Dance Recital

























On May 31,2009 Gabby and Mekenzie had their Dance Recital at Pope Joy Hall which is a very big deal for the girls who plan for this all year. They did great and we had a good time. Grandma and Grandpa Ritchie, Great Grandma and Grandpa Ritchie, Pa and Nana and Mom and Dad were there. After enjoying the show we went to dinner and all in all it was a great night.

Picture Day




















e




















We decided that we needed to take a picture of all the cousins on the Ritchie side while everyone was here for the summer. So we planned this great day to meet at the picture studio. Wow was that not a good idea. Collin decided to have a major break down in the picture studio he was just not having it he would not sit with the kids at all. The rest of the kids which included 3 babies a 2 year old a few 4 year olds and the rest of my kids were sitting beautifully and happy as could be it was just Collin. I tried to get my sister in laws to take the picture without Collin but they all refused and we settled on eating lunch and trying again afterward. By this time the rest of the babies and younger ones were not wanting to sit still. So anyway we got a picture with all of them in it not a good one but they are all in it. When I got home I did my own photo shoot. It's a process but as you can see I got a few good ones. Next time we'll have to just go to the park instead of a studio.
