Northside art show, dancing pictures, beating 'da Bears and Daddy's birthday

Katie's school had an art show this past Thursday, so Katie and I went to see all the exhibits. Here Katie is outside her school (gosh, I wish she would come out of her shell!):

Here is the proud artist with her work:

We had dance pictures this weekend and Katie posed outside the studio in her beautiful ballet costume. She loves it alot.

This is Emma with her friend Anna in their Ballet costumes. They are quite adorable. Anna's big sister Ali is in Katie's class, so we see a lot of them!

Here is Emma in her too, too adorable tap outfit. When she wears it with her hair down, she looks just like Madaline. Bonjour petite fille!






One of the most exciting events of the weekend was our 13 inning defeat of Catholic High, who is /was ranked #1 in the state. Did I mention that we also beat Barbe and Northshore this year who were also ranked #1 at one time. Guess the yellow-jackets are moving up in the world. I tried to get a picture of the scoreboard after the game, but missed it. Here is a picture of Mark's boys:

Daddy celebrates his "twenty-ninth" birthday AGAIN! We brought a cookie cake to his "baseball boys" at practice, while we had Mark's favorite for dessert - white cake with chocolate icing:
