Sorry guys, no vlog this week. I usually film my vlogs on Sundays but…
this Sunday I was down in Minneapolis with all of my girls for an all weekend dance convention.
I snapped a few photos on our walk to dinner. Minneapolis is gorgeous in the winter.
Friday night we had a delicious dinner at Brit’s Pub. Their mac n cheese bites were to die for.
How neat is that fireplace (left photo above)? It was GIGANTIC. I loved our hotel.
Especially the bathroom mirror (bottom center photo above)
Pictured:

Bottom center- Bright and early, 7:30 AM, ready to kick off the convention
Bottom right- one of our girls receiving her scholarship
I can’t say enough good things about the Nuvo Dance Convention and it’s director Ray Leeper. 3 of our kids got scholarships which was just the cherry on top of an already awesome weekend. If any other studio directors are reading this, you need to go.
I’ll be back next week with my usual vlogging antics.





Just reading 7 AM makes me want to cry. great photos! mmm mac n cheese bites.

aww i miss dance conventions, soo fun! I was a competative dancer for years!
Looks like you had a great time and thanks for sharing these with us!! 🙂
How fun! I watch SYTYCD and became a Travis Wall lover so naturally I watched his show All the Right Moves and that introduced me to Nuvo. I wish I would have been given the opportunity when I was younger to dance … now I throw dance parties all the time in the living room … Looks like you had fun!
