dancing with the stars tour

December 31, 2008

I didn’t take near enough pictures during the show tonight. I was so caught up in watching my girls perform I had a hard time getting my cameras out of their bags.

I did take a few pictures during their pre-show rehearsal…

Both our girls did a fantastic job dancing, and they both said it was really fun!
Neither Kiana nor Myla felt like they were dancing in front of so many people because the inside of the E center was so dark, you couldn’t see most of the audience! Also, there was a lot of fog,

school christmas parties

December 20, 2008

Our kids’ school finished the 2008 school year with a pajama day!
They were also let out early at 11:30 am after a morning filled with Christmas parties.

KJ’s class had so many fun activities. Mrs. Harken {a.k.a. mrs. sweetie pie} is always incredible. They had a present exchange, colored fuzzy christmas pictures, had lots of treats, and decorated gingerbread houses.

My friend RoxAnna and I helped out with the ginerbread houses-
My friend Jenn planned the 3rd grade class party, and it was an INCREDIBLE party! The 3rd graders came into the gym and watched “the snowman vs. santa” in 3D. Then they had a cookie and hot cocoa buffet.

all i want for christmas…

December 18, 2008

sitting on santa’s lap was serious business for KJ.
He needed to make sure santa knew what he wanted.

the list was:
a big race track
with 9 hot wheels cars {all in ONE pack.} that’s what he said.
more transformers

Myla asked for “anything” and then after a little more persuasion for suggestions from santa she came up with “a snowboard.”

{hmmm, santa hasn’t been able to convince her to take snowboarding lessons this year and did not really plan on this…}

kiana. she was a good sport to sit on santa’s lap long enough for me to take a picture,

nuvo

December 7, 2008

Right after the field trip, Kiana and I headed to Salt Lake City for the NUVO dance competition. She attended workshop dance classes (the convention) from 2-8pm, we skipped out on the last two hours of classes Friday to get a little extra shut eye. We were both so exhausted. Then we were back up before dawn Saturday morning for the competition and MORE dance classes. I was up at 4am, and bearsy and Isabel 5am! We had to be back at the Salt Palace with hair, make-up, breakfast eaten and ready to dance at 7am. This weekend we stayed at the best Marriott Hotel. It is located downtown on State St. and 200 South and when we checked into our room Friday night and looked out our room windows the downtown ice skating rink was right behind us!

christmas around the world

December 5, 2008

I chaperoned for all my kids’ field trip this morning to
Christmas around the world, a very entertaining show performed at the BYU Marriott center by the BYU folk dancers.
While we were walking into the Marriott center, Myla spotted our neighbor and her good friend Elizabeth. They both attend different private schools and I thought it was fun to get a quick picture of them both in their school dresses.
Myla and some of her other girlfriends from school-
The show for the elementary schools is only one hour and they do dances that represent about 8 countries during that time. Of course, the Philippines was totally our favorite.
