Happy Holidays! Christmas is one of my favourite times of the year. The smell of cookies baking in the oven and the decorating of the Christmas tree are just a couple of my favourite and fondest memories of Christmas. Many of you might or might not know, but I Irish dance as a hobby. It is something I truly enjoy and I have been taking classes/lessons for many years now. Last week I was asked to perform with my dance school (Ryan School of Irish Dance) at their annual Christmas performance. Since returning home from Ireland I have not really practiced my steps or been to class. In rehearsal though, I was dancing away and learning all the new dances and steps in no time at all. The performance was just lovely and words cannot describe the emotions I felt while listening and dancing to music that is so much a part of who I am. Below is a small clip of a few dances I was in. Enjoy!
Love Always,
Amanda

Birthday Weekend Celebration
Last weekend I turned 27! To celebrate this event, I did what any 27 year old would do - I went duck hunting with my dad. We woke up at 4am Saturday morning and left the house around 4:30 to head for Gueydan, Louisiana.
Before the sun rose we were already in the duck blind watching the stars in the sky and listening to all the ducks and geese flying around us. It was an experience I will never forget!
As the sun rose I could not help taking tons of photos!
All in all I had a wonderful day. I did not kill any ducks, but I did have an experience of a lifetime.
