P.S. Got the message ladies. Jess and I'll be there for pics around 5:30pm. :) This is fun.

Star on the Door! DancerCam!

Miss Courtney as you know had my camera for awhile. This looks like the first pic she took and one I could never take! Backstage with Miss Molly and mom Betty! Cool! (click pic for larger image. Photo by Miss Courtney!)

Dee Anna, this is how I did it.

This photo is of your daughter Courtney. It was taken when I gave her my camera on comp day. I use Adobe Photoshop CS to process all digital photos. I open each one, resize it to half full-size. I remove red eye and adjust the overall image.

What I did to the one below was use a filter called 'cutout' as I wanted a silhouette. It is a very beautiful photo. I wonder who took it? I'd like to give credit to her. It appears to have been taken on stage. Courtney could be and is a model. The photography is perfect too. Congrats to the photographer.

All the best,
Brian

P.S. Jessica, you were right about the hair tonight. I re-read Miss Carrie's comments below. Hair is down (she will be so happy 'bout that.)

Miriam

As I am sure a lot of you have been following the Eswines site you know that Miriam has made her way to heaven. It was a long weekend for her family. Charlee-lyn spent most of the weekend crying and wondering why God would take such a young girl away from her family. Why he would allow her to feel so much pain. I can not imagine how the Eswine family is dealing with this greif! Please keep them in your prayers.

Your Photo Here

Miss Carrie's Wall of Fame

Miss Carrie has ask me to take everyone's photo Monday at dance. By-the-way, do solos start at 3:30 or should I get everyone during groups?

All the best,
Brian

Moms and Dads

Hi Moms and Dads,

I just wanted to share with you guys an article I just read. I am not sure how to add a link, but it was on the front page of MSNBC.COM, it a News week story called "Predators Playground" it is about "My Space.com" I am sure you have heard about it. All of the kids are using it. It caught my attention because we recently have had some Major Drama in our extended family and their kid's "my space". It has a few things on it, that you or your kids may have not thought of. After reading it Tyler and I talked again about hers....and the scary things that they may not think of. It is worth reading the article.

Brian and Jessica at Competition

I know the girls appreciated you-guys being at competition ALL DAY with them. It goes to show what supportive parents and dancers we have at the studio. Jess, you get around great on those things, even up and down the aisle at Memorial Auditorium. I would have fallen on my face. :)

hugs

Miss Jessica, in a supportive 'Hotel Cali' red choker (spell?) hugs a fellow Phantom dancer as Miss Danielle looks on. In the backgound you'll see Charlee, Mara and Tyler or is Tyler the phantom dancer? (Click pic for larger image. Photo by Brian Ginn.)

I told Jessica I really liked the music you were playing when I came into your class Thurday during Jessica's solo. What were you playing? Jessica said she really liked it too.
Your husband,

Keep The Eswine Family in your Thoughts

Please keep the Eswine family in your thoughts today. I know a lot of you are following her site, Miriams system has begun shuting down. Her pain in these last hours have been undescribable. Please pray that God will release her from her pain! Her family continues to ask for prayers, prayers for Miriam , and now prayers for themselves. I have been very touched by this family. I wish that we could do something for them, but nothing we have to offer would make things better. I cant believe that I am asking God to take a child, but at this point I wish he would wrap his arms around her and take her to a better place. Thank you for taking the time to say a special prayer today, I know it will be heard.

Bye Bye!

Miss Charlee, Tyler, Mrs. Dee Anna and Miss Emily! (Click pic for larger image. Photo by Brian Ginn.)

They were wild tonight!!

Here are the girls practicing their new dance "Picture Perfect". Very cute dance, but they have alot of practicing to do. I think they were testing Mrs. Connie's patience.

Continue to Pray

I just spoke to my sister and Steve recieved an Email from Miriams mom at 2:00am this morning. Hospice had to up her medicine last night and said that she will be making her journey to heaven within hours. Please pray for the Eswine family that they will be strong and continue to follow their deep faith in God. Pray that Jesus leads Miriam home soon and keeps her from pain.
Hug and Kiss your own children and pray that God keeps them healthy. It is so hard to imagine what this family has endured. I have been truely touched my their great faith in God. I feel so selfish to feel depressed over my own small issues! God has blessed each of us with beatiful healthy children we should all feel so BLESSED.
Keep your prayers flowing!!!

The Prayer

When your storm moves inJust trust in Him,
In the storms roarTake shelter in the Lord.
Dance-dance in the rain-have no fear
Dance-dance in the rain-He is there
Dance-dance in the rain-this won’t last
Dance-dance in the rain-the storm will pass
Dance-dance in the rain-He’ll see you through
Dance-dance in the rain-He’ll take care of you

The Power of Prayer

I have a huge favor to ask, there is a young girl 14 years old her name is Miriam. She was a student of my brother in law over in Floyd Knob Indiana. Miriam has cancer and is in her final days on earth. She has been fighting cancer for a very long time. Miriam was a ballerina!! Who loved to dance. Her mom is ready to let her dance her way to heaven. She is asking for PRAYERS, prayers for Miriam her little sister her dad, and for the first time in all of this she is asking for prayers to help make her strong! I know how thoughtful all of you are and I hope that you will keep the Eswine family in your prayers.
They have a website www2.caringbridge.org/In/miriameswine, feel free to visit there website . Their faith , and courage has been unbelievable through all of this!
I thank God everyday for healthy children! I know all of you moms feel the same way. Remember to keep this little girl in your thoughts and prayers! I know God will listen and take Miriam away from her pain. Her mom wrote, " God has finished wallpapering Miriams room in heaven, she is ready to go."

What's That Look All About? LOL

Miss Emily, Miss Carrie, Miss Charlee, and Ms. Becky.
I just love the look on Miss Carrie's face.

DancerCam on Stage!

More of Courtney with my camera. This is Miss Tyler and Courtney on stage at the competition! Who took the pic? (Click pic for larger image.)

We've been sitting on some great news!

Jessica is featured in the Corvette museum's publication "America's Sports Car" this issue! It's been in the works for a month now with the people coming up here to do photographs and story background. You see Jessica saves cans to go toward a Corvette and has all her life. She has also been asked to model for print for their clothing line! (click pic for larger image. Photo's by Debbie of the Covertte museum.) PS. Thanks Jess for helping me spell 'museum' correctly :)

Denise's little girl Alyssa has the brightest smile!
