NYCDA Los Angeles

City #2 in preparation for Nationals in NYC. Tempe Dance Academy had an amazing weekend overall in Los Angeles. A lot more kids competed in L.A. then in Mobile. It is closer to Phoenix at least. If I recall correctly, 99% of the numbers scored a Platinum. They won a Critics Choice in the Junior and Teen division. A lot of overall high scores and awards. All in all, they all did amazing. One of the dances that did well, was Steam Heat. It was choreographed by Holly, and it was so good. I had not really seen it, so I was very excited about it. I think it stands a very good chance of making it into the Junior Gala at Nationals. Let's keep our fingers crossed. Next city, Chicago for the Company kids. Holly and Dana are trying to convince me to go...Buddy????

It's not that great, because I was taping it while I was watching, and so the camera gets a little off center at times.

And although NYCDA Nationals are not until July, I know that time will go by super fast.

Here are pictures of the invitations for Kassie's 13th Birthday party. I had so much fun making them.

Sorry the pictures are so bad, my camera is dead and I used my phone.

My life through my iPhone 2

Part II of "My life through my iPhone. Saturday was the Marcos De Niza Homecoming! Kassie and Aaron had a blast! I was able to finish Kassie's ballroom shoes on Sunday. It was spirit week for Corona del Sol and on Monday it was TV character day. She dressed as Blaire Waldorf from Gossip Girl. Corona had a bon fire on Thursday, and the Pommies performed a hip hop routine. Here is a picture I stole from Instagram. On Saturday evening, the kids decided to carve pumpkins. Here is Nachito and Chanel getting ready to carve. Kassie and her friend Amanda did some carving too! These may not be great posts, but it's a start.

Flashback Friday

As promised, I will countdown Kai's birthdays parties every Friday from now on until we reach her 13th Birthday. Come join in Disney fun as Kassandra Paulyna turns one! Saturday, September 6, 1997 From day one, Kai was always smiling. Her cake was made by my sister Ana. Her piñata was bigger than she was. Two pages from her scrapbook, which I haven't kept up with, hence the blog. Kai's first birthday was bitter sweet. I had been planning it for about four months. At the time I was a stay at home mommy and I had nothing better to do. It was bitter sweet, because my dad had passed away two weeks prior to her party. We really considered moving the date or cancelling the party all together, but my mom said that my dad would not want that. So we went ahead with the party.
