LADM....LA Dance Magic Convention

This was our first year going to this dance convention. It was a 2 day convention....5 hours each day. The girls had a blast. All the girls wore their NEW dance outfits....hoping to outshine all the other girls. I think they were successful! Their instructors were awesome and taught the girls some cute routines. On Sunday, I took a parents class. Boy was I surprised! Our instructor taught us a hip-hop routine that we were expected to open the convention show performing. I have a new appreciation of how our girls feel when they are on stage. Will never do it again!!!!!!!

Halloween....2009

The girls absolutely love halloween.  They start deciding their costumes in the summer and probably change their minds a 100 times before making a decision.  This year Emma was a pirate girl and Hannah was a witch.  We start the season off by going to the pumpkin patch and picking out our pumpkins.  We didn't go this year...got rained out!  Dad did find some nice looking pumpkins for them to decorate.  We don't carve...too messy...and Dad says the carved pumpkins attract flies and ants.  Oh well!!  On Halloween night we go trick or treating with the neighborhood families...tradition.  It's so much fun.  The moms and dads get to catch up and the kiddos have fun just hanging out and getting lots of candy.  We had a blast this year.

Catch-up

Alot has been going on over the last 3 months and I haven't been good about keeping my blog up.  Just busy I guess.  These posts may not be in order but this is what we have been up to.
