Piper's Ballet Recital


This is Cassidy and Piper. They are holding "Bun Bun" and "Lu Lu". They take ballet class together and this was their recital. They were so excited. These girls can't get enough of each other and can't get enough of pink and tutus. I love the picture of Cass clasping her hands together. So irresistable! 
After the recital, they called the Dad's up for a "Daddy Daughter" dance. 
Myles is a good sport because "Butterfly Kisses" is a REALLY long song...
  
     
 I posted this picture of Piper and I because if you notice the funny look on her face, then look down- she had just peed her pants and was not happy about it.

-The End-

Prayers for Porka


               
      Okay folks- we almost lost her. We put Porka (our guinea pig) outdoors in her pen like we do everyday. Only this time when I went to go get her, she wasn't moving at all! I freaked. I squirted her with a squirt bottle and tried feeding her. I put her in her cage and she just laid on her side like she'd given up hope to live.  After many lies told to my kids and panicked tears shed, I called my animal master friend- Melissa to help. Bless her soul! 
      You see- something you should know is I am not entirely comfortable yet with our little animal. I am baby stepping it to understanding her. Melissa scooped Porka up into a cool bath and gave her eyedroppers of water as she pried open her lips...- she saved her life. 
     My assumption is she stayed in her plastic house out in the heat of the sun and baked herself. And I took these pictures quickly when I thought "the end" was near so my kids could remember her.  As you can tell they had no idea what I was up to. phew.
