Saturday at the Feis

First there were some soft shoe reels and jigs.

A quick shoe change and it was time for the hard shoe dances.

Here are Addy’s people who came out to watch this time around.

The first day of Feis At the Falls was in the books for our crew. Sunday would be another morning filled with dancing.

We all drove to a great Mexican spot, Birriería El Sazón Spokane on Sprague in Spokane Valley for our lunch. Addy was the most famished of all of us after all her nonstop dancing and shoe changes! We highly recommend this spot but beware…the portions are huge!

Back at the hotel there was an afternoon of swimming before the crew landed in our room for Charcuterie that Dan and Jamie hauled to Spokane in their trusty cooler. It was quite a spread that we all enjoyed including home made pickles, sourdough and summer sausage!

The orange watermelon from a friend’s farm was so delicious!

We had a nice large corner room in the hotel so it was comfortable to gather and enjoy each others company before we called it a night. An early night since our little dancer would be on stage bright and early on Sunday.

Since our hotel room only had 3 chairs available both Josh and Dan rolled the office chairs from their rooms to our room for our gathering. Josh and Laura were 9 floors up from us and Dan and Jamie were 5 floors up from us so they made quite a sight rolling their chairs and the cooler down the elevators and down the hall to our room!

The littles decided they would ride on their way back to their rooms.

Uncle is always ready to accommodate these two.

 

Spokane

We just returned home from 3 days in Spokane. It is Sunday evening and I have little energy and less creativity to compose a post for Monday. I’ll leave you with this fountain on Spokane Falls Blvd. We walked by this fountain on our way to the restaurant where we enjoyed a meal Friday evening. Our Saturday and Sunday were all about the Annual Deirdre Abeid Memorial Feis hosted by Haran School of Irish Dance. Our granddaughter is part of the Haran School of Irish Dance.

Soon I’ll share what we experienced on Friday in Spokane and then I’ll share about our family time at the Feis on Saturday and Sunday.

We had a nice hotel room with some sunset views that we enjoyed.

I have not been visiting blogs since we left on Friday. I hope to catch up soon.

Have a great new week.
