Dance Picture Day

Today was Dance Picture day. I have a love/hate relationship with this day. First, it forces me to find all the tights and the costumes, hairpieces and shoes before the actual recital in a few weeks, so that's a good thing. But I hate finding them all because that just gives me another opportunity to lose them again.

The kids know the current dance costumes for the little ones are supposed to hang in my closet with each piece intact. They were.

Until we had to pull everything out. Now I have to find it all again, make sure no one spilled their lunch or snagged their tights, and stow them away in the closet.

It is fun for them to get all dressed up and it makes them excited to perform. Baby Doll and Little Sis's kids are in the same creative ballet class. They love dancing together and it is even more fun when they get to wear their pretty costumes.

After pictures were finished, we decided to run through the recital number once in their costumes so they could watch themselves in the mirror. The lighting on this pics isn't great because we had our backs to the mirrors and the windows put out way too much light, but the dance was so cute! That is Baby Doll, 2nd one from the left.

  1. Oh they are all so darling. Your little one is so cute. It brought back memories of when my three girls were in dancing at these ages. It was quite a feat did get all their costumes made; but it was worth it when watching them perform. Hugs for all!
