Princess 2015




Our Princess turned 9 years old this year and quickly reminded me that she was half way to adult!!!  That makes this Mama feel pretty old, how does one tiny little baby turn into such a big girl so fast? 

She is still a big time dancer!  Her competition group took home many awards and medals this year, but they were the most excited about winning the 'gold ticket' and getting an invitation to preform nationally...unfortunately being a large group there was no way to financially afford to get all those kids/families there...but they were thrilled!  It is always fun to see her come alive on the dance floor!  In her Spring recital she was excited to get to do a Hip Hop, Tap, Jazz, Lyrical and Competition routine!  She also gets to help 'assist' in teaching the babes and preschool dance classes! 







She has also grown up so much.  She now sports a ladies size 11 foot and is getting scary close to my height!  She is finding that in some ways it is fun to grow up, but in many ways it would be nice to not grow so fast!  Next size of shoes she will be special ordering dress shoes and moving into mens tennis shoes!

Summer time brought some relaxation time for her and she was able to spend several weekends at the Grandparents farm.  She is getting pretty good at driving the 4-wheeler!  She enjoyed splashing around in our little pool, going to Bear Country, and going to Hills Alive; but highest on her list was getting the opportunity to be in the town's children's theater they call the Peanut Butter and Jelly players...she was in 'My Son, Pinocchio." She played a teacher and did so very well!  I was so proud seeing my girl up on that stage walking in her Mama's theatrical footsteps!!!  ;)








She is a great helper both to with her siblings and with the daycare.  She is becoming a huge blessing around the house, taking and interest is cooking and still being my baby whisperer!  One thing she will always line up for is her and Cupcake's Saturday morning muffin making for breakfast!  They do enjoy that time and it is one of the only times they are getting along as sisters!!! 

She is currently about half way through her 3rd grade schooling with Bob Jones University curriculum and doing pretty well.  She does not love Math, but she does take interest in Heritage Studies and Science.  I think her favorite thing about homeschooling is the fact that we are able to adjust her schedule so she gets extra time at dance when other girls her age are in school!  ;)

A few things she wants you to know:
Favorite color:  Anything neon!
Favorite book:  the Bible
Favorite family activity: Friday Family Movie Night
Favorite movie:  Love's Christmas Journey
Favorite Princess:  Tiana
Favorite memory:  Our Disney Cruise on the Fantasy
Favorite thing about Christmas:  Jesus' Birthday & a real Christmas Tree
Favorite thing this year:  Hiking by Roughlock Falls
