The Dancing Grinch Who Stole Christmas

Bet you didn't know there was even a dancing Grinch. I'm here to tell you there is! Punka and Goldilocks are taking dance classes and Punka loves it. She seems to be pretty good considering it is her 1st official year. (She took lessons a few years ago, but I didn't last very long.) Goldilocks seems to be wishy washy about it. He says there are no boys in his dance class. Boys don't dance. Well...some of you may agree, but he is just too cute with his fat feet in those little black ballet shoes!

Last Sunday was "the Performance". It was great! We had such a great time. Goldilocks was not, and I repeat NOT, going to go on that stage to dance. So, being the great mom that I am (or want to be), I pointed out to Levi every time there was a boy on stage. They really did a great job. Hip hop and acrobats...pretty cool...especially to a 4 year old. The routine right before(and I mean right before) Goldilocks's class, he decided he was going on stage. I grabbed his bag (cause I'm a good mommy I was prepared) and we RAN backstage. Once we got there, I seriously only had about 45 seconds to change a cowboy (remember he wasn't going on stage) into an elf. He made it on stage, although his shirt was on backwards and I didn't get his tap shoes on his feet, only brown and red striped socks. He danced and is still talking about going on stage again! I don't have a picture of him since he was in and out of his costume really fast!

Next, was Punka's turn. She was a star. I am the Mommy of a superstar. So I'm a little biased. So are you! Punka loves dance. She loves performing. She loves dressing up! I took her to the MAC counter to have her makeup done and that was the most fun ever. She was so excited when I told her where we were going, although I don't think she really understood until we were actually there! I did her hair while we waited our turn. Everyone that walked by looked and said something. Some people stopped to ask what we were doing. She ate up the attention (just like her aunt A)!


What fun we had! Everyone was tired but in a festive mood. You should try it next year...come see the superstars! I'll keep you posted!

Hey, this mommy is going to bed. Dancing over the edge...over and out.

I have video of their performances. However, I am having problems uploading it. Stay tuned for those!
