Angelina Ballerinas

Today, Blair and Zoey had their 1st day of ballet class! We had been waiting a couple of months for the fall classes to start (since they didn't have classes for their age group on Saturdays... working parents - what?). When we signed up the girls yesterday, they were both very sad to leave - but today was the day!!
 
Pink tights? Check.
 
Pink leotard? Check.
 
Ballet shoes? Check.
 
Participation was slow to start, but since there were only three little girls in the class (B, Z and one other girl) they quickly warmed up. Miss Tiffany was very patient with the girls and they had a great time!
 

Cheesing it for the camera


Parents had to watch from the window. I still took plenty of pictures.


Pliés at the bar


Love those girls in the background!


 
We have begun seeing this face a lot lately. Thanks, school friends.



Cute girls from the window


Tiny dancers





Blair LOVED the huge mirror to watch herself. She spent 90% of the time being silly in the mirror.


 
See?




The girls loved putting on tutus and dancing on the Angelina Ballerina stage!





 
Blair loved it!!




The girls got stamps on their hands - and bows with their names embroidered on them!

 
Showing her new bow to Daddy!


Love this girl so much!
 

 
They had posed for a ton of pictures and were done.

 
We can't wait for next week!


1st Horseback Ride!

Last weekend, we went out to Hempstead to visit Grandma 'Ancy and Grandpa Robert. Little Miss was in heaven and had a great time loving on her grandparents.

She told us, "I want to drive Hank by myself!"
Travis says we are in trouble.



 
Such a big girl!



Grandma Ancy says she is a natural. :)


 
Sweet girl!

 
She let me take over 500 pictures. Such a trooper.
 
I cannot believe how big my girl is getting.
