1st Dance Competition

We had allot of fun at Nikki's dance competion. Lucky for us we did not have to be there until 8am. So I woke up at 5 to get myself ready before I had to get Nikki ready. I think James was more excited about what the day was to bring than Nikki was. He was bouncing off the walls and kept asking her if she was excited and she would say yes then James would comment on how excited he was. It was funny I was laughing at them being silly. The competition was in Olathe so we had to leave home around 7 and of course we naturally barely made it out the door on time. I think next time I better give ourselves more time to get out the door. But then maybe we will be better organized by then. Nikki and all the other girls did an amazing job. I was not able to go to practice the Sunday before and the teacher said she was kinda worried because the girls seemed to be all over the place with thier dance. But she was very surprised at the competion the girls all danced wonderful and even remembered their steps without any prompting from the teacher which gave us extra points from the judges. We are so proud of all of them. The girls did end up placing. I can't remember what they called it though. I will have to find out and post more on that later. After the competion every thing seemed kinda crazy with everyone running around so we just took some of our pictures here at home afterwards. Oh yeah I forgot to mention that the song she danced to was called cooties.

Nikki I want you to know that I think you were amazing and I am so proud of how you danced. It is so much fun to watch you grow in dance every year. Mom, Dad and CJ all love you so much. Keep up the good work. We love you. xoxoxoxo
