• Pre Dance Breakfast and Stuff

  I promised to share my morning with some of the dance kids last weekend before they had to start their rehearsals, so here it is.

  This is Nick and Nick's HUGE plate of pancakes! He thought he could actually eat this....He couldn't! Course he had also had a coffee and a fruit smoothie...but then so had...

  Gabby....She's a skinny minnie...That cleaned up plate of hers?....was full of the biggest stack of french toast covered in blueberries and strawberries and whip cream that I have ever seen!!!!!!...She ALSO had a fruit smoothie and she out ate Nick no contest!

  This is the ending to an awesome meal filled with lots of fun and laughter. How those kids danced after eating all that stuff I have no idea. I went home for a nap!

  And here's the wrting on the wall! The girls drew the high school logo and the names of all the dances they were doing. Floyd's Diner is a very kewl place to eat. The walls are covered in stuff like this! It's a lot of fun.

  Nick and Chewy and Kimmie

  And...Ella

  And a still of the dance that won them the senior honors Hip Hop dance award which they will be accepting tomorrow night at the Victoria Dance Festival Gala. It truly was an awesome number. (Once we get the dvd of the dances I might even be able to post it)

  So that was my last Sunday...it was a great weekend. I love sharing time with these enthusiastic young people. It reminds you that there are still lots of youth working hard, doing what they love and giving it their all....We hear far too much about what young people do wrong these days and not nearly enough about what they are doing right. Overall I think our youth deserve much more credit than they receive...It's a tough world they live in...and plenty of them still manage to live well!
