Recital Time

Recital time is here again and I was lucky enough to get one of Sister’s coveted seats for CeeCee’s ballet class performance! They split what is normally three shows up into twenty-nine mini shows, each just about 30 minutes in length. She takes three classes and each recital was on a different night. Kudos to her studio for making this work! I know it was a significant amount of effort on their behalf but it was quite enjoyable for the audience.

I could not believe the difference in the quality of performance from her last recital (2019)!! Wow! Sister took these photos.

Her class showcased a true production and I felt like I was watching the Coppelia village scene or Nutcracker party scene. The two staggered lines that swap half way through are a thing of the past!

She was the tiniest one on stage but I couldn’t take my eyes off of her. <3

Seeing her with her little ballerina besties afterwards was the sweetest thing.

I met up with them prior to the show as Sister put the finishing touches on her bun and such. I saw she had “Pashmille” in the car all dressed up in her tutu. I asked CeeCee if “Pash” might want to come in and watch the show and her eyes lit up. Sister told me I couldn’t distract her with the doll but I did hold her up at the very end and CeeCee gave her a little wave. It was the cutest thing! We are still talking about how much “Pash” loved seeing the recital. :-)

I always make CeeCee a bouquet and this one turned out beautifully from combining a few smaller bunches from Trader Joe’s (top). For Atlanta folks, Sister always uses Le Jardin Francais Boutique for flowers and they are always stunning (bottom).

I know she’s not mine, but I love as if she were! <3

You enter The Plaza Restaurant right in front of the charming yellow umbrellas where Main Street meets the castle hub. All seating is… Read More

Celebrating Honey

The quiet, loving, loyal, patient man we call Honey and Dad turned 46 today!! It’s almost hard to believe we’ve celebrated 23 birthdays together since our days at Georgia Tech. He ordered himself new floor mats for his Jeep (which will soon be John’s) and we’ve been working on making him a real office at… Read More
