Lights, Camera, Austin....

Austin had his television debut this morning!

We had a rather unexpected surprise this morning. We took Amber to ballet and I had offered to drive Mrs. White (Director of Pennsylvania of Ballet) to Philadelphia for an interview. She was going to talk to the Philadelphia School District Spanish classes via a television program. She brought 2 dancers wither her to show some ballet ect. When we got there she asked Austin if he would be on the show too. At first he said, "No, I am too young." But after a little coaxing he agreed. He answered some questions and demonstrated first position and some jumps! He made us proud when he answered the question Do you like ballet? correctly. His usual answer is "sometimes” but he answered on T.V. "I love it!" I was able to watch the show from the booth and it was so fun! He was so funny at the end of the show when they asked the "dancers" to just do some stuff until they faded out and Austin was dancing behind the 2 girls. It was a sight! I am trying to get a copy of it and when I do I will post it for all to see.





Also this Sunday on PBS they are showing MIRROR DANCE at 7 p.m. This is the movie about Mrs. White and her life. You should all try to watch it. It is a fabulous story. We are so lucky to have the privilege to study with them. If you would like more information on the film you can to http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/mirrordance/ for more info.
