Today's recital went well :) Grace had so much fun (isn't that the real point?) and we actually made it until the Grand Finale!
The Program
After the finale, all the kids got medallions with dance shoes and a hat on the front, and Alice in Wonderland 2006 engraved on the back from the school... Very nice :)
Grace~ 'Cotton Candy' costume
I loved all the other mothers in our group and all the girls got awesome gift bags for all their hard work. We contributed cotton candy, of course!
Grace~Cotton Candy
I'm beat, so this is gonna be short... Hopefully I'll get back to write about the day soon.
But, in the meantime, here are some pictures... including the ones we got professionally done.
The one I don't like is here, too, but doesn't look that bad to me now... the one up there, before this, where she's laying down, cotton candy on the floor next to her... I think her head looks huge! Can we say photoshop?!
The Curious Oysters and Alice
The next ones are just a few of the other costumes before Grace's cotton candy dance. I never got a chance to go back for pictures of any of the ones from Alice... but there were so many more. All beautiful and unique!
To 'Ribbons in the Sky' by Stevie Wonder
To 'Isn't she lovely' also SW
At the end, their Dads came out and danced with them~Awww!
They had tuxedos on at the recital :)
You'd think because its blurry, that they were really fast, but no. Rather slow, in fact... I just liked their costumes ;)
These kids kicked it!
This one had all 4 of the 10-year dancers in it. They each had a solo part and did okay...
As you can see, I had some performers in front of me, too.. LOL
This group was very good though
These girls had it goin on :)
Hey, hey... we're the monkeys. Literally...
The Mom on the end there had to go on stage because her kid wouldn't let her go... Don't know how she did today. The DVD will tell ;)
Have a good evening...

the pictures are great!!! I absolutely LOVE the first one of Grace lying on the floor, that's just precious...I like the second one too, but you're right, it does look a tad touched up..but only noticable if you really look for it. I love all the costumes :) We're talking about Pey taking dance classes, it's that or cheering and I'm so anti-being a cheermom ;) can't you just see me, rah-rah...meh ;)~
Give Grace a big round of applause for me!

Aww!!! Grace is just adorable!! But your right...that second picture doesn't look right at all. And I am glad to hear Grace had so much fun!!
The pictures were wonderful!! Thanks for sharing!!
*hugs*
I am so way behind on alerts... had to erase and erase and erase some more but I finally made it over here!! Awesome pictures!! Love the costumes!! Go Grace!!! Your daughter is absolutely beautiful!! She looks radiant in all of her pictures!! I would have loved to have seen the performance!! You must be so proud! Hugs,

OMG.. it has been a year already since her pics from last year.. WOWOWOW that went sooo fast, I still remember last year's recital and pics.. She looks awesome! Alyssa wants to join dance again this year.. 3 classes though.. I think 2 is ok.. 3 is way too much money for me to afford atm. Why is it so expensive and the costumes alone are outrageous!! Tell Gracie she looked GREAT and glad she had a good time =)
Love,
Theresa
