Precision Arts!

Paige had her last regional dance competition before nationals! It was a competition we had never attended before and they did things a little differently, we're still not sure if we liked it or not! They had a special buzzer/alarm they would set off for dances they felt were especially entertaining and those dances got to perform again in a dance off before awards. Paige's hip hop dance ended up getting called out but they did not win the final dance off! All of her dances scored extremely well though. Don't Rain On My Parade, I'll Be There For You and Bohemian Rhapsody all scored a Precision award, which is very hard to get and everything else, including solo and duo, received a crystal! Find Me also won best emotional execution which was such an honor!! We stayed overnight on Saturday and had so much fun the whole weekend! Paige even said she wanted to go back after we left on Sunday!

Getting ready with Ms Jessica

Kristin and I found time to get some fresh air. I took off my shoe to hold the door open so we wouldn't get locked out!

Ready for musical theater

We were at this same venue 5 years ago and I was able to have Paige recreate this picture!!
