Dance Recital 2013 - Day 2

Day 2 of recital is a wrap! Ready for summer fun!

All 12 girls in the same picture! Mission Accomplished!

We asked them to pose and this is what we got. ;)

I included this pic because we all got a kick out of what she said as I took it, "One more picture Mommy. Just one more and that's it. Ok?"

Electronics were abundant. This is not your grandmother's dance recital. Strongly considering purchasing a LeapPad.

Squeezy applesauce!

Waiting to go on for tap.

These 3 have been together at the Red Barn since Anna Claire was 14 months old - sweet Avery and Ava!

On stage!

They seem happy to be up there, don't they?

Love shooting pics of my girl outside.

Sharna wasn't able to do hair for day 2 so I attempted to recreate it. Not bad, eh?

I don't normally like closed eye pictures, but this one was deliberate.

AC loved this yellow leaf.

Sweet friends.

Just letting her be herself as opposed to cheesy posed pics.

Favorite.

Ok, this bench totally grossed Paige and me out. AC sat on it before we realized it was covered with yellow pollen. We removed the child immediately.

I love that for both days she opted to draw and practice her letters instead of staring at a screen.

Cutie pie!

Playing with friends, waiting for finale.

Lined up and ready for finale.

Walking around to the other side of the stage.

Finale! There was a balloon drop and AC was ecstatic to get one of the fallen balloons.

Ok, two balloons.

Ava and Anna Claire, so sweet! And you can really see my hairdo efforts in this one.

Love!

Mommy's in the picture! (rare)

Twice in one post! Holy Cow!

Paired with Kathryn again!
