Oops! Today I didn't get a picture taken!

I have a picture like this of Tricia at this age too. Ryleigh is practicing making her feet look like bananas - which means in dance talk pointed toes!

This morning Tricia made her bed and then lined up all of her favorite stuffed animals from tallest to shortest in the middle of her bed.

Today was an awesome huge day for me! I had the honor of interviewing for a high school English teacher job at Southwest Christian in Edgerton. I am not really qualified to teach high school, but I do have a degree in English and am almost done with my elementary education degree too. I was so excited to be offered an interview, but so nervous too! I bought a fun new outfit, which I modeled with Ryleigh before the interview.
PS - I did not get the job, but I did not anticipate I would. I was so excited just to get an interview and have the experience interviewing for a teaching position. I am so glad that I put myself out there and tried my hardest.

Today we listened to the girl's basketball game on the radio. The game was at 8:00 in Redwood Falls so it was too late and too far to go watch in person. They won! So next up is a game this Friday in Marshall. We'll hopefully be able to go see that one. If they win it is on to state again!

Today both girls got to dance at a Habitat for Humanity fundraiser - Dancing with the Habitat Stars. It was a lot of fun to watch both the Spotlight dance teams and the couples competing. Two couples ended up in a tie: one a father-daughter team that was hilarious (dad rigged up a special costume so that he could carry his 2nd grade daughter while he danced around the stage) and the other was a husband-wife couple (the wife was actually on Good Morning America last year when they did the Dancing with the Moms competition). We all had a great time, even though it got a little long!

Today, the girls and I went shopping so that they could spend their Christmas gift cards. Trust me, that money was burning a hole in Tricia's pocket. We had a quick lunch at KFC (by the way, they have cool kids meals that come in a laptop looking box - the girls loved it!) and then headed over to Wal-Mart to spend the majority of the gift cards. Then we went to the mall so we could find Easter dresses and spend the rest of Tricia's Visa card at Justice and Claire's. Seriously, that girl can really shop! Finally, we had a little treat at Panera before heading back home again. It was great to have a bit of a girl's day - daddy loved having some time to himself too.
Another week down! I am so proud of myself for doing this little project! I have a ton of beautiful scrapbooks made for the girls. I am currently still a year behind in those albums, so it is so nice to have these little snippets of our life already scrapbooked and ready to share! And doing this lovely little blog so that I always have my journaling done in advance of getting my pictures!
Have a great week, everyone!
Hello, I enjoyed looking at your pictures this week. The dance recital seems like fun, I miss my girls being in dance. I always like to see their costumes and see how it matches up to the song they dance too. Sounds like you did a lot of shopping, I can never do the mall and walmart all in one day with my girls, its one or the other I tell them. I love doing this project life too, so easy, no stress, just fun. Have a good week.
