Annabelle's First Recital

Annabelle performed a tap routine in her first recital last Saturday.  She did great, and she did her whole dance.  She was the only one in her class that danced the whole time.  It was a significant improvement over her ballet Christmas performance, when she stood still sucking her finger the entire time.

Annabelle was all smiles before her performance.

Looking a little unsure, as she's standing ready to perform. 

 

Beginning pose. 

 

Her dance was to "A Very Merry Unbirthday to You!". 

The look of concentration as she's doing shuffle step.  No idea what the girl next to her is doing! 

 

Ending pose! 

 

The studio gave her a little "diploma".

And the professional class picture. We don't really know the girls in the back row with Annabelle, but the front row are her friends from play group: Belle Hartgrove, Evelyn Murry, and Isla Baker.  It doesn't get much cuter than 3 year olds in dance costumes!
