Ava’s Dance Recital

IMG_4801_1_1

On May 20th, Ava had her 2nd dance recital. If you will remember, Adam and Dad were gone, hiking through the Grand Canyon during her recital last year (I’m kind of thinking they had wished they were there again by the end of the recital Surprised smile) Ava was originally set to continue in the same class she was in last year, according to her age, that’s where she should have been. However, Johanna thought she was advanced enough to move up since there were a lot of little ones in the younger class, Ava would have been way more experienced and older than most. The next class up was definitely more challenging, but in a good way, it pushed her to do her best and you couldn’t tell she was one of the youngest in the class by the end!

Ava’s class had 3 dances total, a tap, a ballet, and the finale with all the girls. Their tap song was a ‘running’ theme, so they had a lot of fun with that and dressed the part. Sweatbands and running shorts Smile

All the girls did so good. I’m always skeptical about it coming together in time, but somehow they always manage to pull it off!

During intermission was the first chance I had to snap some picture of her in her ballet outfit. I love Johanna’s choice in ballet attire. It’s simple, its innocent and sweet, and its exactly what I picture when I think of my little girl in a ballet outfit. Unfortunately the lighting wasn’t great since it was later and they pictures didn’t turn out great, but I have some better ones on the way!

She’s still precious!

She made so new friends and loved these girls to death! They had such a great time whenever they were together.

So fun! I know she made many memories she will not soon forget!

It was a long night and quite a while before her class was to get back on stage, I think she was tired, especially since we had spent the morning at practice as well!

Finally it was time for their turn and they did beautifully! Aren’t they the sweetest thing you have ever seen?!

For the finale, they dressed up like cowgirls- Ava already had the hat and bandana so she was set and excited to wear it!

Everything turned out cute, but at the same time I’m glad its over- we’ve been in dance mode since late August/September last  year and this Mama is ready for a break!

After the finale, all the girls sat on stage and Mrs. Johanna handed out roses and certificates to each girl. You can tell she really cares for each of her girls!

Afterwards, Ava received flowers from her Daddy and presents from her grandparents. IMG_4897_1IMG_4898_1
