Fall... Already??

 Well, first of all, let me say a big I'm sorry for being so slack in updating!!  It seems there are never enough hours in the day to get everything done, whether it is summer,fall, winter or spring!  But, here we are at fall, and the girls are all in school.  The twins are in their last year of pre school... they are learning new things every day, and can now write their name, and numbers!  They are enjoying having Ms. Betty, who is a retired school teacher, for this year... Abby is in the 7th grade now... she is doing very well, and should be getting her report card in the next week, and has all A's... woo hoo!!  The big news for Abby is she has a dislocated knee.  The first clogging competition was held on Oct 1st, and the girls did great! They were practicing the Monday after, and somehow, her kneecap did not behave, and she has been in a brace for the last 4 weeks... 2 more weeks to go, and a little physical therapy and she should be back to normal! She has still been practicing her dances the best that she can, so she stays up on things, and will be ready for the competition in January.  She was number three on the tennis team, and won her first match, lost her second, and did not get to finish out the season... Spring tennis will start in March, so hopefully her knee will cooperate with her for that!
Here are the links to the two team dances that the girls did on Oct 1st.  I have Abby's solo on another camera, so I will have to get it downloaded...

Hopefully, I will have some Halloween pictures to post of Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, and a Red Crayon... but here is a picture of the twins dressed up for their dance class... too funny!

Happy Halloween!! More to come... Take care!
