The Dance

It was dance recital time last weekend...




Rehearsal was on Saturday and got a few shots outside on yet another gorgeous day. 



I volunteered as class mom and put my camera away figuring I would get a few shots on performance day since she stood right by me.  It was difficult taking photos while watching squiggly kids (like I didn't already know that!)   

After the rehearsal, it was photo time.


The group shot took a bit...


and her individual shot was questionable as she said the makeup (I hardly put any on her!) made her eyes water.  Note:  putting the makeup on was a highlight of her getting ready.



She perked up though and we watched the rest of the other photos and then a few dances as well.

Sunday was showtime!


I got there early to get a few shots, but the lights were so low and she really wasn't cooperating, so this is all I managed.




We headed to the cafeteria and left Dad to watch the show and videotape.


All went very smoothly backstage and then it was our turn!

Did she stay in the same spot???? NO.  I gave up on pictures.




They came out for a bow and then it was time to head home.  Thankfully, another parent shared a few stage pics of Amelia and Dad had a video :) 


She received flowers at her bow and a gift in the car.


Will try to get a pic every year of the Ballerina and her flowers :)  This is year 2!


Another show over and it was time for Grammy's arrival.


Lots of adventures in the next couple weeks...stay tuned.
