Bevin's ballet performance

This is my first ballet performance in six years!
I decided to start taking ballet again a few months ago.


My ballet teacher asked me to do a solo and perform
the Sugar Plum Fairy dance for the recital.

It feels good to start dancing again. (the backround is ghetto)

The end! Jeremy sat on the front row
and took these wonderful picures!

Memorial Day in modina!

Its that time of year again where we all make a day
out of it and help grandpa smith castrate the cows
and cut their ears off!! As you can see, Jeremy is
showing an example of cutting off the ears.

The boys talked me into taking the honors on one
of the cows and i snipped both testacles!



all done! as my hands are shaking...

I took a step back to count the cows,

there were about 50 or 60 to do!

This is how they hold them down while they

performed the surgery!

I know everyone is jealous that they didnt

get to cut off cow balls for memorial day! But

if you would like to come next time, let me know!

Its Quite fun!

BRAZIL!

For Christmas this year the whole family made it
to Brazil. Here we are with my parents maid in a
little house where they meet for church.

Here i am feeding a little monkey bananas. We
found out bananas really are their favorite. I
fed a little baby too many bananas and it threw
up.

We decided to make gingerbread houses on
Christmas Eve. My brother said we need to do
it the real way and make the gingerbread, so here
we are getting the walls and the roof ready to bake.

We spent all day making our houses. Jeremy
and I decided to have a contest with Rhett and Sara......

And we totally won!! It was a great Christmas
and it felt good to have the whole family together
at once.
