We are ready for more space for the kids to run and play.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am looking forward to less time driving.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
{our new house is 8 minutes from dance, Mike's office, the mall, the grocery store...everything}</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There is room for my Mom.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We can't wait to make new memories in this new home.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For realz tho...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I don't do well with the in-between.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am slightly worked up right now about the little details.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There are a lot of little details and I don't like not having them all nailed down.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We have one week between our move out date and our move in date. It should be an adventure!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Will you support us in prayer over the next two weeks?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I would so appreciate that.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I can feel the uneasiness from the littlest girls, and the restlessness from the middles {as we pack up all their toys and entertainment}, there is lots to be done and I don't want to be a crazed psycho nazi Mom as I'm asking the older girls to help. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Thanks friends!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am SO FAR BEHIND!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think Instagram has ruined me with it's instant-ness.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Or maybe it's my iPhone?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hardly sit at my computer to do much of anything these days, let alone blog.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It feels so redundant.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But I have sweet people who remind me that they like to hear what I write.</div>

I had all of the family come for Caleb's birthday this year, at his request.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He made some friends this year at hockey but when it came to his big day, he really wanted laser tag with his cousins and the dads and uncles and grandpa!</div>

For Caleb, I put one clue in each of 7 balloons around his room. Each hour he got to pop one balloon and read the clue. Some clues led him on a hunt for a gift, some suggested he go have birthday pancakes. He loved this!</div>

This year, we required that all our girls take the RAD ballet exams.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The week before the exam, our studio set up a time for the parents to come in and watch the girls do all their exam work.</div>

Cambria's birthday falls on Easter day this year.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
How special!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Caity's birthday is in April.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We decided to celebrate Cambria and Caitlyn together with one party.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Caity asked for a tea party once I had already planned an Easter egg party.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've learned it does not hurt to let the kids have an opinion so we combined the two themes.</div>

Caleb staged this moment himself. I was snapping away with both my real camera and my iPhone SIMULTANEOUSLY</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
{super-mom, I know, right?}</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I noticed him telling Caity to give him a kiss!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What a good boy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This one may need to be framed!</div>

The girls' shirts were two amazingly successful DIY projects. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I say this because crafts usually end in frustrated Mommy and kids or spilled paint.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Or both.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I chose two projects I found online.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Mailee's shirt was inspired by a tutorial at <a href="http://thepleatedpoppy.com/2013/02/diy-hand-painted-valentines-day-shirts-a-giveaway/">The Pleated Poppy</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It turned out so cute.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I like to give the kids a choice. Each of my kids is so different.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I wasn't surprised that Mailee picked the more precise, time consuming project.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This suits her personality.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She did so well making each dot perfect.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The other girls' shirts were a fun new adventure with freezer paper </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and a fantastic tutorial at <a href="http://hazelandcompany.blogspot.ca/2013/01/the-polka-dotty-heart-top-tutorial.html">Hazel and Company</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was too busy helping kids remember not to eat the paint to take a bunch of pictures during the process but click on the links above to get two very complete tutorials!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Making the big heart shirts with the two little girls was a breeze thanks to Erin's brilliant idea of covering the ENTIRE shirt with paper except for the heart.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It worked like a charm.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
TIPS:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-If you live in Canada, you can buy freezer paper at Superstore. {not at Walmart, or any of the grocery stores I tried}</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-I cleaned the girls up and sent them to play once I could tell they were getting bored. I then took the liberty of perfecting their creations by adding a few dabs where needed :)</div>
<br />
**disclaimer: I did give Caleb the option of doing this project but he chose a box of avengers Valentines instead of a shirt. Cute boy. He was very sweet to keep his eye on the project and compliment the ladies on their finished products:)Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14812213687657839629noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5100066977920099960.post-7407175267649394122013-02-09T09:25:00.000-08:002013-02-09T23:11:17.289-08:00Ballerina Toes<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

We've been driving to dance for a lot of years. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We've logged a lot of hours at the studio.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All my hot and tropical vacation fund money goes to classes and slippers!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Mikayla has been working so hard this year.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As a parent, it is really exciting to see a child reach goals and set new ones.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She is already accomplishing things I only dreamed about doing!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This year she got pointe shoes in ballet.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Apparently they get thrashed quickly</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
{along with the dancer's pretty feet}</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So we decided to take some photos while the shoes are still lookin' good.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Consider these my hot and tropical vacation pictures...</div>

Did I tell you?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Caleb has been playing hockey this winter.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He is loving it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm still not completely sold on the length of time it takes to get the gear on and off, or the stinky-ness that wafts from the change room after the game but I love to see my little guy get out there and play!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I am pretty sure his biggest goal in the game is beating his teammates to center ice for the face off.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He's very motivated.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I guess he really likes this part of the game:)</div>

