Cinderella

Ruby is dancing at a new studio this year.  For their recital the studio puts on a huge ballet production that is performed in a beautiful theater downtown.  This year they did Cinderella.  The performance was FABULOUS!!  Ruby's class were court jesters that danced while the king told the prince that he need to "find a mate"  (and yes, the charming prince is a red head)

Ruby's mouth gaped open as she walked into the theater for her dress rehearsal - which is when the pictures above were taken.  I don't think she had ever been in a theater that big or beautiful and she was simply thrilled by the whole experience.   She did a great job and we all thoroughly enjoyed the night.  (Although, 2 hours of ballet was a little long for Adam).

Keeping it Real

Occasionally for scripture study we will read highlights from a conference address rather than our scriptures. Usually we talk about something that has a message that will help us put the gospel into action.  Then we try to remind ourselves of what we talked about by putting it on our white board.  This particular message has been up for a while, but as you can see, got an addendum.  I am so glad everything is sinking in.
