Dance Competition

We had the pleasure of joining a large crew of Andersons (15 of us total) right here in town this weekend to cheer on our niece, Brooke, at her dance competition!  This was actually our fifth year in attendance, as the previous four we've been watching Brooke's older sister, Paige.  And just as Paige always did, we were completely wowed by Brooke and the rest of her team! They had a ton of energy and were really fun to watch.  Hadley was bouncing in her seat to the music, and Piper sat completely wide eyed and amazed, hardly even blinking.  The girls can been seen below with Brooke all dolled up from the competition (I could not get Piper to look at the camera as she was SO enamored with Brooke!).

While Brooke and her family stayed to cheer on the rest of the competitors, we had the rest of the crew over for chili and games.  Hadley told me later that night after everyone left, "Grandma A was a really good Hi Ho Cherrieo player!"

The girls could have listened to Syndey read ALL day long!

While most everyone else headed back over to the school for awards, the girls were tickled to find Grandpa A still here after their naps.  It think he was tickled too :).

We had a lovely dinner out together at Draganetti's, and then the Anderson crew headed back up North.  We'll cross our fingers that the competition will come back to our neck of the woods next year, and in the meantime, I think Hadley will be practicing her moves.

Always buddies!

Beloved Paige!