So cute! Some of the guys on his team are 4 years old.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They are tiny!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lots of slipping and sliding.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Caleb is one of the older kids on the team.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He has been doing really well and we are very proud of his work ethic.</div>

Caleb's team is the Hawks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After every game the coach picks a player of the game (Hawk Star) and gives the star the Hawk Box.</div>

Does it snow where you live?</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's such a beautiful experience to see everything be transformed by a sparkly white blanket of fresh snow.</div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As a kid growing up in California, snow was something we intentionally drove to for the sole purpose of "going to the snow".</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There were "bibs", "moon boots" and gloves involved.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Oh and chains were required to get us there.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was a production and at the end of the very long, fun but extremely cold and tiring day we would come home to a bare driveway and pack the snow gear up for the next planned snow day.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Not here people.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When we get home we shovel the PILES of fresh snow off our driveway before we go inside to make dinner. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And the snow gear lives in the entry way for 6 months of the year.</div>

{we have an advent quilt. In past years I have filled it with little presents but this year I stuffed a note with an activity for the day written on it. All the activities you see above were announced to the kids in the quilt on the appropriate day. Some days, the kids were given a family gift..this one was a new Christmas CD. Another day it was a new family game.}</div>

<br />
Today I was approached by a Banmanland blog reader at Michael's! She knew me by name and asked how the family was doing.<br />
And she said reading this blog was inspiring.<br />
How nice!<br />
Apparently, that was just the encouragement I needed to finally figure out the storage issue and start posting again:)<br />
<br />
I wish I had thought to ask her name.<br />
Thank you for taking the time to say hello, it sure meant a lot to me. <br />
<br />
This blog is a way for me to document our lives, share with the far away family, and also connect with others. My prayer is that it would be a little light in this crazy world. A reminder that faith and love and family should always come first. An encouragement toward thankfulness and appreciation of God's gifts in those around you and using the ones He's blessed each of us with individually. Lots of vulnerability and honesty instead of just a bunch of perfect pictures because comparison is such a treacherous tool of destruction. Each of us has our own strengths, gifts and purpose!! And maybe sometimes just words and photos from the trenches of a busy family life. <br />
<br />
Why am I typing this?<br />
I don't know, seems like the start of a new year is a good time to remind myself what the goal is here.<br />

Through Creator's, Mikayla got the opportunity to be a part of the Christmas Eve services at Trinity Church. She had a fantastic time being a part of a big production. They had 6 services in all along with many rehearsals. She has had quite a few opportunities to dance outside the studio this year and she loves it! This one was great practice in front of a HUGE crowd:) Here are a few of the church's photographs...( couldn't resist posting these because they are great quality and I have been resorting to iphone pics so much these days!)</div>

Have you gotten your "Christmas card photos" yet?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you bother?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think it's worth the "hastle"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
{believe me, it takes a lot of work to make sure everyone is in clean clothes that kind of "go" and not everyone is always a willing participant...if you know what I mean...let's just say there are always a few "the quicker you smile the sooner it'll be done"'s heard}</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even so, it's something I get excited about every year!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Looking at the pics tonight, I'm thrilled to have my family frozen in time.</div>

Last Thursday the big girls and I, along with Tammy and Jenaya, went to the Carrie Underwood concert. It was awesome!<br />
<br />
Grandpa Russ treated my fall birthday girls to the tickets. Mike treated us to a fabulous stay at the River Rock and Terri, Linda and Mike provided childcare for the three C's.<br />
<br />
The girls were well prepared with cute fan shirts and a memorized playlist of all the songs she was going to be singing.<br />
<br />

So right off the bat, the kids notice a gigantic copy of Blue Nude.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ya. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I guess I didn't really think this one through.</div>

Pretty much they were traumatized by their first sight at the museum.</div>

"Quiet", "calm" and "don't touch" are not words in their vocabularies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And we were at the art museum.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Mike spent most of the visit out front with the small fries.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But I loved the exhibit.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was an art history minor in College and I still really enjoy it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I can't quite put together a fancy enough sentence to express my thoughts here.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Simply?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I miss being able to look at, ponder, study and appreciate art.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I guess I thought taking the kids to see some of my favourite artist's work would inspire all of us.</div>

Right about here is when a guy in a suit jacket with an earpiece came up and told me to stop taking pictures.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Awesome.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It wasn't the loud 3 year old or the boy-who-has-to-touch-everything that got us busted at the museum.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was miss art history minor herself.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Culture fail.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For the most part anyways.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I felt a glimmer of interest from a few of the girls and I am hopeful that we still have a future in art appreciation:)</div>
