Wishland Family Festival and Pump It Up!

Today was a busy, busy day for the girls. The day started early with a birthday party for one of Mackenzie's new classmates. It was held at Pump It Up, which is a giant warehouse full of inflatable slides, mazes, and bounce houses. Megan was able to tag along to the party because we had to be at the festival shortly after the party. The girls had a great time playing and jumping. Megan even challenged me to a game of air hockey, I look back and wonder if I should have let her win! Shortly after the party we headed to Featherly Park for the Wishland Family Festival. The girls continued their great day with more slides and bounce houses, but also got to enjoy a petting zoo, pony rides, face painting, art, BBQ, games, cotton candy, hair coloring, and the highlight of the day, the butterfly release. It was such a hot day but it didn't seem to bother the girls who ran from one thing to another. They are already excited to go again next year.

The start of our blog adventure!

Summer has ended and the fun of school has just begun. Megan is very excited about the 3rd grade and Kenzie was overjoyed to be entering Kinder this year. With school comes a new dance year......Megan will be in 3 group numbers including tap, jazz and hip-hop and one solo tap routine. I am very excited about this new year of dance, I believe Megan will score big at the competitions. Mackenzie also joined the competitive circuit this year, she will also have 3 group numbers which will include tap, character and jazz. They have both started learning their dances already and are very excited with their song choices. It is shaping up to be a very very busy year!
