Dance Performances

We had several dance performances this year, starting with Emmalee's performance at Carrollton's Christmas parade the Friday after Thanksgiving. This is part of being a competitive dancer, which certainly keeps us on our toes. It was hard to get good pictures, as the lighting was off and so was my camera.

The following week the girls were invited to perform at Marshall's Christmas parade, so we headed south after school.

Shapes has an annual performance the last week before Christmas break, and the kiddos are allowed to wear their Christmas pajamas.

Emmalee's performance came the Monday before Thanksgiving. They did a run through of all the competitive pieces and didn't start until 7:45, so Dad wasn't able to watch (he was making sure Tori got rested up for her last day of preschool this year. The performances were AMAZING, and I simply cannot wait to see how everything turns out! We are so blessed to be a part of Shapes Dance and Acro. The girls really love it there, and their confidence grows every year!

Tori was off for 2 weeks, but Emmalee had 2 hours worth of rehearsals on the Monday following Christmas. She didn't mind a bit, and she really enjoyed herself.
