Rosie's first dance recital...

On August 10th, Rosie had her 1st dance recital...

Dance classes were her birthday present, and she had a blast and

will be continuing into the fall!

 This is the trophy case...everytime we walked into the studio

Rosie said that those trophies all had her name on them because

she won them all! :)

 Her first dance...Party in the USA by Miley Cyrus

 Rosie's teacher Cara is on her right...

We were all so proud of her...she is turning out to be

quite the little dancer!!!!!!

Rose and Travis at the Science Museum

I took Rose and Travis to the Science Museum in July to

the tugboat attatched to the museum.
