The big show

Peek a boo-
And there she is! Can't ever get a good pic of eveyone...but here we are!
My brother Jon was trying to force a 'smile' out of Avery for a pic with the flowers he and Jen had brought the girls. Of course, Avery thought I'd left her again when it was done because due to the sheer mass of people, it takes time to get backstage. So, she was in tears, AGAIN, and didn't feel real celebatory afterwards! What a goof. Seriously, I don't understand her phobia of me leaving her lately. I just don't get it!
Congrats after the big dance with grandma Pitcher.
Jen and Kenna! What a beautiful pic of two beautiful ladies! I love my sister Jen so much....and appreciate that she goes out of her way to make Kenna feel fabulous!
Auntie Jen makes the day! When Kenna saw Auntie Jen coming down the hall she bolted and gave her the hugest hug! Kenna has always been SUPER fond of Jen...they've got this 'girlfriend' thing going, and I LOVE IT!!! Thanks Jen for making her feel so special and loved! Jen brought the most beautiful flowers, which are now the most beautiful bouquet on my table! Should be nice next week when it SNOWS the WHOLE next week!
Dang it, didn't notice Lindsey's eyes until posting this either! Huge thanks to these guys! Kenna and Avery thought it was so fun that so many people came to watch. They felt pretty important! I love Lins and Syd....its been fun to see them grow up, as they were WAY smaller than my girls when I first started babysitting my little cousins!
This is my dad, his brother Terrell, his wife Nancy, and my mom. The other little girl is my sister Cami's oldest, Raygon. We turned in quite a showing last night. My uncle Tom and his wife Gaye, my two cousins Lyns and Syd, my brother Jon and his wife, my sister Cami, her 4 daughters and her friend Jessie, and Kenna's two little friends Taylor and Brianna, and Nate's parents, filled two entire rows of the auditorium to watch the big event!
Agghghghhhh! I didn't notice Avery's face til posting this! Oh well...These are Nate's parents. They decided to make the trip for the big night after all! We were so excited, because the girls were beside themselves when they thought that they couldn't make it! Thanks for the effort!!!
I know I'm prejudiced, but these girls are absolutely beauitiful! Its fun to see them grow up and change, from one year to the next. Their personalities are night and day, but each are tender in their own way. I love my two angels!
Whewwwww......as much as I love seeing this big performance, can I just say I'm so stinking glad its done? The girls did great-Avery's class gets all the 'oooh's and ahhhh's' because they are all tiny and darling. Kenna's class got lots of laugh and applause when they shook their bums to 'aye carumba'! Yeah....another year has come, and gone. That's a little sad when I put it that way...

How fun! The girls do look super cute in their outfits. And how nice to have so much family support and love! That will be one thing the girls will never forget.

How fun to have so many family supporters. Thanks for sharing the pics of everyone. It sure made me miss home alot. It is crazy to see how grown up Syd and linds are. It is crazy to think that my oldest is older than they were when I started babysitting them also!!

Brings back memories of my dancing years! I always had two rows of supporters in the audience and I tell you it made the world of difference for me growing up knowing I had that many people that loved me. Your girls are blessed and darling!
