Ariana Nicole: May 2010

It's official.... Ariana will be on the Elementary Competitive Team and the Pee-Wee Cheerleading Showteam for X-treme Jazz. We are very excited and have a busy year ahead of us. Ariana will be learning a total of 6 different routines, but she couldn't be happier. She is doing what she loves best. We will also be having fundraising coming up very soon, so hopefully you guys can help and support Ariana on this.

Our weekend went very well, but we did have a VERY BUSY SATURDAY.... Saturday morning Ariana had a photoshoot with Nena Metcalf from Richmond, TX. She modeled an outfit that was made by Jenn's Bowtique. The main picture posted at the top of this site is one of the pictures that was taken. As soon as i get the rest, i'll be sure to post them on here. Ariana loved it, When we left she asked why she couldn't take more pictures at the shoot with different outfits. LOL...That girl is always ready for the camera and all the attention. Gotta Love her!!! After the Shoot we made a quick stop at momo's house in Wharton to visit and we got to see Memo too, Ariana got to show them the cute outfit and then we had to get her dressed for Dance Try-out's. We headed back to El Campo and Ariana did her thing, then she requested to go eat at Pizza Hut, She enjoyed a pepporoni personal pan pizza while mom had to eat a salad...OH JOY...LOL...but gotta keep up the good eating if i want to continue to see progress. Then we went home to take a nap so that we could be well rested for the evening. I took Ariana to see her friends dance at a recital and of course she absolutley loved that too. Sunday Morning we went to church and then enjoyed a relaxing Sunday afternoon.

Sorry i don't have any pictures to post this time, but i promise to have some posted on the next one. Hope you all have a great week. I know i'm hoping its a fast one because i'm ready for a 3-day weekend :-)

Well it looks like i'm slacking on the blogging. Sorry! The Princess has graduated pre-k. She looked so beautiful in her cap and gown. They had such a cute little program. They sang songs and then at the end when they received their diploma they said a little bit about the children and what they wanted to be when they grew up. And of all things Ariana said she wanted to be a Derby Doll...LOl..go figure! But just an FYI she says she wants to be a Teacher also. We had a small reception for family and friends after the graduation ceromony, it went very well. She is now ready to Conquer Kindergarten. She is so ready to start school at Myatt already, but i told her she needs to enjoy her summer. I'm sure once she gets to her daily routine of going to "real school" she is going to quickly forget about all that excitment and complain in the mornings about not wanting to go to school. She does have a busy schedule though, because not only is Ariana going be on the Dance Team, but she will also be on the Cheerleading Showteam and learning a Solo dance routine. She will have 3-4 practices a week , but its what she wants to do, and i'm all for extra-curricular activites so i support her 100%. Ok well i shouldn't say she is on the teams just yet, because technically she has to try out on the 22nd of May, but i've been getting really great feedback from the teachers so she pretty much has it in the bag, LOL....Of course i don't tell Ariana that..I tell her she needs to practice these tryouts and learn the dances the best she can because she is going to have to do them in front of judges who will decide if she can be on the team or not. She knows that judges mean Business, LOL...she must smile, not touch her face, and not look at the dancers around her.

Mother's day was very relaxing, we did celebrate Mother's day on Saturday since my Grandma from McAllen came to visit, so on Sunday I took Ariana to the Aquatic Center and she had a great time there. Now she is saying she wants to have her birtday party there....so we have gone from skating to bowling to swimming...hmmm?? that girl changes her mind too quick, I wonder where she gets it from??? LOL so hopefully by July we will settle on one of those places so that i can get the place booked.

Just a quick update on my brother: Well i have finally received a letter from him....YAY...i was super excited to get it. He is doing great, defitinely not an easy place to be at, but he has a great attitude about it all. He is about to start week 5 of 13 in Bootcamp. We are so looking forward to seeing him at his graduation in July. Then he will get to come home for 10 days. He says he can't wait to pick up Ariana and just swing her around, he misses those little moments with her and Ariana misses him so much also. She even wrote him a letter :-) well she said it and i typed it, LOL..... so basically i typed each and every word that came out of her mouth. It was a very cute letter though, she signed it in her own handwriting, i know ricky is going to enjoy receiving that one because it all came from her own little heart :-)

Hope all of you have a FABULOUS weekend. Enjoy the pictures...Sorry i didn't have too many to post, but i was borrowing my aunts camera and couldn't figure out all of the settings..My mom did capture all of it on video though :-)!!!!

The Beautiful Grad
