Bumps and Bootie Shakes

So after two weeks of emailing back and forth with our family photographer, we finally were able to mesh our schedules and find a date to take Ane's 1 year old pictures and all the girlies "school" pictures. We decided that instead of footing out the money for pictures that are cute but none the less don't really show any personality of the kids, we would pay less and get pictures we love more from our favorite lady, Suzanne Rackliffe. Of course, after I got her email today finalizing the date and time, Ane fell at the Dance Studio, right into the corner and gave herself a red line from her nose down to her lips, blood was everywhere. Sound like Ginny, Mom?

And tonight when Naki dropped off the big girls at their dance classes our favorite dance teacher in the universe, Gina Eady, mentioned to Naki that she might be considering a Daddy-Daughter dance number this year for the dance recital. He told me that he nervously/awkwardly giggled and quickly changed the subject. Everyone ready to see Big Daddy on the dance stage? He said he would never want to upstage his girlies...c'mon, Big Nox, you know you want to give us a glimpse of those old Bootie Shakes from the good 'ole Ricks College days!!! I am dying from laughter over here...roaring, actually.

I just love when our morning routine goes so smoothly that I keep checking to see if I'm missing something. Is it too much to ask that it go this way every morning? Almost no one complained when it was time to wake up, everyone was alert and cheerful at scriptures, and one and all moved from chore to chore without prompting, getting themselves ready quickly and dang cute, all without mother-the-nag getting their cute bums moving. Are all the stars aligned? Can we make this happen on a regular basis, pretty puh-lease????
