Heidi Silly faces

Heidi, 3 yrs old, is in a new faze of wanting to take a picture of her doing a silly face, then see it on the camera right after you take it. She even does this with the video camera, which is really annoying. She wants to see herself by turning the screen around to watch herself making faces at the camera. So at this stage of life, it is hard to get a picture of her smiling, unless she is being really cheezy with a scrunched up nose and squinty eyes. I'm sure she'll grow out of it, but for now it is an interesting part of her quirky little personality.

Tolman Wedding

Ryan and I had the privilage of attending the wedding reception of Brooke Tolman and Cyriss... The reception was held at the Langham Hotel in Pasadena, the old Ritz hotel. It was fabulously, amazingly beautiful. My sisters Wendy and Jennifer made the huge foral arrangements in large erns that sat outside the entrance into the main reception hall. The table and chairs with all the pictures on it was right as you walked in, just before the recieving line. Of course it is amazingly fabulous again.

My little camera didn't take great pictures inside cause the lighting was dimbed, but these are a few I did take to be able to show my sister Jana Lynn, who wasn't able to attend, how beautiful everything turned out.

I wish all the best to Brooke and Cyriss as they start life together.

Lights "Pure Imagination" 2010

Naomi was in her 3rd year performing in "Lights," The showcase for Center Stage Dance Academy. This years theme was "Pure Imagination." Naomi's Tap dance was to "Putt'n on the Ritz." It was very cute. The girls in her class are in an in-between age where they did a few more difficult steps, but it was still fun and simple. Each girl had a hard time keeping a smile on thier faces cause they would concentrate on the step, or what came next. It was adorable and they pulled the routine off in the end.
Naomi was also in the Opening number. "Don't Stop Believing," the Glee version. She enjoys performing more than class time, but I think she was ready to not be at the theater so often by the time the Saterday shows rolled around. As you can tell she loves to pose in her costume.
