Dance recital

Emily wrapped up her first season of ballet with a dance recital on Saturday.  The recital was held at the big performing arts center on the university campus, she was so excited to dance on the big stage!  They had professional photos on Thursday at her dance studio, then I took her over to the performing arts center to get a few photos of her in her pretty creamscicle costume too!

She did great in her recital, she was not even a little bit nervous to dance in front of the big crowd.  She is the third from the left in these photos of them on stage.

After the show, she was showered with flowers by all of her adoring fans and had to pose for photos with them :)

Ballerina

Emily has been asking to do ballet for a while.  I have been putting it off because she has been loving gymnastics and is getting pretty good at it and I didn't want to overwhelm us (mostly me) with too many activities.  But I caved and she started ballet in December, she loves it.  I have to sit outside and watch her through the window so it is hard to get photos of her in action, but I made her pose for some after her ballet classes the last 2 weeks!

She has been practicing her jetes and plies and arabesques, they started working on some choreography for her dance recital (which I think is in June) today.

This girl has some killer moves :D
