Home again

We got back from dance camp in Nashville last night. I signed on for a while but my brain was too pooped to write anything!

Olivia had a blast and made lots of new friends. I was really proud of her and her two friends from here that came along. All of them made efforts to talk to new people instead of just hanging out together. (The fact that all three of them are 6 makes that even more amazing!)

Ian came up on Wednesday with M's parents and did camp on Thursday. He had a good time too. I hated that he didn't get to take class on Wed. since Nick Bass taught hip-hop on Wednesday and he would have loved it! Oh, well, at least he finally came for a day. He got to meet another guy who is one of their senior dancers and he's gonna do the choreography for Ian's solo this year. (Now I just have to figure out where to find the money!)

I spent all 4 days sitting in the lobby at the studio because Olivia didn't want me to leave. Z and C went to every mall in Nashville while the girls were in class. I think C was a little worried that I would be mad that they left, but I wasn't. I didn't have any money to spend so I wasn't that excited about going to the mall. Unfortunately, they were more interested in going to the mall at night too, even if it meant the kids were up later than they should be. I got a little aggravated at that, especially the second night it happened.

I enjoyed watching the classes on the monitors and got to know several other moms from other places, which was nice.

Believe it or not, when we rolled into town, Olivia insisted that she wanted to go to her regular classes at our studio, so we went there instead of home. I wish I had that much energy!!
