catch your breath....if you can!

It seems we've hardly had a minute to catch our breath the last little while. Not that I'm complaining...I'd rather be busy than bored! Taris' activities have slowed down a little, skating is officially done as the ice show was the finale. Now we're concentrating on dance, which by the way, she hates. Well, hate may be a strong word, we'll just say she doesn't prefer it. She has to hang in there till the end of April and she actually is getting better with the steps. I've taken a little advice from my dance natzi friend, Tallie, and we've really been hitting the practicing hard!

Just to keep everyone up to date on what's going on, here it goes.

~ Friday, March 23 - - - dance pictures
~ Saturday, March 24 - - - Cole arrives.....not sure if Taris can wait that long!
~ Thursday, March 29 - - - Auntie Monica to the rescue...more on that
~ Saturday, March 31 - - - Taris has a dance competition in Wolesely - - - I have my v-ball playoff tourney (notice the schedule conflict**)
~ Sunday, April 1 - - - Larrie leaves for Nisku to renew his 2nd line - - - some of us will head to Regina as Cole heads out on the 6am flight Monday
~ Sometime btwn April 1 and April 6 - - - Gramma Lynn and Grampa Stan come home!

**This is where Auntie Monica comes to the rescue. She has graciously agreed to fly here to take Taris to her first ever dance competition as her mom is abandoning her (yes I feel horrible). But I'm making sure the family will be well represented. Monica is in charge but there's still the Darcie factor...this is where I think Gramma Mona will come in, I believe she will also be heading to the competion to help out. Now, you may ask, what about Larrie and Cole?? Well, from the sounds of things they will also go, but let's be honest the two of them in a little room full of girls needing help getting dressed, make-up and hair done??? I think not, they will just go to watch.

So, from now until then, we are busy. Between dance practices, exercise classes, v-ball practices, school and coffeeing with the girls (have to keep up with the gossip loop!) we're pretty much tapped out. Oh, and did I mention that Larrie may be curling (hahahaha) in the Estevan Oilmans? Why not, he needs to be busy too!
