The Journey to a New Dress

And now a Katrine post, just in case you thought we had forgotten her.  Of course she has been skating, skating and skating; working on her new program to get ready for her upcoming competition.  She has also been waiting for her new dress.  She LOVES it and it seems to fit really well.  Pressure is now on mom to get the hair and make up just right.  Wish me luck, I hope that I am up to the task.

Here is her journey in pictures:

1. Look at how excited she is to begin.
