I danced at church with my sister yesterday. We did This Baby, by: Steven Curtis Chapman. Here is the video. It was an amazing experience to be dancing and trying to proclaim the birth of Jesus. Thanks for reading, Anna-Lee

Hello everyone that is looking at this,  As most of you know I do OYOA (Ottawa Youth Orchestra Academy). This year I was in Senior Winds Ensemble. The conductor is my actual teacher Shauna McDonald which was great. I love having only one opinion now! I forgot last time to tell you that my OYOA concert was Sunday! It went well, like always there were little mishaps like there weren't enough chairs put out for everyone in our ensemble! That was funny. We played Pictures in a Exhibition, The Titan, and The March of the Dwarfs. My favorite piece we did was Pictures in an Exhibition. It was a very fun piece. My dad figured out how to put videos on our blogs. I hope that all of you can hear it perfectly. Thanks for reading and hope that you enjoy the music, Anna-Lee                                                           This is Pic...

Hello everyone, I hope that you are feeling well. I just got back from ballet and repertoire. It went well. We are working on Cinderella. I am a ball guest. It is a very complicated dance, but I like a challenge. Our first dance is in her dream of the ball. It is a short dance but we do add effect! Thankfully my teacher is happy with us. Our second dance is the real ball. We are trying to get the prince to look at us. It is a much funner dance. We have partners that we dance with. It gets more difficult when you are dancing with a partner because you have to be in complete unison. Our third dance is at there wedding. It is a huge pleasure to be in the wedding. I am super happy about being in it. Thank you for reading, Anna-Lee  

Hello everyone that is reading this, Do you like snow? I know that it can't be winter without snow and freezing temperatures. It just can't, the word winter means cold in my book. I was talking to my Spanish teacher today. You know what it was doing there (in Guatemala) pouring rain, humid, hot, thundering and lightning.  It amazes me how some people never see snow even on Christmas. But us Canadians are so used to it that it feels all wrong when we don't have snow. As most of you know I ski. I bet that this weather is really bad for the ski hills!! I hope that I can ski soon I really miss it. Winter in Canada is so much more different than winter in Florida, and when it is different it feels strange almost scary. Us humans want things to stay the same. We don't like change, I don't like change either. But I can't change that. So I try to be happy with whatever.    Now, on December 14th 2015. This is what it looks like.       ...

Hello everyone, Last week was very busy. I finished the last performance of Sleeping Beauty. It was our very last time doing it. As you know I was a courtier and smoke. Our smoke dance was very interesting as it felt like rush hour with getting cut off and everything. Les Petits Ballets was on CTV Friday morning to advertise our shows. Attached is the link to the video. The best way to see it is on their Facebook. I hope that you enjoy it. https://www.facebook.com/LesPetitsBallets As always we had a few small incidents and again we can laugh at them now!  Our main female dancer danced amazingly. I didn't expect less until I realized that she had the stomach flu. She nearly fainted on stage. It was amazing to see the dedication that she had! One of the advanced dancers fell down the stairs and hurt her toe badly (she lost her big toenail!), then she had to dance on pointe!!! Again our smoke was a disaster at first. We finally got it under control though! Lots of people on ...

Hello everyone, Have you ever not liked people and then realized that you had a bad first impression? I have and I know how it makes me feel to know that I didn't like one of God's masterpieces. Another thing is have you ever felt like you're not loved by anybody? I have too. But now I know that even if there is nobody on earth that loves me, God loves me. Have you ever learned about Abraham Lincoln? If you have not you should. I have learned some stuff over the past couple of months about Abraham. One of his quotes is quite encouraging.          Yesterday I started my week of Centerpoint. My show is this weekend and I am starting to get nervous. Yesterday while we were dancing as dragon's smoke a girl accidentally hit me with her sword in the cheek. I have quite the headache though it was worse last night! There were a couple of other incidents too. I hope with all my might that it will be smooth today and for all the shows.     ...
