spring recital

On Saturday, June 4th, we had Ainsley's Spring Dance Recital. This marked the end of her first year of dance. She absolutely loves going but her favorite part is getting to dance on the big stage. We had been looking forward to this day for a while and it did not disappoint. I am so thankful that we are able to give Ainsley (and Caleb) these sorts of opportunities. Without a doubt, we will be enrolling her into the Fall Dance Session.

Here we go... this is the beginning of her ballet number.

Ballerina princess in all her glory.

Did you know that one dance class is specifically devoted to the art of Sumo Wrestling? I think Ains mastered it...

Look at the concentration on her face, would ya??

Our first medal/trophy!

As we were making our way out of the theater, we ran into some familiar faces. This solidified Ainsley's day as perfect. She absolutely adores these girls and she cherishes any time that she gets to spend with them. To see them all dressed up and to show them her outfit, well, it was her own slice of heaven.

There is a really neat sculpture right outside of Knight Theater. Ainsley got a kick out of making faces in the mirrors.

She was checking herself out from all angles...

literally.

Caleb had to get in a little mirror action too.

I wanted to give a special thank you to all of the ladies that make the Harris Y Dance Program possible. And an extra special thank you to Miss Meeghan and Miss Lisa for a great Spring Dance session.
