This year TDA chose to go to Dance Masters of America Nationals. They were held at the Coronado Springs Hotel in Disneyworld. Florida is a great place to visit, I could never live there. It is so humid and it rains all the time. It can be a beautiful day...and then all of a sudden here comes the rain. Disneyworld, however, is the most fun. It was Kassie's first trip to Disneyworld and she loved it. We had a blast, and it was so much fun getting on all the big kid rides with her. She is definetly a thrill rider. She could not get enough of "Rockin Roller Coaster". I have to admit, it was my favorite also. Going to Nationals with all the TDA dancers is always great. The kids have a great time together, and it helps build their friendships so that when they dance together, they have fun. TDA as a whole had an awesome Nationals. They were awarded very few Golds, most of the numbers scored Platinum. Kassie competed two solos at DMA. She did Hippy Hippy Shake and a new solo to Baby I'm A Star. With HHS, she scored a Platinum and won her division, she also came in 6th place overall. She got a Gold with Baby I'm A Star. That was great considering she just barely finished it in time for Nationals. All in all, it was a great time. Next years Nationals we are off to NYC again.

Here are pictures of the invitations for Kassie's 13th Birthday party. I had so much fun making them. Hum...maybe because I used my three favorite colors, maybe because I like to make invitations, or maybe it's just because I LOVE to plan parties. Either way, here is a sneak peak. Sorry the pictures are so bad, my camera is dead and I used my phone.

Good things come to those who wait...

I was having one of those bad Mondays. One of those Mondays when everything seems to be going wrong. 1. Our phones at the office are not working. 2. Statements went out over the weekend and angry patients are calling to complain. 3. My coffee got cold and I had to throw it away, and now I have a caffeine headache. 4. My cell phone has been tied up all day because I'm having our calls forwarded to it. (good thing for rollover minutes). 5. My boss has just added two more things to my darker pink "TODO" notebook. And just as I was about to roll up in a ball and hide under my desk, I got this e-mail. Dear Kindle Customer, Today, we introduced Kindle 2, the next generation of our wireless reading device.

Where do I begin???

After a long absence from my blog, I am finally sitting down to post. So much has happened in the past month that I honestly don't know where to begin. December 23, 2009 turned my world upside down. My mom suffered a minor heart attack, and was taken by ambulance to Chandler Regional Hospital. When I arrived, she was in good shape, and she was talking. They ordered a CT Scan of her chest. When she got back to the ER from her test, every thing that could have gone wrong, did. She suffered another heart attack, this one was much worse. She was in-tubated and things were not looking very good for her. The next few days were spent waiting for tests to be run, consulting with Dr.s and praying. A lot of praying. We were finally told that she would need to undergo a quadruple bypass. There was a problem with that, because she was in critical condition. Her kidneys were failing, her blood pressure was to high, as was her blood sugar. And, she was to weak. The surgeon said that we would
