Christmas Dance Recital


On Saturday night we went to Rae and Reese's dance recital. It was wonderful! Their dance teacher is having a baby in January, so they had a Christmas recital this year instead of a Spring one. It was really fun and Christmasy! Good word! I still make them pose for me - but Rae is liking it less and less. Reesie, however, is always good for a big posey smile!

Here she is in her ballet costume. They danced to "When Christmas Comes to Town" from the Polar Express - it was so pretty! This mom got a bit teary every time I saw it. This girl is just getting too grown up for me to handle!
Reese and her dancing friends. Such nice girls!
Rae and her dancing friends - well, they are nice girls too - just a little older and "cooler".
Here is Rae's class on stage in their final pose. This was a jazz routine that they danced to "Up on the House Top" by the Jackson 5. It was fun!
Rae Rae hamming it up on stage.
Reese being oh so lovely and graceful on stage. She loved dancing with a scarf.
Reese had to dance with boys (eeeeeek and shreeeeek) for the first time this year in her tap number. It was really cute and fun - but the girls all made sure they made as little contact with the boys as possible - cooties you know.

Great dancing girls! We all had a fun time watching you! Well, Brady and Kelly didn't enjoy it AS MUCH as me - but they love you and were and great picture takers!
