Grandma and Granddad (Walmsley) gave me swim lessons as a present, and what fun I have had!! Mommy doesn’t always feel up to being in the pool in the morning, so Papa gets to play. We sing songs, blow bubbles in the water, reach and pull with our arms chasing rubber duckies, and kick, kick, kick!! Last week I also started jumping off the side of the pool into Papa’s arms. We signed up for classes with my friend Reagan and her mom Dana from our “My Gym” classes and we go Friday mornings for a half hour session. I LOVE SWIMMING!

Hi Everyone,
Last week we went to Toronto for the BATD North American Highland Scholarships – an invitational only, major competition. Five of my dancers were nominated, but only Maeve and Cecily were able to attend. The competition rotates between the US and Canada each year and different places in each country. We stayed in the Delta Chelsea Hotel on the 22nd floor! It had a cool pool and a children’s play room which Juliet loved! We went to the Toronto Zoo, the Royal Museum (where we saw the Dead Sea Scrolls), the CN Tower, and Collier and Juliet went to the Science Museum. Juliet danced the night away at the Ceilidh (Collier videoed and I tried to keep up with her and safe from other dancing feet). She was great entertainment!! On the way home we stopped off at Niagara Falls (Canadian side) for lunch. It was a nice little trip.
Hope you enjoy the photos,
Love,
Susan, Collier and Juliet
