Dance Recital

7/11/09
Okay, I know I have fallen WAY behind on my blogging, but hang in there...I'm hoping to get caught up sometime soon!

Hannah and Ellie had their first dance recital in July. They had been taking dance all year from our friend, Amy, and they both loved it!
Hannah, Paige, Aubrey, and Ellie at their dress rehearsal. Amy made those adorable tutus for the girls! Thanks, Amy!

The big day! Hannah and Ellie were so excited to get dressed up and wear buns in their hair for their recital!
The girls each got to introduce themselves and do their own trick. They were thrilled to be able to use a real microphone.



Aren't they just too cute!?!
So proud!

If you watch the video below, you will see Ellie trying to gallop across the stage...it was quite hilarious! She was trying SO hard, but was always the last to get to the other side by a long shot! This is a picture of her galloping. I just love the look on her face!
Hannah and Paige doing an arabesque.


Hannah doing the sugar bowl. She was having trouble doing the sugar bowl, so she asked for help. Paige, being the good friend that she is, got up and helped her out during the recital. It was so sweet!
Amy with all of the girls.

Grandpa Bob and Grandma Jan came to watch the recital. The girls were so proud to show them what they could do. Thanks for coming, Grandpa and Grandma!

I know these videos are long, but hopefully some of you will enjoy them. They were quite fun to watch!
