Dance Recital

This past Saturday was Haley and Abby's annual dance recital (their 3rd one) and it was awesome, as usual.  Dance recital day is a thrilling day in our house.  Auntie Laura comes over and helps me put on the girls' "stage make-up".  Probably one of their favorite parts of the dance recital is that they get to wear make-up...and TONS of it.  I actually think it looks pretty weird, but they think it's gorgeous (which is a little concerning)!  It sure does make a difference on stage, though.

Anyway, they both did an amazing job on stage.  It was so fun to watch them up there.  They loved it and I am just so proud of them for getting up on the huge stage in front of SO many people.  This year, being 6 1/2 year olds, they really knew their dances well, and Haley even had a little cartwheel "solo"!

After the recital, we went out for ice cream and then the girls and I stayed downtown to go watch the "big kids" dance recital.  The one they were in is 3-7 year olds and we've never gone to the big kids one.  They LOVED watching the older kids dance, and Haley decided that she really wants to do a solo some day.  So cute!
