February

 February was a full month packed with a lot of dance and a few other things.  

At the beginning of the month Mia and Brandon went to Jaryn's birthday party while Alex and I were sick at home. 

Alex got to work at the high school baseball fundraiser this month.  He is looking so grown up doing high school things! 

We had our first competition/convention of the season this month.  The first of many! We spent the weekend down town so Mia could dance for hours on end.  She had a great time! 

Mia always says she likes the convention classes more than competing which I think is crazy.  She loves dancing and being with her friends! 

Mia got featured on NRG's instagram for her awesome toe touch! 

The best part of NRG is that you get tons of free, professional photos.  Here are just a few from her four dances.  

This month Mia got to go to Biz Town as a class field trip.  She was assigned to be the Library CEO which meant she had to give a little speech.  Sadly I could not attend because of work but had many friends and neighbors send me pictures.  It was great and she loved it so much! 

Sadly this was the only picture I took on Valentine's day this year.  Mia made this awesome microwave to collect her valentines in.  And of course she dressed up festive for dance. 

Mia also got to perform her solo this month and her first Solo competition.  We got to take the day off of school and head down to Thanksgiving point to perform.  She ended up getting the highest score range possible (high gold) and got first in her category along with a judges choice award.  It was a great day!

Next up just a few days later was Velocity.  It was another competition and convention but this time Mia was only performing one dance.  

There were so many girls! At least the rooms were big. 

Finally, at the end of the month we got to attend a Utah Hockey Club game.  I won free tickets through Jordan School District.  It was a lot of fun and seemed to be a high scoring game. 

It was a great month!
