40 Below and Lots of Snow!

Hello Everyone

Hope you are having a fantastic February where ever you might be. We just spent last weekend in Thompson, Manitoba performing at their Winterfest. We flew into Winnipeg then it we switched planes and got on a 30-seater and flew north for another 2 hours.

Such a beautiful area......but very chilly. Although we were told it was actually quite warm compared to what it had been the week before!

We bundled up and did a walk around tour before our show:


We came across a 10-storey wolf mural, an exact reproduction of Robert Bateman’s wolf sketch ...or was it real????? Taes wasn't sure:


After we thawed out we headed to the theatre to perform in front of a great crowd with lots of singing and dancing energy. Here is the beautiful R.D. Parker Letkemann Theatre where we performed.

The next morning the weather dipped down to 40 below but the sun made everything sparkle...and my nose almost fall off.


Thanks to the wonderful people in Thompson for making our trip such fun one.

We are now back at home working away...planning our next tour. Check our Schedule to see if we will be in a town near you: http://www.splashnboots.com/

Hope everyone is staying warm and singing lots. Spring is right around the corner...!

Bye for now

Love,

A new year and new home ...

Hello from our new home!

We have spent the last week and a half moving into our new home in Toronto, Ontario...aka Splash'N Boots headquarters. We spent the day painting with the colour "Dill" and now have green paint in our hair, but have successfully finished one room!

We had an amazing show last week in Kingston, Ontario at Holy Family School. It was a special evening concert for Literacy Week. A few days before the show we got an email from four Grade 8 Girls who were learning one of our songs to perform for the younger kids during the day at school to promote the show. They had picked the song "Razoo" and wanted some help with some of the moves. Little did I know that "The Razoo" was going to become a full-fledged dance number. These girls could dance! They ended up teaching me most of the moves, and performed it with us on the evening of the concert. (video footage to come!!) Thanks to Danni, Sammi, Megan and Chelsea "The Razoo" has become our new favorite show-song!

Here they are posing in "Razoo Position" after the concert:

If you are in the Barrie area we will be appearing in the A-Channel Morning Show this coming Friday around 7am. Get ready to do the Pirate Dance in your Pj's...!

Also this Saturday we will be performing at the Algonquin Theatre in Huntsville, ON:
