I love that you all play along
with the
PICK YOUR FAVORITES
that I put together.
I am a couple of days late getting to this
because our friend Dr. Ball passed away
and we have had so much going on.
SO
WHICH ONE Of THESE WAS THE WINNER?
First place with the most votes is:
GAZE AT THAT GAZEBO
Coming in at a close second is
THE LITTLE HOUSE THAT GREW
Coming in THIRD PLACE is:
SWEETLY STONED
I LOVE all THREE of THOSE!
~Thanks so much for playing along~
Here is another kind of
WINNER!
We sat at Dance Competitions all day yesterday.
You have watched me brag as Ria won in
every competition she has entered.
She got a Lightening Gold Trophy
(the highest she could get)
and came in FOURTH OVERALL!
That is huge- she is dancing
with girls that have been
doing competitions for years and this is only her
FIFTH competition.
BUT THE SURPRISE IS!!!!
SWEET CHEEKS
in her
FIRST EVER PERFORMANCE
got a
HIGH GOLD
and SIXTH OVERALL!
I might or might not have teared up a little bit.
Little Miss Personality
came "alive" on stage!
It was so fun to watch!
Have a great Sunday.
We have another competition today!
Congrats to both girls! I would love to have been there! Thx for sharing the photos.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and talented girls! :) You have to be so darn proud! :)

ReplyDeleteA hearty congratulations to both Ria and SweetCheeks! She looks like she's really enjoying this. Have a wonderful Lord's Day and enjoy those grandkids!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Ria and Sweet Cheeks ~ there's nothing like it to make you feel so super proud! I missed your post on the playhouses but the Sweetly Stoned house (love that name!) reminds me a little of our house - maybe I should look for a front door like that one, it's pretty cute!
ReplyDeleteDiana, Please tell Ria and SC congratulations, they are beautiful. I would have loved seeing their perform. I bet you were so excited. Blessings to all of you, xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to both girls, I know the love and pride you have, my granddaughter,Morgan, did competitions in gymnastics and cheerleading for years! We love our children and grandchildren and find so much joy in them!
ReplyDeleteGazebo #1 yea, that's the one I voted for.
You are now the family of "dancing queens!" How fun! Congratulations to Ria for such an award and to Sweet Cheeks for such an outstanding beginning! Linda@Wetcreek Blog
ReplyDeleteOh Diana, Ria and Sweet Cheeks are prima ballerina's!! Watching them in their glory would have made me tear up! Precious post~
ReplyDeleteYour girls are so precious and clever! You must be so proud of their accomplishments! Love Sweet Cheeks' costume!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to both girls, Diana! You must be so proud! I'm not surprised about Sweet Cheeks - I think you've got a performer on your hands there. : )
ReplyDeleteCongrats to both of your sweet grand daughters...hugs..
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful news! Congratulations! xo

those girls are amazing, so much talent, Ria is so elegant and sweet cheeks is just such a fire cracker, she has it all, congratulations to them both, best wishes today in the competition, sweetly stoned, you thought that up didn't you, lol,
ReplyDeleteLittle Miss SweetCheeks seems to have grown up overnight! I still think of her as a five year old, but the last few photos you've shown of her look much more older (bad grammar).
ReplyDeleteLove all of the playhouses. We had big old cardboard boxes when I was growing up but we sure had a lot of fun in them! Congratulations to both of the girls. I know you are so proud of them!
ReplyDeleteJudy
Loved all those playhouses, but glad to see my pick won! :) Congrats to both girls! They're amazingly talented and I know you're so proud of them!
ReplyDeleteCONGRATS to both girls Diana that's awesome!!
ReplyDeleteLoved the little houses and I LOVE getting to see your sweet girls all dressed up to perform! Congratulations on their achievements!
ReplyDeleteIt must be so much fun watching your granddaughters in dance. I've seen my cousins go through this with their daughters and the grandmothers have as much fun, or more, supporting this.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to both the girls!
So glad to hear the gazebo play house got the most votes, that was my pick. The girls must be thrilled to be so successful in their competitions. And it must be a fun time for you watching every bit of it. Thanks for your comment on my brother-in-law, Diana. We are just so saddened by this.
ReplyDeletelove, ~Sheri
Granddaughters are so much fun . . . they keep us young:)
ReplyDeleteFun times. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHugs to the girls.

Oh I know you are enjoying these days - my great niece is in dance and we enjoy seeing her.
ReplyDelete"Play" houses? I thought they were so pretty they were to live in.....you know.....real houses?! I was ready to move right in! Ha ha ha just kidding. So excited to hear the girls scores! They did great! Born to dance....yes they were!!!
ReplyDeleteYour granddaughters look so beautiful! So glad you had a good time at their compition!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the house that grew and I think it would make a perfect hideout for me. CUTE grands! Dancers! How fun!
ReplyDeleteThose grandgirls shine as bright as the midday sun. So much fun to watch and congratulations to both
ReplyDeleteI want the first house too! Your granddaughters are so cute...and you must be so proud! Dance competitions are so stressful and fun. I can imagine your face light up with pride.!
ReplyDeleteI remember the days of when my girls did dance and my granddaughter too. And it hard to me to believe that my granddaughter is now a freshman in high school. Time sure goes by quickly.
ReplyDeletehugs, Cindy
Congratulations to Both of the girls AND their Grandmother :) What a blessing our grands are! Blessings to you, Cindy

Well, another new month and week ahead of us all. I am hopeful for some rain here tomorrow before our temps climb to and past the 100 degree mark. It was in the 90s and a bit humid already today. Oh yes, I wanted to say I like your new pic you posted above.<3
