TCD Spring Repertory 2012

Next weekend is TCD's spring repertory show!  The show will include Twyla Tharp's "Baker's Dozen" presented by the Alabama Ballet, and "Les Sylphides" presented by the UA Department of Theatre and Dance.  TCD will perform Snow White to close the show.  If you have a child who is only interested in seeing Snow White, you should come to the Saturday matinee performance of Snow White only, where we will have a special party with children's activities and photo opportunities with the Snow White characters.  An opening night gala and silent auction will follow Friday night's performance.  The silent auction will include pointe shoes decorated by a local artist to represent some of the Snow White characters, and there will also be refreshments available.  You do not want to miss this show!  

Call the TCD box office for tickets at (205) 752-4220.  For ticket prices and more information, check out the website at www.TuscaloosaCommunityDancers.com.  

It's Been Awhile

I apologize for not posting anything recently, but our lives just haven't been all that exciting until very recently!  I FINALLY found a job!  I am working as an associate at Newell & Holden in Tuscaloosa.  If you need any legal help, I encourage you to give us a call.  I started work officially yesterday, and I hit the ground running.  They loaded me up with several projects immediately, but I'm glad; lots of work=job security.  Thank you for your prayers while I was job hunting; we persevered, and God answered in his time.  Mr. Newell told me that if this works out, it's got to be a God thing, because they were not even looking for an associate when they received my resume.  I can't say that Atticus and Macy are too thrilled about the change, as they have become accustomed to me being at home with them all day.  They let me know loud and clear--Atticus follows me around yowling and Macy stands at the door with the saddest, most disappointed face she can muster.

In other news, Chris is currently in Reno, Nevada on an audit trip.  I made him promise not to gamble all our money away, but they have slot machines in the airport there, so I'm keeping my expectations low.

On Valentine's Day, Chris and I went to the Alabama basketball game.  He gave me some cute pink elephant sweatpants, and I gave him some funny socks that look like a shark is eating your leg.  I also made him some red velvet cupcakes from scratch!  They surprisingly turned out really tasty, so I might continue to test out my baking skills.  As my grandmother says, "They'll make you swallow (or swaller, if you pronounce it correctly) your tongue."

It's a lovebug!

Victoria is in the States for a little while!  She, Drew, Colin, Riley, and I went to La Paz in Mountainbrook for dinner last week.  I haven't seen them in a while, so it was really nice to spend some time together.

We're having a Crimson Cabaret reunion on Saturday, so I'm really looking forward to that.  We're getting together to eat and socialize, and then we're going over to the basketball game.  It's hard for people who live out of state to make it, so we will have a small group, but I'm looking forward to seeing some girls I haven't seen in a long time.

That's all the updating I can think of for now!

Love,
Jillerina :*
