Sydni started asking to go to this dance convention last year. And if you know anything about conventions….they are pricey! Especially the big nice ones….like Radix! So I told her ok but you have to ask for Christmas….thinking that would shut her down. Oh no. Radix was number #1 on her list. So I stalled for a while….you will be the ONLY one there from your studio I told her but she had already decided. So with some help from Gran and Pap we were able to buy her a ticket to the competition too to do her solo. And of course Mrs. Rebecca worked her magic….and off we went to Dallas. This convention was the best of the best of the best. Unreal and amazing dancing! It was so fun! Sydni was a bit initimidated at first I think…She really wanted Shurelle there when she performed and she has always had her dance friends in classes like this but she plowed in there like she owned the place. I couldn’t be more proud. 🙂 One of her first classes was Modern…something she has never taken before. The teacher told them he would be teaching the “Graham technique”. He then asked who had taken that before and only 4 kids raised their hands. And I told her “well now you will be one of the 4!” I think something clicked with her then and she realized what an opportunity she had. Oh and momma got some barre classes in too 😉 So a good weekend was had by all!
Enjoy the pics!
