Givens Campout

Last night after the Diamond Dancers Showcase, Brinley and I drove down to meet Cahl and the young women at Givens Hot Springs for their campout. She had so much fun with the other girls in her tent, and we could hear them giggling for hours! Then this morning, after breakfast we packed up camp and headed down to hike Leslie Gulch. There were about 20 girls total and 9 adults, and everyone did awesome! Cahl and I didn't make it all the way to the top, but Brinley did!! It was a wonderful day, and so perfect for her first young women's campout!

Diamond Dancer Showcase

Tonight the high school dance team, the Diamond Dancers, held their spring showcase. They perform all of their routines from the year for the community, and they invite 3-4 other local studios to come and perform too. 2 of the Diamonds work at our studio, so our girls were invited to come and perform one of their routines, and the girls absolutely loved the opportunity! They are in awe of the Diamonds, and so proud to know them and show off their own skills. It was a lot of fun, and I loved watching all the performances!

AIT Graduation

Today Tristan graduated from his Advanced Individual Training, as a CBRN Specialist. He has really enjoyed his training, and can't wait to head out to Fort Drum, New York, which will be his duty station for the next few years!

Band Concert

Tonight was Brinley's band concert, and they did an awesome job! They played 2 songs- "Shine" and "Antagonist," and they sounded great! She really loves band, and has come so far with her trumpet playing!

Brinley's first dance competition of the season was this morning, and they did so well! Both of their routines earned 1st place scores, as well as High Gold!
