Dance Recital, Camping, and Some Wedding Stuff

Tree Monkey had her dance recital last Wednesday.
She practices a lot and has good confidence at home then she gets on stage and isn't as confident. She still does a great job and I am so proud of her.

We took the kids camping for the Memorial Day weekend. We got there Friday night and Saturday was an awesome day. Saturday night it started raining and it rained until Sunday morning. The kids woke up from the tent leaking and so we decided to pack it up and come home. We will have to go again, because we loved it and I love camping.

Just checking out his arm from wiping out on his bike.
A dirty child, but boy did he have fun!!

At home on Sunday with my camping face and hair
I did not brush my hair for two days. I still have ringlets :)




We just about have everything planned for the wedding and I will start buying stuff this next month.

This is the dress
(Isn't she just gorgeous)
We are having calla lilies for the flowers. Simple, yet elegant.
I'm meeting with the seamstress the next couple of weeks to get the bridesmaid dresses done, the wedding dress hemmed (she is cheaper than the dress store), and the ties made.

**Upcoming post about the graduation of Monkey Wrench!!!

Lots of good stuff!

It's awesome that Tree Monkey's teacher came to her recital - great teacher! :)

Bummer about the leaky tent. :( We enjoy camping too, but not so much with a leaking tent. Been there, done that. :S

And finally, Gorgeous Dress! :)

I love teacher's like that--it's so important to support the students.

I haven't been camping for awhile--wish I had hair that could go without being combed--but believe me it would REALLY BE A SITE.

Hope all the wedding plans come together.

Looking forward to the graduation post.

It almost always rains when we go camping. Which is why I prefer sleeping in a yurt or cabin.
Lovely wedding dress!
