So proud of our Irish dancer. Abbie placed in all of her dances this weekend. Way to go Abbie!
Abbie had a Irish Feis this weekend in Portland and tonight we went and saw Lauren, Paul and Eleanor Breithaupt. Aunt Ginni was in town visiting so we had a wonderful evening all being together. Eleanor is a doll and Abbie and Eleanor had a fun time playing together.
Abbie went to her first feis (dance competition) for Irish dancing this weekend in Portland. Jennifer and Olivia flew in and got to watch Abbie dance. Abbie placed 13th, 4th and 3rd on Saturday and 1st place on Sunday.
It was so fun watching Abbie dance and getting to see so many Irish dancers in one place. After the competition we went into the city and had a fun time all being together.
Abbie spent St. Paddy's day performing at many retirement homes in Bend and ending the day at a pub in town. It was a fun day for Abbie and all the dancers.
We finished Abbie’s new shelves today!
Abbie officially turned 7 on the 20th. It was the day we got back from a week at Black Butte. Everyone was tired so we decided to celebrate the next day. We went to Redmond not far from Bend for a lovely afternoon of tea. The tea house is owned by a woman from the UK who has moved to Oregon. The tea house is called AK's Tea Room. How how fitting that was for Miss Abbie-Kate (AK). Abbie wanted it girls only and invited LuLu, Aislyn and her mom Tina, a dear family friend to come along for her birthday afternoon. Lulu even treated the girls to handmade head warmers for winter. It was a perfect way to celebrate our sweet Abbie.
This year Abbie's birthday fell on our vacation to Black Butte. Since her two cousins - Olivia (turning 2) and Charlotte (turning 1) are both August babies and we were all together we thought it would be fun to celebrate the 3 girl cousins together.
Kevin and Abbie went out for frozen yogurt for a daddy daughter night out. Someone really loves their daddy.
Abbie received the character trait award for "perseverence" at school at the last assembly. We are so proud of our girl. She had a fantastic year!
