So, sorry if your get hungry.  [I love blue and cupcakes] [Home made pizza sauce!!]  [I am so hungry right now]  [Doesn't this make you want to watch a movie?] [I made these for thanksgiving because I hate pumpkin pie.

Haha.]  Note: Everything posted that is either written or a picture is mine. I ask that my pictures are to not be downloaded or used in any way unless stated otherwise.

I was just look through my camera roll on my phone and found some gorgeous pictures that I took last summer. So, I hope your brain enjoys these lovely things! (I went on a hike last summer to a beach and this is some pretty trees I saw)  (Here is the beach we went to) (I love the Hood Canal. The water actually looked teal yesterday.) (Ok so this is a spider I found. Isn't it lovely!) (I named it something but I can't remember what. So lest just call it Jasper)                                                                    (Can you spot it?)  (Looks like Jasper found a new home. To be honest he matches better in this flower anyway.)  Note: Everything posted that is either written or a picture is mine. I ask that my pictures are to not be downloaded or us...

Pointe Shoes Part 2 of 2

The Old and The New Yes, pointe shoes get old after lots of use. I replace mine every 6 months but other dancers can even replace them every month its crazy and expensive. I'm going to take you through the steps of getting new pointe shoes: #1 Pointe shoes so not come with the ribbons attached so you have to sew them on. For me the sewing process takes a bout an hour and a half but it ranges for each dancer.  #2 After the sewing comes the breaking in portion. I don't know if you have ever had a pair of hiking  but they don't feel the greatest if you do not wear them around the house for a couple hours before you go hiking. This is almost the case with pointe. But with pointe shoes it is quite more extensive and painful. You have to beat on them with hammers and do lots of exercises.  (Pointe Shoe Quotes) #3 After the pointe shoes are broken in you reach a middle phase. The middle phase is when the pointe shoes are broken in and don't hurt so bad. Its the...

As, I mentioned in other blog posts I am a dancer. I am studying jazz, tap, ballet, pointe and modern. I am here to answer some myths and give you a basic understanding  about pointe dancing and shoes.  There is actually a myth that ballet is actually damaging and alters your body. The altering yes. The damaging no. Ballet does not damage your body IF your doing it correctly. Let me say that again. Ballet does not damage your body IF you are doing it correctly. If you do the moves incorrectly you can really damage your body. But if you listen to the corrections that your dance teacher is giving you you will be fine. Dancers (but ballet dancers particularly) are trained to actually turn out there legs and put all their weight in the balls of there feet. If you ever notice a dancer leaning forward slightly that's because they are putting there weight in the balls of there feet like they trained hours and hours to do. Normal people that actually don't dance ballet put there we...

(I think that my favorite part of snow is seeing our house. In my opinion I think that our house is simply beautiful in the snow!)  (A Red Huckleberry bush cover in snow) (ooooh la la) (The boys are trying to sled) (My dad made this snow man and put it on our mail box. He called it "ultimate praise" or something.) (You can kind of see my beautiful Olympics) (The trees are so pretty!!!) Note: Everything posted that is either written or a picture is mine.

So, here are some pictures hope you enjoy! :) (On our way to Sioux Falls to see my moms family we took a detour to the Black Hills) (Oh the Beautiful Badlands!)
