Our Ballerina

Last weekend we celebrated Anna at her ballet recital!  She’s been working very hard for months and we were SO proud to see her on stage.  She had the biggest smile, mastered her steps, and was just fabulous.  

Leading up to the recital was a busy few weeks of regular classes plus multiple dress rehearsals.  We learned how to do a new ‘classical bun’, practiced giving her stage makeup, and talked through the nerves of performing.  Kenny told her that despite feeling nervous, the minute the show was over, she’d want to do it all over again.  And that’s exactly what happened.  Leading up to the recital she was unsure if all the extra work was going to be worth it.  But afterward, she said she definitely wanted to perform at the next opportunity.  She’s been bitten by the performance bug and we’re okay with that!  

Anna, we’re so proud of you!
