Dance Rehearsal!

Today was rehearsal for Gracie's dance recital tomorrow! We showed up at the Rialto and found our seats. I volunteered to be a helper parent so I was put in charge of 9 little 3 year old girls. We sat in the seats and waited until they called us onstage. At first, when Gracie saw the stage, she changed her mind about wanting to go on it. She was talking all week about how she is going to dance on stage. But once we were up there, she was fine. I think it helped that her little friends were going with her, as was I. Good thing too because 2 other girls freaked out. Luckily one was the other helper parent so she could deal with that. But that also meant she was no help the rest of rehearsal because her daughter refused to even be in the group picture. Oh well, after practicing, it was time to get the pictures taken. That was a process but I can't wait to see how they turned out.

Here are the girls waiting to go onstage.



And here they are practicing their moves to "Tutti Fruitti." I tried my best to tape up while up on stage.



Tomorrow is the big day and Gracie is so excited! She can't wait to wear her watermelon again. She even called Grandpa to remind him to come! I'm so proud of my little balllerina! Break a leg Grace! (but not really, just smile and have fun)
