Ohhh many Nya:wehs

Once again I just had to give a big thanks to the committee, and the participants for taking part of Dalli's special. It was simple and fun. Congrats to Maya & Everett, second was Ascension Harjo & Chanelle Beetso, and third went to Linden Hill and a cute lil jingle dress dancer that I can't remember her name!! *sorry* gotta check the video. I hope the first place dancers liked their lil "powwow travel kit". We tried to put everything in it we know we need for Dalli at pow wows. The powwow was fun-rain and all :) I always have a good time there cuz it's so relaxed. The vendors are amazing- but I didn't make it back before the downpour to get a sweater I wanted *boohoo* LOL I look forward to next year. Good to see everyone there and thanks to everyone to who supported her special! Happy dancing.....
