| Bright (middle above) is quite the hip hop dancer. |
 |
| Bex (middle back standing) is a beautiful lyrical dancer too ! Amanda and I took Bentley and Cash to watch them at Roy High for a competition. Landon and Kacey were out of town, so Grandma Carol was in charge of the dancers, while we handled the "littles". It was fun to watch them perform. They love it !

 |
| It was great to hang out and watch a few performances |
