This little peanut got to take part in her very first recital yesterday.
She's been in a combo tap/ballet class this spring, and the song that they performed (tap) to was, You're Never Fully Dressed without a Smile from the musical, Annie.
Annie, being a musical near and dear to my heart since childhood (maybe because I shared the same nickname with the main character, perhaps??), somehow made this performance even more special than the fact that this was my baby's first foire on the stage.
From wig to bow in hair (not pictured) to red collar (not pictured) to make up and fancy Annie outfit, this girl was decked out and in character.
On the stage, she was poised, did her best, and we loved every minute of it. She did too.
Afterwards, she told us that she wanted to have a recital EVERY DAY. The sad realization that dance was over for the season set in, and we are now processing through this change.

Oh I love this! One of Evie's recital songs was It's A Hard Knock Life! Loved it! I love Ellie's costume too! So fun!
Smiles on ALL of our faces, that's for sure!!!
