Second Dance Competition - Day 2

Today was another great day at the dance competition.  Victoria and Gabriel got a Platinum for their tap dance "One" (Sequin Jackets)  This dance got 5th place.  The other three dances got High gold (7th on one of the dances).  Enjoy the pictures.

Second Dance Competition

I hate it when those who put on the dance competitions do not let you take pictures.  I pay enough money for my girls to participate so this is ridiculous.

In spite of this. Gabriel and Victoria did great today.  All of the dances got a High Gold.  Gabriel's solo got second place and her two trio's got eighth and fifth place.  We were at the competition from 10:00 AM - 11:00 PM and we have to be there for several hours tomorrow.

I did take a few pictures with my Blackberry.

Nana & Papa's

Every year Nana & Papa have the grandkids over to dye easter eggs.  Even though not every grandkid was able to come, they still had a great time.  Enjoy the pictures (even though none of the pictures are of dying easter eggs).

Paintings

Kelda and I had a friend (June Littlepage) do some painting for us.  Kelda wanted a lion and lamb on the painting.  She left the design up to June.  After June did some preliminary work (and praying) she came back to us and with her ideas.  They were perfect.  The paintings also included  cross with a crown of thorns.  This design is very similar to my tattoo with the cross and crown of thorns.

I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as we enjoy the paintings.  Come see the real things in our living room.
