2011 Spring Concert

For these concerts, I am outside sitting with my 5th graders, 'keeping my eye' on them until it is their turn to perform. So I usually covertly sneak backstage so I can watch my own kids performances. That's why these are such 'great' shots! Can you pick out my two girls? I couldn't get any of Jacob cause he was hiding from me. Not one open shot of him...I'm sure he's so disappointed!

Sofia picked out these frames at her latest eye appt. The minute she put them on I wanted them off...she looks so grown up in these!! I do not let her wear makeup yet, this is just for play, but even without the makeup on, she looks like an older version of herself...not ready for her to grow up this fast! What a cutie for sure!

a new look for isabel

New glasses for the little sis. She looks pretty darn cute. She picked them out all by herself. I wasn't sure about the DARK frames, but she's happy and isn't that what it's all about?
