10 Year Anniversary
It seems crazy, but it really has been 10 years since Jon and I were married. Definitely the 10 best years ever! I definitely lucked out when I found Jon. He's the best, most supportive husband ever, and the greatest Dad. Sorry to all those who didn't get to marry him, but he's mine forever!
Rachel's 9th Birthday
Rachel turned 9, and chose to have some cousins over for a party. She planned everything out (of course, as is the usual for her) and was so excited to have everyone come.
Rachel decided to have feats of strength for her games. There was long jump, balancing, standing high jump, and then the high jump where you take a running start and try to make it over the pole.
It was a really fun party and Rachel loved having her family there to help her celebrate.
Music Recitals
Rachel and Hallie had their recital on the same day (all of my classes have their recitals together), and they were so happy to have the Snarr's there to support them. Thank you, thank you Snarr's for coming. They felt pretty special that even the kids came!
Hallie was really nervous that she would mess up and then she wouldn't know what to do. Turns out, her fears were not warranted. She did a wonderful job and didn't have to start over even once.
Kale's Recital
This was Kale's first recital in the recital hall, and he could barely wait for the time to come. When Jon got home from work the night of the recital, the first thing Kale said to him was "Can you hardly even wait for my recital Dad? Have you been thinking about it all day?" Obviously, that's what Kale had been thinking about all day.
After playing his first song, Kale did a little spin on the piano bench, then re-situated himself and started his second piece. It was unexpected and pretty funny, although I tried to explain that usually at recitals we don't spin around on the bench.
Sky's Recital
Although Sky's face looks like she's unhappy, she actually had a really fun time and was one of the best singers/dancers we had in class.
Ten years! Whoa! We are getting old. You and Jon are fortunate to have each other. Happy anniversary, you two!
ReplyDeleteAnd I can't believe I missed out on even MORE feats of strength games!
Nice job of the recitals, kids! Kale spinning on the bench made me laugh.
Love you guys.
Rachel - another year older. What a special big sister and example she is. It has been fun to share the recitals and the birthday. Anniversaries mark the growth and strength of families. We think your family is lucky to have both of you - Congratulations!
