Christopher's teacher said he's progressing well and gave him the green light to participate in a feis (pronounced "fesh"). His first feis will probably be in April in town but according to several parents I've spoken too, we may eventually be taking trips to South Dakota, Arkansas, Kentucky and Chicago for these things! And to think we were avoiding hockey because of the travel!

Irish Dance
So in the beginning of November, Christopher started taking Irish dance at The O'Riada Manning School of Irish Dance. To put it mildly, Christopher loves it! He's picked up the steps quickly and has learned a handful of basic dances, like the reel, light jig, treble jig and hornpipes. (This world is very new to me so I'm learning all the terms, steps and dances too!). They have soft shoe dances and hard shoe dances (the latter is the coolest!). Here is a video of Chris dancing a treble jig in his hard shoes. He's only allowed to dance in the house in the laundry room or basement with the hard shoes because they scuff up the hardwoods!
