School has finally started and Katy is now a 4th grader! Where has the time gone! With school starting that means that dance has started back up. Katy had her Nutcracker audition and was given two parts, a baby lamb and a toy soldier! She also is on her dance team and will be doing 5 competition pieces this year. She'll be doing her team piece, a solo, a duet and will be in two small groups; a jazz and tap group. She's also going to start taking piano lessons and will be swimming with a non-competitive swim club. Whew....so busy!

Jason is working away at Duncan and is getting ready for the Market to Market relay in October.

I'm still working at the child development center and am continuing my work as Office Manager at Dance By Design. We are very excited about the opening of the new studio next month. My duties at the studio have grown past the every day things I do. I'm excited to be more involved with the competition teams this year!!!

I'm also working on my side business of knitting, mainly hats right now. I hope to make it grow and begin working on new things!

Fall is in the air, new beginnings for all of us and I have a feeling it's going to be a great year!
