Last weekend, we went to watch Kristina dance in Christmas Around the World. She was amazing dancing the Polish and Russian dances. I loved the scarf dance and all of the beautiful costumes! The Polish costume has really thick material like the native Polish dancers wore (since all of the costumes are authentic to the countries). My other favorite were the dances from Mexico--it brought me back to watching the dancers in Cancun last year do very similar dances while we were there last spring. There also was a group invited to perform folk dances from Africa which were really amazing. Knowing now that this will be her last time performing in Christmas Around the World, we're especially grateful that we went over to see her dance in this incredible show.
We enjoyed having the family all come to see her perform and one of my good friends, Analane, who has been a supporter of Kristina's dancing come, too! We went out to dinner afterwards to Terra Mia, which I had wanted to try, and the food was delicious and was served very quickly for such a large group--they even had gelato which the kids loved.
Another highlight of the weekend was getting to see friends of ours which we hadn't seen since we lived in Texas (the Janis') and catching up on our lives again and friendship. I'm so glad we'll be able to see more of each other in the future!
