Redesigned Website is Up!

It's taken a little while to get it all up but the new and improved Abbasubi website is alive! We decided it was time to make our website a little bit more complete and easy to use.

Here's what's new and different!
- It's prettier. Lots of pretty colors.
- There's video on the home page! You can see us dancing around without having to wait even one second.
- There's a whole new Fun Stuff section with coloring sheets and drawing sheets. We'll add more fun stuff as we find it!
- There's a nice news section on the home page to see the latest that's going on.
- There's a Press section with reviews of the CD and testimonials from people that have seen us. If you'd like to add your comments to the page, please email me at charles@abbasubi.com

Hope you like what you see. Please email me with comments!

Cold but Fun at the Cortelyou Tot Lot

Okay so when we got to the Tot Lot, it was definitely cold. Every time the wind blew, there was an audible groan from the adults. The kids seemed pretty focused on waiting for Santa. In fact, we were basically the warm-up act for Santa and the kids between pretty much every song asked when Santa would arrive.

But as usual, the kids were wonderful in spite of the weather. They danced with us, wore the special Santa hats we gave out for El Baile del Sombrero, and even sang along with our special holiday songs we prepared for the show. We ended with a rousing version of Feliz Navidad just as Santa came in and started giving out presents.

We did most of the show holding Chloe and Kylen, and I think that may prove to be the main advantage of these new headset mics we have. We can now do the show holding our children in our arms. It was really fun to be a part of such a nice holiday tradition right in our backyard.
