Provo Ballroom Comp 2010


Yep we were in Provo for 3 days and to fun filled exhausting tiring noisy exciting mind blowing nights.....

My baby girl aka Kenya who is now 15...(holy Crap) nearly 16 ...mercy.

Ok so we had to leave the cold and snow of Rexburg to head to Provo on friday at about 10 in the morning on friday, we had to pick up my niece Paige in IF, and then continue on, wow the noise level of 3 nearly 16 yr olds in the van was so freeking enjoyable lol, thank goodness Nanette and I insisited on 80's music it sooths the savage beast duh!!

Ok so we get to Provo and check into the fabulous super classy motel 8, that all the team is mostly staying at, and yes it serves breakfast of more then hard bread and fruit. Kenya and the girls performed from 5-midnight, only to get back to our romm and pass out, but of course showers were needed especially girls in all there ballroom glam. so closer to 2 s.m. we all fell asleep, only to be woken up by our 5 am wake up call, so they could be all nballroomed up and at the provo high school by 7 am. where they performed on and off for most of the day til 10 p.m...

sitting on bleachers for that long is so sweet for the tooshey and bowels, haha.

They did amazing of 7 teams that were there, her team took 2nd 3rd 4th. the other groups from our team also got 1st and 2nds

Kenya personally got a 4th out of 100 couples and a 5th out of 90 couples, does anyone understand the length of time it takes to go thru 100 couples for 4 dances, for 1st round 2nd round quarter final semi final and final.....o holy crud it wears me out right now ;)

Abby got a 5th and a phsyco red head from the group who i would love to smack down got a 4th as well.

We went to Carraba's yum, and bajio and the spagetti factory (wear the girls continued to squeal cuz yes we saw Taylor Lautners clone!!)the next day..and yes we walked across actual grass, that sorry to say does not show in Rexburg because as we were driving home there was a blizzard in and we got 3-4 more inches, ah good times.

The girls highlights were there Ribbons and they got to Meet Luis Van Amstel from Dancing with the Stars, he is short and very sweet..ok and cute..
Also is there anything wrong with watching these 17-19 yr old boys do balroom and feeling a sense of lust...I think not, I blame it on the dance and those dang latin moves!!

we get to do another comp in a couple weeks and there is one this weekend at thanksgiving point in utah. I am going to invest in a butt massuese cuz gosh dangit my toosh gets sore after that freeking long!!
By the way any of you people from Utah should definently get yourselves to a Center Stage performance, they are out of Provo and Orem, they are freeking amazing!!

I can't believe you went to Provo and didn't call Joel or Paul! Shame, shame.

I recently came across your blog and wondered if you'd like to read about BBQ Grill ornaments. It just came to mind.

4th out of 100 means your kid is good at dancing. Good job Kenya. Do you watch Dancing with the Stars? Don't answer, Carrie. I'm still speaking to Kenya.

I do. Sometimes. Last night I watched it for 2 minutes and then I got bored, but I listened as I bathed.

Hey Carrie, you should have called me. Not Joel, though. TOo far.

One time I was in a band that played at Center Stage quite often. We opened for The Mighty Mighty Bosstones there. They were cool. Joel went to that concert and took some footage and then sent that footage to me while I was on a mission. The bass player wore a shirt with a bad word on it. Try and guess which one.

OK, now I'm talking to you, Carrie.

Masseuse is spelled m-a-s-s-...well, you know the rest.

Hey Kenya, did you fall in love with any of your dance partners? That happens sometimes. I think the Hough kid on that Dancing with the Stars did. Or maybe his sister did. I don't think that's right, because all you know about that person is how they dance and deal with stress and smell and act and respond to stimuli, you don't really get to know the person. Well, maybe you do. I guess it's all right.

Anyways, come see my blog about BBQ grill stuff.
