Dance Studio Excitement




You can see the mirrors as they were being installed in the new room. We have now had two days working in the new building. This means no more walking back and forth before and after class. All the dancers are so excited to be in our new room. The girls can now see themselves in the mirrors and they can jump on a proper surface. NOW It is time to focus on technique and performance qualities with the proper tools to do so.
Our concert is Dec 1, 2 , and 3...it is coming up too soon. This is my 6th year here. The girls who are graduating this year started in the seven grade the same year I began. I am happy they have this new space to work in for their senior year.
Here is a peak of one of the Christmas Dances intitled Mary Did You Know?

Homecoming Performance

Homecoming Weekend
















So there are many first this year as we see the growth in our charter school. We were asked to perform at the halftime show of the football game. It was a very fun opportunity for the dance 4 class to perform. We hope to do some more of this during basketball season as well. Getting envovled with school spirit is fun and important and I am so blessed to get to work with such wonderful youth.

Steve's Fish Fry

for some reason I could not get this picture in with the next post....so it gets a post of it's own. This is how the fish looks when cooked.

So we just got Christopher back home from a wonderful school trip to New York and Boston. You can see he loved his time in the NBA store at Time Square. He also loved going to the Theatre to see Wicked. It was amazing he said. We were also blessed that Timothie could take time off of work and bring her homework home for a weekend visit. Timothie had to go back to her college town on Sunday afternoon where we had a big fish fry so Steve could share his fishing skills with the family it was a yummy family time! Look Nana I made your brownies.

I'm waiting very patiently



The Lights are on now. Looks like it may just be about 10 days or so....waiting now for mirrors and flooring. The girls and I have a lot to do to prepare for the next concerts but we are going to love working in this new space. Look we will even have a water fountain!

The Outfitter















A home without a mortgage? A resort to go? Call it what you must but we will call it camping in the Outfitter. Notice it has a chimney so we can stay warm on those cold nights. Christopher is off to New York City on a school trip this week, and Timothie busy with college so we took a quick overnighter to the White Mountains where Steve did a little fishing and Mike and I played some horseshoes.
