Two buddies, Paris and Tommy

Paris and Tommy have gotten so close the past few months. Tommy LOVES when Paris plays with him. The night before her birthday Paris made pink cupcakes in ice cream cake cones. When it was time to frost them, she invited Tommy to help her. I literally did nothing...in fact, I was on the phone in another room. When I came back in the kitchen, Paris had iced all the chocolate frosting and Tommy had done all the vanilla frosting and both had added sprinkles to their cupcakes all by themselves. Tommy was so cute with his frosting knife in his left hand (he is FOR SURE a leftie like Sarah!) and his right hand shoving sprinkles in his mouth.

Here are the buddies tasting their creations to "make sure they are not poisonous!"

Paris was excited to share cupcakes with her Tuesday Options school classmates.

Parie's Dance Recital, June 2011

Paris was super excited all year for her "play" (as she called it!) The theme of the recital was "Thumbelina."

Of course, Paris was thrilled with her teacher's selection of a pink tutu for her class' ballet dance.
She looked adorable and those missing front teeth could not be cuter!
So fun that she had sooo many friends in her Tuesday morning dance class.
Her siblings and those of her friends always went to the library in Chuckwagon during Paris' hour long dance class. After class, everyone piled in to eat a picnic lunch at the park and have fun with friends outside before heading home for schoolwork. All the families looked forward to our dance/library/park day together on Tuesday mornings. What a fun routine we had on Tuesdays this past school year!
