What we have been up to lately

We have been incredibly busy since returning from California. While we were in California word came out that the other owner of Auburn Dance opened up her own studio (illegally). Half of the kids from the Xtreme team went over to her studio. It was a lot of drama and a lot of shady things happening. I was happy about the people who left and went to the other studio. They are people who love drama. This past 6 months at dance has been anything but fun with these other parents hanging around the studio. You can feel their bad vibes just walking through the doors. They even created a group name for themselves...the Dead Bones Society. Part of the initiation for at least 2 of the members was to steal something. One had to steal from Lovers Package the other from Walgreens (which was a 13 year old girl). They also called themselves the "Jenn haters" (Jenn is the other owner). Crazy stuff.

When we got home the parents that were left got together and wanted to makeover the studio. Make it nice and fun for the kids that stayed. Cirdan, Jake, Jenny and I are in charge of colors and the layout of the "new" studio. Once the colors were picked we spent 2 full days prepping to paint. We had about 6 others there to help us but it still took FOREVER. Cirdan had to work so he would come help when he could. When it was time to finally paint Cirdan was the one who sprayed the walls. We would get there early and leave around Midnight or later. It was long days but it was so worth it! The studio looks great! It's not even complete yet but the difference is night and day. I should have taken more pre pictures. I need to find out who has some so I can post.
Pre pictures of the inside. There was a lot of pictures that we hanging up but I took the picture after they were already taken down.
