Feis na Cara 2014

I had a great day at the feis last Sunday.  It started with a really bad hair day (the pouf that was supposed to be in front of my wig completely disappeared) but I ended up doing well in my dances.  I got the last 1st place I needed to be completely in Prizewinner, and I was also pleasantly surprised by a Prizewinner 1st in my treble jig.  In my other two dances (reel and hornpipe) I tied with people for 2nds.  At an Irish dance competition, you have to wait a little while after you dance for the scores to be posted.  Below is a picture of me at the scoreboards.

 

 

 

 

Unfortunately, I will not be able to post any movies of me dancing at a feis because taking pictures or movies of people dancing in competitions is prohibited. :(

Today we went sledding at Bomberger's hill, which was really fun, and in the evening we watched Duck Dynasty!

            This is my first post on my new blog!  It's so cool!  There's about six inches of snow on the ground today, and Chanel and Jenna were outside in it.  It's only nine days until Feis na Cara (my Irish dance competition)!!  I'm a bit nervous, but so excited!  I will compete in four dances: reel, slip jig, treble jig and hornpipe.  So, I'm trying to practice as much as I can without getting injuries!
