Good strategy. Sorry for the delay in getting your comment up – it was accidently redirected to spam.

Hope the girls had as much fun at Flynn’s as we used to

I’m trying to lessen my references to alcohol in my blog posts – afraid some might label me an alcoholic – but I did very much enjoy that glass of wine with dinner at the pub by the river with lovely cooling breezes coming off the water!

I hear you. My girls had short bobs for a reason when they were little!

Miss 5 LOVES it, and loves being on stage. She does jazz, ballet and tap. Next year she’s going to do musical theatre as well 🙂

Tip re hair an make up: do a “bad” job and tell the helper back stage that you just couldn’t get it right and they will find what they need in her bag 😉

I have never been a girly-girl–makeup was only ever a phase and anything my hair couldn’t do on its own was mostly not happening. After three boys, I gave birth to a girl (who is now 17) and while my daughter is not excessively girly, she would like a mom who can at least make a straight braid that doesn’t fall out in fifteen minutes. I guess I should be thankful that we got out of childhood/adolescence without dance classes. 🙂

It might only be once a year but we are going to spend the next 12 months dreading it. I think you were very diplomatic in how you wrote this blog Janine, although it gave me a chuckle that you didn’t mention that the fact that you headed straight to the pub as soon as the doors opened to let us out. Non-dance mums united!!!!

Don’t remind me – It’s going to take a year for me to get ready for the next one!

Go Mary – and you’re old enough to do your own make-up so that’s OK.
