End of Year Recital

 
The dance season is over and what a fun year it was. She absolutely loved it and adored her teachers. This week was her end of year recital. The day before the actual recital they had pictures and dress rehearsal. She smiled so big and made me so proud.
 


Doz, Kristin and Penleope moved to Iowa for the summer for Doz's job, so this meant she missed it and we missed her so much. It didn't feel the same without her.



It was a little crazy at the studio for pictures and rehearsal. Thankfully I had Lindsay and Emma there to help. They watched her for me and Lindsay got this gem on her phone.

One quick run through.


The next day was the big day. I had asked Dave to make sure she took her nap while I was at work, so she wouldn't be grumpy for the night since the review didn't start till 7pm. Well she fought it and was only able to sleep for a little bit. When I woke her up she was pretty ornery. She cried the whole time I curled her hair and then when it was time to get dressed she fought that too. Then by the time we got her in the car and put her favorite song on (thanks to Ash), she was as happy as can be.
 
They did so well. It was the cutest thing ever. During her Christmas performance she stayed in the same spot and followed direction, but on this performance she thought she would spice it up and do her own thing. Paola said she had the whole auditorium laughing. Allie was the perfect student and knew the dance right away.
 
Here they are with their teacher, waiting for their turn to perform.

 
 
Emma and Lindsay were awesome as always. It has been so fun to watch them grow as dancers. I LOVE watching them dance. I am their biggest fan!





Aww, they are holding hands. <3 td="">

 
Brooklyn's diaper leaked on her costume after her performance. Good thing we brought extra clothes. ;)
