This year she is not only doing ballet, but is now old enough to start hip hop! OH MY! Could there be anything better?? She is SO EXCITED!
Behold my baby in her new (expensive! *cough*) garb...
Her stinkin' hip hop shoes alone were FIFTY BUCKS!?!? Ballet was never this expensive!
Of course we had to get this amazing shirt...she is SO tickled and in love with the fact that it is off the shoulder and has those straps...
She just had to go and check it out in the mirror...
She also chose a new tutu. When she was in Saskatchewan I found this pink Leotard at Toys R Us for $7.
She is now at a size/age where the ballet slippers come like that we need to adjust them. I will sew the straps where they need to be. I want her teacher to have a look first and see where they are supposed to go, I know nothing about this stuff!
So we are set with that. She starts next week and cannot wait! I ordered her a beautiful dance bag from here that has her name on it. Isn't that stuff pretty?? She got it in the mail on Monday and was SO SURPRISED! She LOVES that it has her name embroidered on it:) It is even better quality than you can tell from the photos on the site. I am so impressed and will buy more things from there. The service was amazing as well!
We got the kids a trampoline while they were in the Great White North! What a great surprise to come home to. Guess what paid for it?? THIS!
That's right. The insurance company wanted to shut me up so they paid me a little bit for my "injury". It was the exact amount of the trampoline I have been wanting to get the kids for about four years. So now they have it. We had to pay extra for the enclosure of course. Safety first! Photos will follow.
I need to go fill my face with my favourite chip dip that Stud brought me from Canada when he went to pick the kids up from my brother. He forgot my chips, so I need to use American ones. It's ok though. Don't worry about me. The man tried his best and no one is perfect, you know?? The American ones are better than nothing, at least I have my dip...aaahhhh... the best EVER.
Guess what else I get?? One of my FAVOURITE Chocolate bars:)
I'll worry about losing weight (an on-going battle for the past SIX YEARS! that you all are sick of me whining about, I am sure) next week:) When the Canadian goodies are gone:)
Oh yeah, life is good...

Princess's outfit is so cute! If you have video capability on your camera you must get her dancing and post it for us.
Have a great weekend Oh Fellow Canuk! LOL
Jude- NO! We don't get Coffee Crisp, Aero, Mirage, Big Turk, Mars, Oh Henry, Eat More, Caramilk, McIntosh Toffee, Old Dutch anything, McCain's (but I am sure you knew we didn't get any McCain stuff; I miss their pizzas! AAHHH!!!) anything, SunRype anything...the list goes on. See why I miss home so much?? You are right, it IS a Crime!
I really need to add the link on here of her Spring Recital. I see I did not do that, will try and do it soon.
You have a great weekend as well!
Your daughter is cute as always. Glad everyone's all right after the little fender bender. Enjoy your treats!
Hey, hey, hey. You Canadians quit picking on us. We have good stuff too. Idaho Spud bars, Idaho Spuds, Idaho and the list goes on. Hey, tell Princess that hip hop is much better than ballet. You go girl. I'll bet she is glad to live in the good ol' USA where she can do these things. In Canada all a child can do is stomp around in the snow, chase bears, call to the moose's, and wish she lived in the USA.:)) I have met many Canadians in college and they were so far behind the rest of the human race. I actually felt sorry for them. NOT!!! Byeeeeeeee
Vince- Thanks and yes I did enjoy the treats:)
Tim- You are a HOOT! That is all I can really muster up here. That says it all. You are just a hoot, plain and simple:)
