Dancing & Decorating

This past weekend, Emma danced in her 4th show of The Westerville Christmas Spectacular for her dance studio.  It is always a little stressful week but she does well and loves every minute of it.  The dancers start rehearsing at the end of October until the show which is the first weekend of December.  There are 6 shows total.  Last Friday, the dancers perform 2 shows during the day for the community for fee...such as other schools come to watch, nursing homes, etc.  Then Friday night is a full performance and 3 on Saturday.  I help out backstage for most of them but Emma now does not need me as much so I mostly help out the little ones!  Emma did great and we are very proud of her!

Then on Sunday afternoon, we baked and decorated our annual Christmas cookies for friends and neighbors.  The kids love doing this every year and we will continue this tradition!
