Pointe Shoes & Soccer Finals

Its an odd combination, but this week has had the excitement of both.

For my daughter a lead role in the year end production for her ballet class and she's excited - even if she had no knowledge of the character from her reading of the original story. Her character is a Disney modification, and will stretch her ballet work. Shes normally a very energetic dancer - who lacks the precision. and exactness of many ballerinas - in this case shes a very floaty gentle fish...

But we also went out and got her Pointe shoes to start intermediate foundation, lots of learning what's required, lots of excitement.

For my youngest son, and Dad the coach - we have the excitement of seeing a really neat team of 8 year olds make the final of their grade. They have all worked hard and had lots of fun. So we are hoping for a win on Sat. so far they haven't lost a game - but finals and semi finals ars we learned last week are different.
