I figured that sticking the Monday and Tuesday news into the same post would spare me a bit of time. It also means that this post will be full of details…! Enjoy!
Yes, the past two days have been FULL of Christmas songs (and dances, of course)! Yesterday my parents (and many others) came to view the Training 2 dance. It went beautifully! My parents took videos for me (We always perform our Christmas Dances twice.), but as you know, I cannot post them for lack of space. Despite that sad fact, you can believe me when I say that everything was practically flawless! Next year, I will be dancing on pointe…!
Today in ballet, Miss Sara gave us her favorite Christmas combination of all time– degages performed to “Jingle Bells!” On regular occasions, this is an easy piece, but during the Christmas season, singing is included. We all sang at the top of our lungs as we degaged; we laughed so hard! We managed to attract the many people in the lobby, who also burst into hysterics.
One of my cherubs gave me a beautiful little jar of chocolate before her performance today– thank you dear!
We dressed all the little ones in candy-cane shirts, grey tutus, bells and sparkly Santa hats! They were all so cute, and they danced so well! As I demonstrated the dance for the girls to follow, one of the girl’s little brothers began to follow along with me and was extremely proud as he told his big sister all about it. Adorable! <3
Walking out, Emma came up to me and handed me the most wonderful bag of gifts– thank you so much to my beloved dance-sister! <3
