Dancing & Savvy

FIRST of all Savvy is having a giveaway today and it is awesome!!! this site has a lot of great photography hints & products! Check them out! www.thesavvyphotographer.blogspot.com

Second, this weekend wrapped up Mackenzie's year of dance, and OH what a year it was! Lots of practice, three competitions, 3 recitals, lots of pictures, makeup, hairspray, and bobby pins later, we are done for a few weeks anyway! This year was bittersweet. Lots of the seniors that we are very close to are graduating and will be very missed. Mackenzie and I were doing the ugly cries last night along with everyone else when these girls had their Senior Spotlight. I mean snubbing! It was not pretty there for a little bit. THANK GOD FOR WATERPROOF MASCARA is all I can say.

As a bonus, several mom & daughter groups participated in a mom and daughter dance. It was so much fun. The song was "I got it from my momma" and "We are family"(Chipmunk version) and it was great. It went off without a hitch, or so everyone thought. Just as the dance was beginning, I heard something in my leg POP....Then I felt it... OMG, I was in pain.. But I couldnt disappoint my daughter, and the show must go on, RIGHT? So I sucked it up (and limped a little) and made it through. It was so fun, and I was very thankful to see my chair when it was over! The look on Jordan's face on the front row was priceless. I am not sure if he was proud of us or thankful that it was Mackenzie up there and not him. Several of my dearest friends were in the audience cheering us on as we definatly shook what our momma gave us! One even yelled at me from the balcony (luv ya Matt)! I hope this is one little memory I can give my children that they never forget. No matter what... I will ALWAYS be there for them (and sometimes be on stage with them too)
