Final Ballet and Tap Class

As a treat for the parents (and siblings and grandparents), we were allowed inside the dance studio this morning to video and/or take pictures of the girls during the last fifteen minutes of their final dance class. Each girl had a chance to perform the skills that she had learned during the course of the session. It was absolutely adorable to watch (if I do say so myself). The girls were so funny and sweet and cute and Lainey had a great time performing in front of an audience. She kept looking at us and smiling; she seemed so pleased that we were there to watch her dance. Although I understand its purpose, that little viewing window was getting less enjoyable by the minute. I'm so thankful that Miss Dawn invited us into the studio to observe today. Miss Dawn was a wonderful instructor; the girls had fun and learned so much in such a short period of time!

"Go Mavs!"

Walker was thrilled that Emmy was there to play with him. He had no idea that she actually came to watch Lainey dance. :)

"Asher won't mind if I poke him in the eye, will he?"

I love it when Walker sits like this. It's so funny.

The girls line up like this along the wall to wait their turn. Miss Dawn was fixing Lainey's shoe. She ties those shoes tight!

Waiting can be SO tough when you're three years old.

Walker was so supportive. He enjoyed getting to go inside the studio, too!
