Higley Center for the Performing Arts
December 11, 2010
Starring Keira & her dance class dancing to Frosty the Snowman

Showtime!

The tall snowman on the far right is Little Miss Keira! The cutest little Snowman ever dancing away!

Keira and her class did such a good job out on the big stage all by themselves!

Sydney and Keira posing with their Christmas ring pops after their performance! Wish I could of got a picture of Keira with her adorable snowman costume on, but they had already changed her out of it by the time I got backstage to pick her up!

Video of Keira at dance class practicing her Frosty dance routine! This video is much better than the one I took at the Holiday Showcase as you can actually see Keira's face! I love how at the end she is blowing kisses! LOL! Hit the link below to watch it:

The two koalas are new at the zoo! The koalas sleep all day except when they wake them up twice a day to feed and weigh them.

We lucked out to see the koalas awake during their second feeding time of the day! Koalas are so cute!

My little cutie pie!

We got a good laugh at this ape who was just relaxing with his hands behind his head and one leg resting on his knee!

Keira loves animals and there is nothing better than to see animals close up at a zoo! Taking Keira on her field trip to the the Phoenix Zoo was so much fun! The December weather was perfect to walk the zoo. We got a lot of exercise along the way!

Fun with Santa at the Movies!

The Fryer kids and Santa 2010! I always love getting this photo each year of my kids!

Story time with Santa!

Carson was chosen to help Santa with his magic trick! Carson was given a few sheets of tissue paper.

Santa had Carson tear the paper and put the tissue paper into a ball. Santa placed the paper in the palm of Carson's hand!

Carson opened his hand and Santa took out the torn and wadded paper and unfolded it!

To everyone's surprise the torn and wadded paper had turned into a Santa Hat!

Santa placed the hat on Carson and Carson proudly wore that hat the rest of the day!

Movie time with Santa! We watched the never before seen on the "Big Screen" movie, Santa Buddies! Very cute movie by Disney. Keira saw Santa sitting by himself and she decided to join him.

Carson decided to join Santa too!

Santa got a phone call from Mrs. Claus and had to head back to the North Pole before the movie was over.

A Walk Across the Hoover Dam Bypass Bridge!

The Mike O’Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, also known as the Hoover Dam Bypass, is the 2nd highest bridge in the United States and the 14th highest in the world! We have watched this bridge be built over the past few years and were so excited to see it finally open!

Look at this amazing bridge soaring 890 feet in the air that we walked and drove across! I still can't believe I did it with having such a fear of heights!

This sign was in the parking lot before we headed up the stairs and ramp leading to the bridge! I just about turned around after reading how risky of a thing I was about to do!

The stairs and ramp that we hiked to get to the bridge!

The bridge links Nevada and Arizona!

The pedestrian lane is on the north side, facing the dam!

Keira and Carson getting ready to cross the bridge from the Nevada side! It was very windy up on the bridge!

A view of the Hoover Dam from the bridge!

Mark crossing the bridge!

Carson!

I had Cayden a nervous mess going across the bridge! He stayed glued to the wall while walking across the bridge! That is Mark and Keira in the distance looking over the not high enough rail!

The fearless three coming back from the Arizona side of the bridge!











I am scarred of heights, but talked myself into looking 89o feet below! So glad I did!

This is what I saw when I looked over! AMAZING! My pictures don't do it justice!

Cayden back on the Nevada side of the bridge!

After walking across the bridge, we drove down below the bridge to the Hoover Dam! What an awesome experience we had walking the new Hoover Dam Bypass Bridge!
