Dancing Queen....



Emma had her first dance recital last weekend! She was so excited to get all dolled up and ready to go out into the spotlight. Her number was a Western Medley to the tune of Yellow Rose of Texas. She did a great job, always keeping her smile on and even remembering all the steps!




She had been talking of quitting dance for quite some time, complaining that her ballet shoes hurt her feet (no cushion!). I was a little sad to hear that, but as long as she's trying something, it's really up to her.



Then she had decided that she would do dance a little longer, just in the fall, so that she didn't have to do the recital next year.


Of course after the recital, all had changed. She told me "I think I'm going to do the recital again next year, too." Guess the glitz and glam of the big stage can reel you back in!

Great job Emma!!! You look adorable and I bet you made your mama (and daddy) so proud! Glad you had so much fun and I can't wait to see your costume next year!

Emma, you're just so cute! You are quite a dancer too! Did you know that you taught Sarah that dance too? After your dance was over, Sarah got off of mommy's lap and started doing the dance steps too. You taught your baby sister well!

Love you all!
