After a summer of hip hop classes Emily was ready to show us her moves. But first we had to wait in the parking lot for an hour. I had the foresight to park by an island of bushes and a tree. We looked out at the bushes and noticed what seemed to be small grizzly looking pine cones. When we looked closer we noticed the were twitching, and there was a strange snap, crackle and pop sound. The tree about had weird web strings holding more pin cones to the branches. These were no pine cones. When we got out of the car we learned they were cicada chrysalises. Truly, truly, truly disgusting. Click on the pictures to make them larger and you will see just how disgusting they are. There were hundreds of them hanging from the bushes. The boys loved it.
Emily can really dance. She is improving quickly. Her recital was themed as cheerleader/ballerinas who thought the football player hip-hoppers were stupid, but all end up friends dancing the night away. It was cute.
