Feis Results - He Won!!

Posted in Celtic Events

 

Good Morning, Dear Reader!  Since I'm sure you were on pins and needles in anticipation of yesterday's feis results, I won't keep you in suspense a moment longer!  Jigger received one 4th place, one 2nd place, and his very First Ever 1st place!!  In the lingo, he medalled in three out of his five dances and moved up in two categories - YEA!!!!!

 

                                

 

He is coming along so well for only having begun lessons a year ago.  We are so proud of you, Jigger!!!!  We love you!!

Dad, Mom and Piper
