First Time Bowling

On Saturday we thought it would be fun to go bowling, Vi has never been bowling. She had so much fun! She really got the hang of it pretty quickly. We did have the bumpers up (Eddie and I only used them once each, haha). Although she did still get one gutter ball. We only played one game because we weren't sure what she would think if it but next time we will def play at least one more.


It was so cute, she would throw the ball down the lane and then come running back. She did really well for her first time, her score was 57. Not bad...

First Dance Recital

Today was a very busy and exciting day, it was Vi's first dance recital. She was going to do the hip hop dance that she has been taking since last Aug. About 2 months ago she started taking tap and ballet also but she wasn't going to do those classes because she didn't have the costumes. Well, yesterday after the class there was a girl with a costume that wasn't going to do the recital and she said Vi could use the costumes, so she was able to do the tap and ballet also. So she did three dances and she did them all so well!! We are going to get a DVD of the show at the end of the month.


This is Vi and Melissa, her teacher. She is wearing the borrowed ballet costume.


This was onstage right before the curtain went up for the hip hop class. She had a solo and the crowd went wild after she did it!


She of course had to do a cute pose for the camera :)

Vi cut her own hair...

As you all know I refuse to pay $25 to get Vi's hair cut so I just do it myself. She has come to know the drill...wet hair and cut. Well, on Saturday I was taking a shower and Vi was downstairs with Eddie watching TV. I get out of the shower and I hear the faucet turning off and on in her bathroom. What is going on I wonder? Ms. Victoria is wetting her hair and has cut it on both sides up to her ears. Surprisingly she did a good job but she only cut it in the front.

We were already running late for dance so I told her I would finish it up when we got back. It looks really cute! I have always liked her with shorter hair, looks good with her facial structure. We did however have a talk about how she can not cut her hair. Len told her she could not cut her hair until she was 12, knowing Vi she will remember that and on her 12th birthday she will pull out the scissors...HAHAA.

Summer Schedule

Well, this was the first full week of summer vacation and the first week I am working from home. So what better time to start a new schedule. I haven't been to the gym in quite some time so I wanted to get that in there somehow. Here is what I came up with for the days that I am taking Vi to camp (Tues, Thurs and Fri) - up by 6 breakfast, dressed and to summer camp by 7. Then to the gym and back home by 8:30ish to start work. Then on Tues (Thurs starting in July) leave by 3:45 to go get Vi and to dance by 5. On Mon and Weds Vi is staying home with me so we are going to get up and do a workout video. We will see how long this goes...basically I am going to be driving around the valley like a maniac.

Yesterday was the first day of this new schedule. It went off with only a few hiccups. I forgot breakfast so Vi and I stopped at Starbucks. It actually turned out very nice because we went in and sat down and ate together. Then she just sat on my lap and cuddled for a few mins. It was a good day. And today has been ok so far too. Vi and I did a workout video. She was so cute doing it.

We will see how long it lasts...
