Countdown to Concert

The countdown to the Christmas Dance Concert is well and truly underway and we have moved from one set of finely-timed contrived activities to another.

There was a rehearsal on Saturday where legions of kids and more legions of parents descended on the dance studios in somewhat heated conditions.

On Sunday we went to a barbeque with some friends who we have met through the dance school too, and straight after that on the way home we were back at the studios today to pick up the costumes.

For the ballet dance Eloise will be wearing a pink dress with babooshka head dress, for tap a finding-nemo type costume with fish eyes and fins, and for jazz a spangly swimsuit type affair with spangles.

Needless to say all the costumes had to be tried and tested as soon as humanly possible.

Today was the photoshoot at the church up the road from the dance school. Legions of kids. Legions of parents.

Tomorrow - dancing.

Thursday - dress rehearsal. We can't make that because if clashes with the nursery Christmas party. Which reminds me - Wednesday, Nursery Graduation.

Friday - day off.

Saturday - concert.
