I wanted to take a picture of my tap shoes. And show that they really do get used. I took up tap one year ago this month and I haven't looked back. I've found something that I really enjoy doing. There are many days when I've come home from a 12 hour work day and I'm so darned tired. I'll lay on the sofa and wish I could just veg. there the rest of the night. But then I drag myself off and grab my tap shoes and off I go to my class. We laugh and laugh so hard at some of the things we say and do that after it's all said and done I'm so glad that I went. We've learned so much this past year and I'm loving it. 
I took tap when I was a young girl. Maybe 10 or so. I even remember the name of the song we did a dance to. "We don't like boys, they always pull our hair". I remember the outfits we wore etc. I never picked up another pair of tap shoes until last summer when I got a flyer on my doorstep about a lady that's starting to give tap lessons. I knew the instant I saw that that I wanted to take. So I got my best friend Lora and my daughterinlaw Kristi to take with me and we've had so much fun. It's only $25.00 a month for a 1 hour lesson each week. The time goes by so fast when you're having fun. 
We had our tap recital on June 2nd, 2012 at the Pleasant Grove Jr. High School. We did 3 dances. One to Jailhouse Rock, Sams Song and another short dance with the other classes. I had some family members come. Rog, Kayleen, Kay, Cyndee, Presley, Jared and the girls. I'm so excited to continue to learn more and more and get better and better. Who would have thought I'd be tap dancing at my age which is 53 this month.
