Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas everyone!! I hope you are all having a wonderful Christmas. We got a late start today. I was up around 7:30 AM waiting for the action to start and then Kim woke up around 8:00 AM and then we sat there for an hour and a half waiting for Morhéa to wake up!! The most exciting day of the year and we had to wake her up at 9:30AM! She has been enjoying herself opening presents this morning. In fact we are currently taking a break from opening presents to have some lunch. I think it might be an all day thing. Highlights from the morning session include some rollerskates, a Tinkerbell outfit, a trampoline and lots of Barbie and Princess gear. Have a great Holiday!

Our Tiny Dancer!

I will keep it short for this entry. Today was Morhéa’s 1^st dance recital. Kim and I are so proud of her. It is hard to believe my little girl is growing so fast. It seems like yesterday I would have never believed that she could get up on-stage in front of 100+ people and perform a ballet and tap dance. Her class started with the tap dance routine to The Beatles, “Love Me Do.” That was followed by the ballet section to Elton John’s, “Tiny Dancer.” I don’t know how they did it. They had ~20 performances of dancers from the age of 2-20. Each class performed 2 songs. The entire time we were wondering what Morhéa was doing backstage during her down time. She told us she had a lollipop, snacks and played and danced with her girlfriends. Cherry Creek Dance did a great job. The entire recital went smoothly and 99.9% of the kids looked like they were having a blast! Next week Morhéa's teacher is performing in the Nutcracker with the Moscow Ballet here in Denver.

With all of that said I am trying out a new service on my blog page. VIDEO!! This video is in a WMV (Windows Media Audio/Video) format. The videos are ~15 and 19 MB. I am not sure if they will stream or you need to download them. If you have a problem with them let me know and I can either get you a different video or try a different format. In fact, let me know you opinion either way because next time I might choose a different format. It only took a few minutes to upload so hopefully it won't be too bad for anyone.
