Addison Dance Recital 2011

Here are some photos from the weekend! The dance recital weekend process started on Thursday night for "staging", Friday night was dress rehearsal, Saturday 2 shows, and Sunday 1 show. So it was a BUSY weekend. Oh, and we threw in a garage sale just to torture ourselves:) On Saturday morning I brought Addie to have her hair done at the salon. Man, she still has glitter in her hair! And I have washed it 3 times since Sunday! But she loved it. In some of the photos you see our niece Elizabeth. She was in 3 different dances, so that made it nice that we could see her as well. Addison was pretty much "locked" backstage with the other dancers during the entire show, and she loved being back there with all the girls! My sister Nicole was backstage Saturday night and told me that she was running around with the big girls (Elizabeth is 9) and they just loved her:) Sunday I was backstage with another mom and we were "in charge" of Addison's group. And let me tell you, keeping 10 girls ages 3-5 occupied for 3 hours is no easy feat. And don't even get me started on lining them up, tying shoes, leading them onstage, fixing hair, finding gloves etc. I was exhausted when we got home. But it was SO nice to share that with Addie! She loved every minute of the weekend!

Payton isn't into it. She isn't thrilled about getting on stage in front of people (every concert she has ever had she looks like a deer in the headlights), so we didn't enroll her. That seems to be getting better, but she says she doesn't want to dance. But she loves to watch. She did gymnastics for a couple of years, and after a couple of ice skating lessons she is hooked. She LOVES ice skating!
