Recital 2015

 Well, the big days finally arrived! This past weekend was Rachel and Bekah's dance recital with The Studio. The girls had been counting down for weeks for their recital and they were beyond excited!

 Here are Rachel and Bekah with Ms. Jessica before the show started on Friday night.

 Rachel and Bekah were both in the Friday night and Saturday afternoon show which was so much fun to have them in the same show! They were actually only about 3 dances apart in the recital. Several of our family were able to come up for the Friday night show and others were able to come for the Saturday afternoon show too. It was great to get to see everyone and that they were able to see the girls dance as well. More about the family visit to Virginia to come!

 I was actually able to get a few pictures of them with their classes before the recital started. Bekah's class was pretty big so there wasn't a space big enough to get a whole class picture but I was able to get a couple of different pictures of her with some of her dance friends.

Rachel's class gathered for a picture too and I actually managed to get a picture of her entire class this year!

 Rachel gets a little nervous at times so we have always sat in rows 1, 2, or 3 in the auditorium so she can see us so Brent was able to get some great pictures of them this year,

 The theme was "Across America" and Rachel's group represented the Blue Ridge Mountains. Here is her whole class as they circled and arabesqued together.

 Bekah's class were the "Liberty Bells." Her class did such a good job!

 Here is Bekah with her class and their helper, Miss Leah, who danced with them on the big stage too.

 Here are the big girls together Friday night after the show. Grams, my grandmother, was not able to travel up for the recital but she sent instructions with my mom to make sure the girls had flowers from Grams for their recital.

 Here are our beautiful ballerinas together after the Saturday afternoon show too.

 Thank you to Ms. Jessica and Ms. Kitty, their teachers and their helpers, Miss Carolyn and Miss Leah, for all you taught our girls this year in dance. They had a wonderful year of dance and a great recital! All the dancers did a great job! They are definitely looking forward to dance next fall already too! They have already been talking all about what their new classes will be. We are so proud of you, Rachel and Bekah, and how you danced your best, with Jesus's help, in your recital! We love you both very much!
