Ballet recital 2011

Yesterday I shared the rehearsal pics, but today we are moving on to the real thing. Here are Lauren and Gracie all dressed up and ready to dance:



Dancing on the big stage:



Awaiting solos:

Blowing a kiss to the audience:



I think they were in love with the entire process. They were excited to get to wear make-up and have their hair styled. They really enjoy dancing with the friends they made this past year, and they adore their teacher and her assistant. They thought the theatre, stage, lights and audience were cool, too.
