Our Final Dancesport...

Chris's ninth... Robyn's fifth... Our last...
Yes, March 2009 marks the final U.S. National Amateur DanceSport Championships in which we compete.


However, this competition was also a special one for firsts...
Let's look at some of them...

First time competing together as hubbie and wife...

First time of amazingly crazy
spaghetti-woven, snake-laced,
wow-the-judges hair...

Everyone loved it...

First time competing the mambo...

First time winning!!!
(At least for Chris... Robyn began winning long ago... She finally brought him along...)

Here are our trophies. It appears my little trophy man was so happy that he tried to dive away. Actually, they snapped him off by the ankles a couple minutes before the awards ceremony. Oops. He had scotch tape splints when I received him. Fortunately, he was later admitted to the trophy hospital for a more permanent repair.

HiP hIp HuRrAy!!!
