Center for Ballet Arts Fall Show 2013

The expression, not the actuality I suppose the airplane could run into a flock, but that would be a bad thing. House sitter is ensconced and we head out today to make a quick multi-purpose visit to the D.C. area. Our schedule prevented us from seeing son perform last year. As I have posted on several occasions, he is with the Bowen McCauley Dance Company (http://bmdc.org), but the couple that saw his talent and are responsible for setting him onto the path of professional dance are Bennett and Debbie Savage of the Fairfax Center for Ballet Arts and he teaches there.(http://www.thecenterforballetarts.com)

They have three main performances each year; the Fall Show featuring the older dancers, Nutcracker in a Nutshell, and the Spring Show that showcases all their classes to include some of the cutest Kinderballet students that you will ever see. Anyway, the Fall Show often coincides with son’s birthday and so it is this year. We also have some dear friends that we stay with when they are in town. Everything aligns this year and we will stay with our friends, have the kids come to their place for birthday dinner Saturday, attend the show Sunday, take care of a piece of business Monday and return on the evening flight. Hubby wants to spend some time tomorrow wandering around “the Mall” in DC, taking photos, too. A busy trip for sure, but it will be fun, too.
