Dancin’ Machine!

DSCN1173 DSCN1174Hannah has been having numerous little dance performances lately. So fun! This was her first year to take Hip Hop and she has really enjoyed it. She is quite the little dance, which she MOST DEFINITELY gets from her momma ;) These particular pictures are from a performance at the local school carnival. So proud of her!

DSCN1160She is getting TOO big! I recently went to parent night at the middle school with a friend of mine and aw man! We both decided to home school our children instead! Ha! Time just flies by too fast and I absolutely CANNOT believe that I will have a middle-schooler next year :( sigh. 

New Addition and some news…

Meet Max! My little Yorkie-poo that I got for our 11 year anniversary! Isn’t he the cutest little thing?!?! Yes, over Easter weekend we celebrated our 11 year wedding anniversary…WOW, how time flies. I love you, Justin!

And yes, I have been a slacker on blogging because its just so busy in the Gilliland household. The girls are anxiously counting down the days to the end of the year…they are harder to wake in the mornings and not loving going to bed when “it is still light outside.” So needless to say, it is time for summer!

This week is the last bit of TAKS testing, thankfully :) Hannah did great on her Reading and Math portions only missing a few questions and she got Commended on one of them too! So proud! She must get that from her momma ;) Ha!

Exciting news next week, that I can’t quite share with everyone so just say an unspoken prayer for blessings. I will have pictures and I am verrrry excited about meeting someone…”Who?” you ask….you will have to check back for the answer later next week.

I will leave you with some pictures of the girls because they are just so pretty!
