Our Beautiful 8th Grade Graduate

Christy graduated from Redeemer Christian School on June 3rd. It was a lovely service complete with an awesome slide show! She looked so beautiful in her graduation garb. We are so thankful she has been able to attend RCS for middle school...we LOVE Redeemer!! Dedicated, loving teachers and fun, fabulous friends (-: She is well prepared to join her brother and dad at Forest High School next year.
Go Yaki!! We are proud of all your hard work! You are growing to be a beautiful young lady, as beautiful on the inside as on the out. We love you, Sissy! (more photos coming later. Click to play vidoe below.

Joseph Ballet

Another moving performance by Dance Divine School of Ballet, this year was the story of Joseph. Gracie was able to dance in two dances this year, twice as many as in previous years! (-; And she acted in a third dance. Her first dance (olive and burgundy costume) portrayed the travelers who purchased Joseph from his brothers for 20 sheckles of silver. You can see the money bag tied to Gracie's waist. The second dance (blue costume with cool headpiece and earings!) portrayed Joseph's rise to power in Egypt, with very cute "Egyptian" touches. Thanks to all the friends, fans, and family who came to see the ballet. And sorry to all of those who tried to attend the Sunday afternoon show but were turned away (silly fire codes!) )-: We encourage everyone to come on Saturday next year or get there really early on Sunday.
Gracie, thanks for all your hard work! It is a joy to see you dance for the King!
"Let them praise His name with dancing." Psalm 149:3
