Flash Back Photo Friday...

This was not that long ago... but i never did post pictures from when we went to watch Caitlin at dance class (last November!)... and because we were moving this was one of her last classes... so Nana Great, Nans, Lindsey, Will and Brinley and I all packed ourselves in this small studieo to watch Caitlin dance all around. It was a JOY for us to watch her and her little friends... not to mention she had just about THE BEST TEACHER in the world! Love ya, Courtney.. we MISS YOU!
