annual elementary school Dance Festival to watch the kids. Unfortunately Nora started feeling sick at the last minute and had to go home, but we were able to see Sam and Evie dance with their grades.

The kindergarten did a Mexican Dance


The 2nd grade did a Hawaiian dance

Nora's Tropical Birthday Party

For her 10th birthday, Nora wanted a tropical themed party. 

Dorie found a new hide out while we were decorating





Beth and Reece brought some awesome dolphin balloons

Decorating the cupcakes

V was not a huge fan of her grass skirt and lei, but she sure did look cute in them!





The menu was : macadamia nuts, lime tortilla chips with mango peach salsa, coconut bites, banana bread bites, tropical fruit salad, green salad with orange vinaigrette, coconut chicken patties, Hawaiian BBQ pulled pork sliders, lime cupcakes with cream cheese frosting, pina coladas and strawberry margaritas. 







Sadie loves getting cuddles from Grandpop

Dorie loves attention

Opening presents

Ummm

Dorie with her buddy, Reece




The Madisons gave Nora Guatemalan sandals because she loved V's so much. Now they are twinners

Time to sing to the birthday girl




Someone's a little tired...

Cute V loved playing with the sunglasses


Happy 10th birthday, Nora!
