May 3rd 2009 was a Tutu-rrific Day in the Yard!!!

The message went out Saturday night...Sunday in the Yard would be Tutu day!!!

This is the same tutu that I wore when I was 5!!! Richie said, "You must have been a REALLY BIG 5 year old!"

Mercedes!!! And yup, that's the same red tutu I wore for my Carmen solo @ age 10.

Me & Ruth in matching pink tutus!

Meredith didn't have a tutu so she improvised...

"I want TuTu too ~ BOO HOO!"

So I let her borrow my Angel tutu.

And she was HAPPY!!!
