Summer Dance Showcase (Recital) 2016

June 2016

The first weekend after school got out rapidly turned into a blur of tooile and sequins and makeup and hair spray as the girls had their annual dance recital.

The shows this year were on Sunday and Monday evenings (as that was when the theater was available) and A.J. had all her dances on Sunday with Lucy's one dance being on Monday.

Here's A.J. with my suitcase full of costumes outside the theater.

Backstage fun

More backstage fun.

With her ballet teacher, Ms. Kelly

A whole lot of ballet 1 girls
My friend in the audience snapped these two photos for me.  I actually worked backstage for both shows to help the girls.  Matt took the other kids to watch in the audience.



Here's AJ during her tumbling dance.  I took a picture of the monitor screen back stage.  

After the show with Ms. Ashley
The next day it was Lucy's turn.   I couldn't get over her cute little hair in a bun.



I'm pretty sure she was one of the youngest performers in the show since she wasn't even 2 yet.



Giving me a lipstick kiss just like AJ was maybe her favorite part.  

So excited!


Lot's of little creative ballet babies.

Here she is right after she danced.  She was so proud of herself.
A couple pictures of the monitor when she was on stage.  Lucy is the farthest to the right.



Waiting backstage to be dismissed, watching the show on the monitors.  


She got her very first teddy recital present, a teddy bear with the studio name on it!  (AJ got one two but for some reason I don't have a picture of that.  



Big enough to perform on stage, but not to give up that pacy yet.....
