Posted by Michelle on May 15, 2009 in Hayley
I posted a few before but here are all sixty photos from the party!
Fhew, what a great birthday this turned out to be! Hayley had Emma, Kennedy and Mason over and they started with manicures and pedicures at Sweet and Sassy, the limo ride, dinner at Ginza, a Japanese steakhouse, then home for cake, Wii, movies and sleepover.

Hayley missed some soccer with the thigh injury and her team missed some games due to the tons of rain here. Hayley is finally getting back in the swing of things and scored her first goal of the season, which was her team’s first goal of the season too. I luckily had the camera shooting:

Hayley was finally cleared to play soccer again! With the tons of rain going on, she ended up missing five weeks of soccer but only ONE game so she still has most of the season to play. For her first game back – not even a practice (rained out), she did great. They lost 4-0 but she had her team’s first shot of the day and almost a lovely assist but her teammate’s shot rolled off some. No pain and she was clearly happy to be running again – she even got off one of her favorite pull back moves which is in the pix.
I’ll add more pix to this as the season goes on.

Photos: Leslie & the Lys show
Posted by Michelle on Apr 20, 2009 in Hayley, Michelle
I’ve written in this very space of my love for Leslie Hall and her world of Gem Sweaters. Leslie is simply hysterical – the combination of great song topics and a midwestern white girl rapping in gold pants rocks. Hayley loves the Leslie & the Lys CDs and asks me play it in the car all the time. I love her website and her music because she’s original, funny and infectious.
(If you don’t know about her, take a minute and read this story from Wired for a brief overview, YouTube Gem Leslie Hall Bedazzles the Masses.)
I hadn’t checked the band’s website for their tour schedule but I found out one day last week on facebook & twitter that not only were they back on tour but over in Chapel Hill that very night! Leslie, her gold pants, gem sweaters and the Lys had arrived all the way from Iowa and we would not miss that chance. The Midwest Diva had knowledge for the Junior Gems!
She was playing at a legendary club, the Cats Cradle, that I grew up going to as well. I called them and they said it was cool to have kids there and Leslie, while appealing to adults more than kids normally, is pretty G/PG stuff (booty is the worst word I heard) and after all, they did invite her to dance on Yo’ Gabba Gabba twice last year. I informed Hayley about what I’d found out and she proceeded to jump around and scream like a crazy person, so I knew she wanted to go too.
The show was fantastic – not too packed or rowdy. We sang and danced, it was GLAMOROUS – shazzam! Hayley was the only kid there so she was feeling very cool. And then, things got even cooler when Leslie brought her up on stage! Hayley was thrilled – wasn’t even worried about going on stage at a concert. We even stayed after the show to meet Leslie and the Lys.
Needless to say, we haven’t stopped listening to the CD since the show. I’m so excited my kiddo gets this stuff – she can have her Hannah Montana, etc but I’m content to fill the rest of her noggin with offbeat original stuff.
