Black Velvet

My friend, Kami, and my M.I.L., Valerie, talked me into taking a dance class at the college last semester. The girls Ballet teacher teaches adult ballet, tap, and jazz classes there. Valerie danced the Polar Express "Hot Chocolate" with the Tap class. We even got to dance in a number for the Holiday Dance Review!! Our dance number was to "Black Velvet" and was wickedly cool!! Maybe I'll figure out how to put it on youtube someday! It was so much fun to get all decked out for the stage again-like in High School but without the peer struggles!!! Kami had never performed like this before so she had a super fun blast!


Unfortunately I forgot my camera and didn't get a good picture of the whole class in our costumes, but this is me and Kami after the show in our elf hats we wore for the finale number.

After the show on the way home I had to immortalize the long lashes I wore. See the sparkles?? Thank goodness for post-Halloween costume sales!!! And thank you Valerie for the RED lipstick!! I can almost get away with it!

Allison sporting the other pair of lashes! She thought she was ready for a show, too! I wonder about that girl sometimes, but then this huge fashionista diva comes out and I know there is a girly girl in there somewhere!!
