Dance Mania has Begun!!

It has been awhile since my last post, I know. Too many things going on at on time to even try to get to the blog. A real brief synopsis would be: 1. Tori withdrew from school, 2. Tori totalled 1 car and wrecked another in less than 6 weeks! 3. Granma had another stroke 4. And last but not least, we found out we owe the equivalent of a new car to the IRS for taxes this year!! 5. Oh, all most forgot, and Tori started her own fund to Ms. Mary - Jude! Yeah!!!!!

This weekend we were in Smithfield for Madi's first competition this year. It was at JCC and we had a beautiful facility to use. It was really nice. This was the CDM competition and Madi's debut of her new solo. I was so nervous for her I could hardley stand it. She was WONDERFUL!!! She got gold this year (one higher than last!!) and let me tell you, that girl was moving it. On Saturday the groups performed and won straight gold for all four dances. Everyone thought they were forsure going to receive a Platinum, and they should have, however Miller Street was there and if the group had a 16, it was gonna get a platinum. Whatever. Our girls rocked it. Rock Star was amazing and Madi popped and locked so hard I thought she threw her back out!! It was a blast.

Way to go Mariah, you really know how to make the girls work it!!
