Dec. 9

Hallie has been begging to take ballet lessons for a year.

I told her after she turned four, I would sign her up.

She started in September, and has had so much fun.

She had her first little recital on December 9, 2011.

I could tell she was nervous, but she did pretty well. She lagged a little behind, but honestly all the little girls kind of did.

I was so proud of her cute little dance. One of my favorite parts of being a mom is watching my kids do all their little “firsts”, and watching them have fun and succeed!

 

After the recital and watching the tap dancers, she decided she wants to switch to tap. Looks like next season she will be a tapper! I think tap actually fits her style more.
