Dance

   Last year the other kids got to take soccer but Halle wanted dance.  She LOVES it.  She is taking tap, jazz and her very own Halle hip-hop style.  I was worried that she would be nervous on stage.  (I took dance and hated dancing on stage, so I assume everyone is like me.)  Not so you would notice with her, she was all smiles and show!                                                                                                                                     
Sentimental Bit Ahead:  Mike got to come with some of the boys he works with and it made her day that he was there.  I can tell her a million times how good, pretty, talented, smart ect. she is, but it doesn't mean anything until Dad says it.  I think that is where kids learn long term self-esteem - from a Dad.  A mom always says nice things that make you feel good, but when Dad says it, it is different.  I know it was for me, and I see it  in my kids.  I don't think it is an accident that we have a Mom and a Dad, infact it is truly inspired.



 I think Grandpa Richard put it best when he said, "I liked when Halle did Halle's dance."  The girl has some moves, they just weren't always choreographed!

I have NO doubt that, that girl has moves. And she probably got them from Grandma Jenny...
Super cute.

I personally think her dance moves came from her Petersen side.. if you have ever seen Mike and Kelly dance you'd totally agree with me. :-) Rooney

Hmmm, I think one of her close relatives lives at my house. ;)

I think see is to cute for her own good, and you should consider moving out to the outback, (like McDermitt)
