On a roll....

2 days in a row! WAHOO! Technically same day if you notice the time that I posted last was 2 am!! That's what happens when you can't sleep. You get a wild hair and decided to revamp your blog.

Lots has changed since May. Karlee made the dance team with her high school and we have been a very busy family since the day her name was put on that list.  We did a TON of fundraising over the summer. Karlee got sponsors, and raised over $1000 dollars for her "account". Dance is very expensive and we are very thankful for the opportunities to fund raise. I spend a lot of time at the volunteering with the team. I spent many summer days at car washes and can drives. While it was hard work and took up a lot of my summer, it was extremely worthwhile and rewarding. Hearing the "thanks mom for all your help", makes it all worth it!!

Miss Karlee has grown in the last 5 months as a dancer. She has over come her performance fears and is really working on her showmanship. She practices hard everyday. They have practice Monday through Friday from 6-7:15, Tuesday's and Wednesday's from 3pm - 6pm and every other Saturday. She tried out for category (Jazz) and got a spot, and just last week she tried out for the State team and made it!! She will letter in Varsity her freshman year!! We couldn't be prouder!  However, needless to say, on top of going to school and trying to have somewhat of a social life she is a tired dancer! And, I am a tired mom!!

Post number 2 down! Let's see if I can keep it up this time!
