Disco Dancer

This was Ainsley's first year in dance.  She took a tap and ballet class that practiced on Wednesdays for 30 minutes each.  It's amazing how busy we seemed having only one child in one activity.  What will we ever do when three kids are in more activities?  I can't even imagine.  

Getting ready for her first practice. 

We were delighted by several living room shows throughout the year.  

Finally it was time for dress rehearsal.  Make-up, costumes, the big stage.  

Ready to go on stage for the first time!

I had volunteered to be a room mother, which meant lots of snacks, coloring and potty trips.  

Coloring to pass the time.  Four hours worth of time.  

Costume change and ready to go on stage!  

Grammy and Papa bought her some flowers for after the big performance.  

We ended the year with a performance downtown as a part of a community event.  She loved being able to show off her dance skills to friends and family who happened to be walking by.  

Super serious.
