1st Ballet Recital...

Anna Lauren has been going to ballet at school every Thursday morning since August and Tuesday night was the BIG night...it was her very 1st dance recital. Going into the recital, I was a little negative thinking this is silly, it is going to be chaos, etc. But I was so wrong...it was so sweet and so much fun! Not one little girl cried, they all danced their hearts out, and I have never seen so many smiles. I think out of the 165 pictures I took, I have one picture where Anna Lauren has a "weird" look.

Of course, we had to enjoy the night with Anna Lauren's best friend, Holli Grace! We picked the girls up from school at the same time, went to a friend of Holli Grace's family for hair and make-up, grabbed a quick bite to eat, and headed to the recital.

So enjoy the pictures...I tried to limit myself but there were just too many cute ones!

Make-up done, and she knows she is looking pretty!

Time for the bun...

At Disney on Ice, I didn't get too many pictures but these girls were full of poses and smiles this night...they were beyond excited!



And what made this night even more fun were the high school girls who were there to help them get ready...
