The Dance Congress is now on DanceCore

Part of our trip to Provo included a wonderful congress that encouraged us in our current core initiated endeavors.

Books I'm reading...

It's hard to read books that you don't agree with. I had to stop reading one recently because it made my blood boil - it's hard to sleep when you're frustrated - and I read before I sleep. (Lovely sentence structure right? Chuckle.)

I read ThetaHealing, which was an awesome book. I recommend reading it with the Doctrine and Covenents (attached to the Book of Mormon).

I just read the original Peter Pan...grotesque.

Joseph Smith History by his Mother Lucy Mack Smith was very interesting as well. She has an interesting perspective on Joseph's life. Somewhat biased, but what mother isn't?

Then I read Hercules, though I'd have to check the author. It makes me realize how many of our beliefs are Greece based.

I am currently reading the journals and writings of Joseph Smith, the Doctrine and Covenants, and the Communist Manifesto. The last one is difficult to digest, but I feel that the current climate of the US directs me to become more articulate about the ideals that I oppose.

Brian's stuffed chicken recipe is now on the new blog.

If you have other amazing recipes that are healthy or tasty that we can make into a soy-free delectable treat please let me know. I love to try recipes and then post them.

Check out my food blog. I always love to share a delicious recipe!

I have put several recipes on it already. I only will post recipes I have actually tried and like. I hate getting a dud.

Most of the recipes you will find are either old or are new but almost completely from scratch. Try your hand at it.

The foodstorage you have is hard to use unless you know how to cook it from scratch. So we'll give you tips on how to use those hundred lbs of beans, and other useful ideas.

This is Aydin Aksoy, a new friend of ours. He is the Vice President of the USA Dance chapter we joined. It was due to his and others' hard work that this competition in Long Beach was so successful.

He is awesome. We had a great time talking with him. We must have charmed him. He said we were his "favorite couple" and he was so sincere we know it's true. Just don't tell anyone else. :) He also gave us a nifty device that allows five headphones to connect to one Ipod, or two ipods to connect to four speakers. Talk mixer fun. Mmmmmhmmmm.

The pictures are from Aydin. Isn't he great?



This is a great shot of the new dress Kristy Made. Brian is also sporting the Shirt Kristy made for Smooth. It works. We think next time he'll use the vest as well.
Check out those Jepp/S pants. Nice eh?



This is Kristy's favorite part of the new dress: Swish, Swish.
The weight of the fabric bounces off of my knees and gastroc. It's very fun.



We made a few lovely friends at this competition. It is so nice to meet such wonderful people when we travel so far from home.

Social dance couples will have the opportunity to spend two hours with individual time learning steps and technique.
