Dance in The Pas

 ...Found this vintage treasure of a bed linen in Nana's linen closet....

    It's coming on to two and a half years of living seven hours away from our city, friends and family. I'm still enjoying meeting and making the new friends here, and at the same time, treasure our visits south more than ever before.

...Each and every New Years Day that I can remember (and I'm in my late 30's - Oh My, I think that is the first time I've admitted THAT!), my parents have an all day breakfast of Crepes, berries, maple syrup and whip cream....Everyone is invited to the reoccurring event...and yet their efforts are not in the invitations as much as it is cooking the crepes a day ahead, and shopping and preparing their home for the annual celebration...

 ...This past December, we had a special gift of tickets to the Nutcracker, with the Royal Winnipeg Ballet...It was surreal bringing my daughters, 10 and 5....my first live ballet was the Nutcracker at the age of 4...It was nice to see Selah, on the edge of her seat.

...back home, we are starting our own preparations for The Pas Art's Council's Music Festival...I'm excited to see the choreography evolve and begin to take form on my students...even if it is recreational dance...

dancing on,
