outweighing tiredness.

ah! a whole week has come and gone,
and i only managed to post a couple of times.
life was awfully crazy this past week.
we, as ballerina's call it: "theater week."
meaning, we live at the theater for the week.
nothing but dress rehearsals, make-up and tiredness. 
i debated moving an air mattress into my dressing room-
i was that tired at the end of each night.
{which explains the lack of blog posts. ops!}

on top of many hours at the theater,
being a mum to our new pup was quite tiring in itself.
if i wasn't out walking him or playing with him,
i was spending all my minutes thinking about {and adoring} him.
or... worried that he was okay in his kennel all alone at home.
puppies are the best thing in the world- hands down.
but, they do take tiredness to a new level. 

lastly, on top of all of that, my parents came into town on thursday.
it's always the biggest treat when they visit.
they met their first grandson {aka our pup},
went to my performance {they've always been my number one fans},
and we all enjoyed a day in gorgeous yosemite.

it was a week to remember.
nothing beats the thrill of performing,
hugs from your parents {who live too far away},
and cuddling a ball of soft puppy fur. 
every ounce of tiredness was forgotten thanks to these great things.
happiness is love, life and family.
{and of course- husbands, ballet and puppies.}

hope you had a lovely weekend.
i'll be catching up {on lots} of your fun posts from last week.
xoxo
