Sneak Peek

last evening we went to the girls' weekly dance practice.....their recital is coming up on june 1st & the ballet instructor let us parents come in at the end of class last night for a sneak peek of their routines (gabby's tap instructor did not - boooo!)

the theme this year is Mary Poppins - pretty funny, cause we found this out shortly after i introduced this wonderful movie to the kids......gabby's ballet class is doing Spoon Full of Sugar and Corinn's ballet class is dancing to Feed the Birds. Gabby's tap class is doing a dance to the Penguin Dance (this should be sooooo cute - i can't wait to see it.....i hear the music drafting down from upstairs every week, and i'm so tempted to sneak up and see it each time!)

we get costumes next week - the girls are super excited for this! here are some pics from last night.....gabby's class is practicing with wooden spoons, but i'm told they'll use smaller/more glittery ones for the actual performance :0)

gabrielle in pre-ballet II...ages 5-7...she's in the pink tye-dye leotard & black skirt (i showed gabby these pics and she said, "i need to work on my smile".....she's so darn cute!)

the finale
corinn in pre-ballet I...ages 3-5...corinn's is in the shimmery blue leotard & black skirt...check out those toes - go girl!

the instructor feeding her birds (mary poppins will do this in the recital)

if u're local & want info about coming to the recital.....let me know! :0)

Hmmmmm...maybe I should re-sign Bri up for dance? The girls look SO cute...even before their costumes!

Thank you SO much for your comment! Honestly, I mostly feel so much less than courageous. But God is amazing. And I have felt...in a tangible way...the peace that passes understanding.

And in my heart I know that next year at this time...we'll be okay. It's just the right now. I'm like, "okay God..."

Too funny!! Guess what we are watching right now? Mary Poppins. It's one of Ethan's fav's. He fell asleep on the floor while he was watching it, but I just have it on as background noise.

The dance recital sounds so cute! It's it fun to have a girl? They look so cute. I can't wait until Kay is old enough to start dance.
