Both girls began dance classes the beginning of January.  I managed to get them into the same class where they practiced Jazz, Tap and Ballet, well as much as you can in 45 minute sessions.  Starting dance later in the session as we did automatically meant each class time was in preparation for the big dance recital coming June 1st.  Kenna and Elle were both very excited and with Elle being so young and never have danced before seemed very seasoned and far from having stage fright.

Our big day came. Hair was done just so, leatards just perfect, the right toast colored tights, dance bags packed with water bottles and snacks- we were ready to go.  Pappa Ed came as well as daddy, me , Lexi and Jeff.

We arrived on time-barely with new baby Ava in tow, let daddy and the girls out of the car while I parked it.  Little did we know daddy did not grab the dance bags and the girls would have no shoes, no water or no snacks.  Shoes being the biggest deal of course.  Jim manged to snag us some pretty descent seats as we all settled in for a long 2 hours.  I mean lets be real when you attend these things the only thing you really care about are your own kids.

Kenna and Elle took the stage 3 separate times and looked absolutely adorable.  We were such proud parents and were amazed with our just turned 3 yr olds moxie for getting out there like an old pro.  All in all it was a fun day, the baby behaved and the girls did not miss a beat- ok, maybe one.  We love you Elle and Kenna and look forward to the next dance recital! Great job.
