dancing with my girls

so its been a while since ive blogged, but i was inspired to start back up.  the easiest thing for me to write about is my nieces, so we'll start there :)

as i've mentioned before these three girls (caroline, campbell, and kennedy) are responsible for a large portion of the joy in my life.  i thank God for them often.

we do a lot of fun things together.  each one of them likes different to do different things with me.  caroline loves crafts - unfortunately aunt stace is terrible at arts and crafts - but we still have fun doing them together. 

campbell loves to climb on chairs and push her baby in her stroller.  so we do that.

kennedy is just a wee one and she mostly likes to be held by her mama and eat so she does that, but i can't wait til we have our own fun things to do too.

however, the one thing that both of the older girls enjoy doing is dancing.  if you know me, you know im not one to dance in front of many people.  that actually sounds miserable.  ill dance with jonathan in the kitchen and in the car with gloria, but thats nearly the extent of it.

but when it comes to my girls, i dance.  and we dance a lot.  we dance every time we get together.  we dance to some of the regulars - cupid shuffle, the peanut butter jelly song, and single ladies every time.  we've recently started "dancing" to going on a bear hunt and that's pretty fun/exhausting too...except campbell thinks there's really a bear coming so she quietly exits the room without ruckus right before we get to the cave and "see two eyes and a big furry body."

however, i think my absolute favorite is our new tradition.  and this is to dance to "movin like bernie."  you can check out this dance here.

i actually have a video of my girls doin the bernie...but i am still trying to figure out how to get it uploaded...so check back for that.

but i love this.  i love my girls.  i love that this is something we do.
