This was our first year taking dance class. Kessler really enjoys watching shows with music and dance (ranging from Pitch Perfect to The Nutcracker) and loves to try and copy the dance and even sing along. So I figured, why not let her try dance? If she did not like the structure of it, I was not going to continue it. But she really looks forward to going to “ballet!” And her first recital is one week from today. I’m really excited because she has her 2 dances down!

Here are pictures from her dress rehearsal the other day. Expect more pics from the actual recital next week!

**Mommy tip: I recorded videos on my iPhone of the teacher doing the moves, and I would play it for Kessler at home and she was able to practice and get the moves down.   

This little boy, Sammy, cracks me up. He always has a frown on his face and putting his “thumbs down” to show his utter disdain for being in the tap portion of the routine 🙂        

We went to The Colonial in Ft. Worth yesterday. It was a muddy mess, but we had a lot of fun! And I have to say we actually watched a lot of golf (something I’m guilty of not doing in the past as we typically hang out in the tents).

Watching Vijay Singh. Eric said something to him as he passed by (like, “Good job!”) and Vijay looked directly at Eric and winked at him! 🙂

With Garrison in “the lobby”

We had dinner after at The Tavern (which has the most addicting shoestring fries ever). I got to sit next to sweet Brady and Natalie Dolezal! 

Hello, and welcome to the new Whitmire Family blog!

I am starting a new blog because the site I was using previously was not working with my iPhone. And the majority of my digital activity is done from my phone, so I have been super inactive with updating my blog.

Please save the address to this blog (whitmirefamily.com) if you want to stay up-to-date on all things going with our family, and especially our girls Kessler (3) and Holland (1).

Enjoy!
