Soggy Feis

Despite the cold rain, we had a fun and rewarding experience at the
Estes Park Scottish & Irish Festival/Feis! It was so cold and gloomy -
perfect day for staying inside and watching a movie with some hot
chocolate. But we faced the weather (and the kilts)!
Keith and Joseph met us this morning to watch us dance at the feis.
While it was a learning experience for Keith, it was a chance for all
three of us to hang out and see some new things in our beautiul
Colorado.
I danced 6 dances, placing 2nd in treble jig and hornpipe (Emily's
speciality), 1st in reel, slip jig, and traditional set (St. Pats),
and 1st in the Adult Special! I received a trophy seen below. Joseph
took some great pictures that I'll post when I get home. All of my
friends also placed and looked beautiful! Congrats ladies! Special
shout out to Emily for making my hair pretty :)
As for now, we are making Joe's meatloaf with mashed potatoes and
watching the Buckeye game! Go Bucks!!!

  1. Congrats!!! I miss ballet so very much, but don't feel I have the time right now to get back into it. I have always wanted to take classes in Celtic dance - if I knew of a good place in NY for beginners lessons, I would love to learn. The closest I have ever come was three years of clogging in college...not quite the same :)
