San Francisco - Part 1


Airport - Friday the 13th, flight delayed, but we made great time!
More pics of that great day soon - took them with Marina's camera so still need to upload them!

No School March 6th

Friday, March 6th, our district took one of those "teacher in-service" days and the kids were off. Marina decided it would be a good day to get in some "community service" hours by helping at the dance studio free of charge. Here she is stocking the beverage cooler.

Here is Marina with the "Tiny Tutus" class, assisting Ms. Stephanie who teaches that on Fridays.


Here's Marina with the "Pre Dance Combo" class. They are so cute!

Ryker & Alison...

One evening last week....
Apparently it was "game night". She tolerates his need to win, yet holds her own. Pretty funny!
Two nights later.......
"Tolo Night"
It was very windy and chilly, but those girls with bare legs and grassy heels smiled thru the parent photo-shoot event from 4:30-5:30 pm
Group of 8 couples

They left in a "party bus", went to an Italian restaurant in Kirkland, went for ice cream, got to the school just before 9pm, took pictures then danced. Then, they got picked up by some parents and went to one of the kids' house for a bon fire and s'mores & fun till 1a.m.!





Hearts & Flowers

The Red Heart is from David from Valentine's Day....
The beautiful White Tulips (one of my very favorites!) are from our dear friends the Boswells, who delivered them to our door the day "GG" passed away. (So very kind of them!)
The Red Rose was handed to me by my son Ryker during his EHS Swim & Dive Banquet as a team thank you for being on the board of the Booster Club. (very sweet)
I just thought they all looked pretty and thus snapped a pic!
