Maryella had another parent watch night at dance class. They are so precious at this age! I can't wait until June when they have the recital!

Put on Your Dancing Shoes!!

It's that time again! The girls all started they're dance classes yesterday. Well, Annlee is doing gymnastics this year instead of dance. They all have their lessons on Tuesday, which makes for a very busy day. But I think it's doable.

Kaylin's classes start at 3:15 and go until 5:45. She does Jazz, Clogging and Ballet. After I picked her up, she said she may want to drop Jazz. She's worried that she can't do splits. We're making her wait until the end of September to decide, since we've already paid the tuition for this month.

So after I drop Kaylin off at dance, we quickly drive to the other side of town and way, way out to Annlee's gymnastics class. It starts at 3:30 and goes until 4:45. So I waited with her while she was there. I think she's really going to love it. She had a great time trying out all the equipment yesterday. I think she did pretty good for her first time doing this kind of thing! In most of these pictures, she's the one that the teacher is helping.
After Annlee class is over, we drive back to the dance studio (we had to make a pit stop at the house yesterday due to an accident Maryella had we were at the gymnastics place, thus the new dance outfit on her!) to wait for Kaylin to be done and Maryella's class to start. Her class is from 5:45 - 6:15. I wish it wasn't so late, but she seemed to handle it pretty well. She was bouncing off the walls in the lobby, but behaved herself pretty well in class from what I could tell. She was excited about the "tattoo" she got at the end of class!

It's going to be a busy year, but a fun one. I can't wait to see all the recitals in June!

Party Time

We had two Christmas parties today - Kaylin's school party and Annlee's dance party. Both were fun and contained way too much sugar, haha. Here are pictures from both -

Kaylin's School Party:

And here is Annlee's Dance Party:

With two of her friends. I'm not sure of the name of the little girl in pigtails, but the other is Annlee's friend, Megan.

Here she is with her dance teacher, Mrs. Jennifer
