Memorial Day 2009


We had a nice Memorial day, today. We started off our day with a visit to a local convalescent home to dance for the residence there. I wasn't sure how the kids would take to it, how they would behave but surprisingly they were really good and friendly and after warming up a little to everyone they walked around and said Hi and talked to different people. Not everyone from the dance studio went, most of the dancers were from the younger classes, Mikayla's and Cara's. So Sydney and Haley were pretty much on their own. Haley performed here Mickey Mouse Dance with only Mrs. Brenda by her side. She was fantastic. She smiled allot and looked liked she was having allot of fun.














After we were done with the convalescent home we went over to the duck park in Boulder City. Everyone had their swimsuits for the splash pad and a picnic lunch for eating. It was very crowded, but I managed to find a scrap of shade to sit in so I was happy. I forgot a book so I spent most of the time taking pictures, I love doing that. Brayden even went in the water a little, which is unusual for him. He does not like the water spraying on him, but he does like swimming in a pool. After everyone was tired of the water and play park we went over to the lake part to feed the ducks. It was a fun and tiring day, Brayden and Mikayla both passed out on the way home and slept until 4:30 pm when I woke them up!!

I love, love, love the picture of Brayden on that little lady's lap. Does he ever stop smiling?


And the duck pond - always fun! What a great day.

Hey - maybe we could do something for the old folks around the holidays? For service?
