::Hello everyone! I'm doing a 3 day count down to Christmas!! I'm using cute pictures of babies.

4 Days left!!::

::Hello. I've got leave for dance soon so I'll make this quick. I found a picture of the leotard I got. It looks like this except the colour of mine is called sapphire. Mom said it matches my eyes. I don't have time for the tip because I've got to get ready. Bye::

::My 12th Birthday::

::Hello. Here is the post about my birthday that I should have promised in my last post. My birthday started with sleeping in until 8:00 or 8:30. When I came downstairs Dad was busy making the waffles I had requested for earlier. The Van Dyk birthday tradition is we get to chose all three meals for our special day. So I chose waffles. Before we ate I opened my presents. It had three parts. For the first part, I got a sleepover guide for 4 year olds that me and my friends can have fun with being dorky and pretending we're little kids. Part number two was a pair of chopsticks someone from my dad's work brought back from China. Part three was The Blood of Olympus by Rick Riordan. It's the latest of the series The Heroes of Olympus. After we had finished our waffles with whipped cream and berries, Dad left for work, and me and Mom started to clean up a bit. Once all everything was put away and cleaned up, we got ready to go to Grammie's house. We picked up Aunty Karin on our way because we were going to make our own Christmas Crackers. It was an experiment that Mom wanted to try because she wanted better little gifts inside of it and she thought making them would be fun. So far it's going great. I would say what some of the adults got but some of them might be reading this post. The girls are getting green wrappers with sparkly white reindeer and the boys are getting red wrappers with little tin soldiers with green suits all over. I don't know what the kids are getting. Me and Gabe ran down to Bread By Us and some pastries and cookies. At 1:00 dad came and picked up the kids(Gabe, Lij, and baby) and Aunty Karin and Sarah. I finished eating and me and Mom started on my birthday outing. First up was the Bibles for Missions thrift store that Oma works because she had a cad for me. Then we went to a theatrical/dance store called Malabar where I got a new leotard. It is blue with designs on the front and back. I love it. After that we went to a few stores and then we went to an awesome sushi place called  Hockey Sushi. Hockey Sushi is my favourite place for sushi and other fishy foods. Whoever likes seafood should check it out. Then we made a quick stop at  My Sister's Closet before going home. then we went to bible study at Samantha and Eric's house. I got to hold Teddy for the first time. That was my birthday. Here is today's Tip to remember or you'll regret it. Don't eat to much seafood. Have a good rest of the week and I will write to you in a week or so. Bye!!::

::I'm SO excited::

::Hello everybody. You're probably wondering why this post is called what it is. This is why. Today is the 15th, which means that tomorrow is the 16th. My birthday is on the 16th, which means that tomorrow is my birthday. That is why I'm excited. Wait, that's not the only reason I'm excited. I'm also excite because this week is Parent Observation Week at dance. POW is when parents or relatives come and watch all your classes. Now, that is ALL the reasons why I'm excited. I've kind of been ignoring my blog, so I will be writing on my blog at least once a week. Maybe more if I have something interesting I need to write about. I'll write soon about how my birthday went. Have a good rest of the week. Today's tip to remember or you'll regret it is: don't leave your blog to long or people will stop checking it often::

::Hello::

::Hi everybody. I'm SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SORRY I haven't written in a looooooooooooooooooooong time. I hope you can forgive me. Life has been busy. I'm excited for September. Not for school, but for dance. Classes start Monday September 8, 2014. My weeks will get very busy. Prepare for a long schedule. On Mondays I'll have Grade 5 Ballet from 6:15 to 7:30 and Intermediate Jazz from 7:30 to 8:30. I got asked to join the Arise Youth Ballet{the Company}, but I'm not allowed to join because I can't make it to a certain event called Summer Intensive Week. It's a full week of dance every day from morning to evening. It's mandatory that you do the Summer Intensive if you want to join company. I can't make it because I'm in P.E.I. that week. I'm sad I can't join.  So I would have had Company classes from 3:45 to 7:00. On Thursday an Intermediate Open class from 3:45 to 5:15, Pre-Pointe{preparing for pointe}from 5:15 to 6:15, and Elementry Contemporary from 6:15 to 7:15. So a very busy week. 6 classes. Now, Tip to Remember or You'll Regret It: Don't eat alot of Watermelon. I hope you have a good rest of the Summer. Bye::

::Dance::

::Hello. I know I haven't written in awhile. I'm sorry. I'm not very good at remembering to write. I'm going to write about what's been going on around dance. We started learning our dance for recital in jazz and ballet. The song for out jazz dance is Live With Abandon by Newsboys (click on the name to listen to the song). The son for ballet is Bless the Lord by Jeff Deyo (again, click on the name to listen). We tried on our costumes for ballet and jazz already. I really like them. The recital's are in June, one of them is June 7(Saturday) at 2:00, and to other is June 8(Sunday) at 6:30. I think it's weird that one of the recitals is on a Sunday. I won't be able to make to evening worship that day. :( I'll post picture after the recital. I know it isn't for awhile, but I'm really excited. Post to you later::
