Leila's Dance Recital

The weekend didn't start out great when we found Leila had strep. We found this out AFTER she had had a rehearsal the Saturday morning before the performance on Sunday evening. The dr. said she was contagious...the show must go on though! Of course she had complained that her throat hurt, along with her elbow, knee etc....so, I took her to the dr. thinking it was nothing as it usually is...

One of my girlfriends was in town from Midland for the dance recital. We had a fun weekend getting together with some of my college friends to see Sex in the City and have dinner!

Leila's recital went great. She did so well and was such a big girl. With her hair pulled back in a bun, I could hardly recognize her. It was really special because she was standing by her friend Ashlyn (who's mom was my college roomie and one of my best friends). I don't know how "special" it was for Stephanie since Leila had strep. :) What are friends for right?
