I'll share it with you. I told Zane I hope he makes top 10 this year. He has been top 20 for three years. But now that he is more mature, (somewhat), I'm in hope he does well. The competition is tough and he competes with others his age however most are a level above him which makes it a challenge sometimes... But he can sure kick both feet in the air above his head and click his heels together very well... Defying gravity somewhat. hehehe... Natalie competes with what is known as 8 hand competition, (group dance) She is also the one that will be in a Riverdance production that will be in Charlotte NC in Sept. The main dancer is from the Riverdance troupe out of Chicago... Any way thought I'd share this proud moment with all my Cutie Friends... :)

No my daughter Jess and kids are there now, I just found out that they don't compete until tomorrow morning... Zane is getting excited. He really wants to do better than top 20... :)

How wonderful. I love to watch the Irish style dance. It is amazing. would love to see pictures. Hope they both do well. The most important thing is that they enjoy what they are doing and train so hard for.

Will do. It is their local theater that is putting it on to my knowledge. The guy from Chicago was the one they had to audition for. Natalie has one solo and one group and one duet. My daughter goes to Charlotte every Sat. to take the kids to dance.

Shirlene the kids have been dancing for 8 years and competing about 6 yrs at various Irish Feiana (competition).Natalie is 14 and Zane is 12. Jess makes the girls dresses (including Gracie 10) For Zane she makes his pants, vest and cumberbund when he wears them...
