sage's strut.

today our sweet sage is one week old.  she's learning so much already.  in an effort to raise our gal to be as well rounded as possible, we've already begun dance lessons.  we've been impressed with her progress.  she knows how to make her mommy and daddy proud... let's just say we have a so you think you can dance prodigy on our hands {no, i'm not biased at all}.


example one: a celtic jig

example two:  a bit of hip hop



p.s. - i hope to catch up on your blogs soon... as you might imagine, i've been a bit preoccupied.  : )
