arizona!

well first of all, yes it was so dang hot! i could feel my legs burning 2 min. after getting off the plane. it was 114 when we got there, and cooled off to 104(thank goodness. that was bearable).
so me, my mom, and katie went to scottsdale for a dance teacher/owner convention. we had such a great time. unfortunately i don't have all the pics i took while i was there(check katie's blog to see if she has them). we used two cameras. but i do have good ones.
the trip consisted of shopping, reading(Twilight Series), classes, reading, shopping, more classes, Breaking Dawn Midnight Party(yeah!!!), more reading, reading, and classes. pretty sure mom wanted to kill us after the first day cause me and katie could not put our books down.
beside all the wonderfull informational classes, we were able to take classes from some big wigs such as Joe Tremaine, Desiree Robins, Joe Lanteri, Greg Russell, Ray Leaper, and so on. we were also lucky enough to get to see famous dancers such as Travis Wall, Ivan and Jamie (sorry dont remember last names, So You Think You Can Dance). they were amazing!
