Rock Stars

Our dance recital experience was a little different this year because it was Sydney's first year and we got to see Abby in a ballet and tap performance. Plus, it's becoming a little more routine for me so I was not as stressed this year. I guess the third year's a charm.

The dance recital theme was Rock Star. Sydney danced to Rock Around the Clock with her poodle skirt on then and Abby danced to Daydream Believer and Old Time Rock N Roll. Kate Burns was in Abby's class and we were able to sit with Molly and Ryan, and Emily McGowan (there to watch Kate) so that was fun.

Both girls did a great job. Sydney "killed it", to borrow words from Matt Kelley, and seemed to enjoy every moment. Abby was so concerned with doing every single step that she almost lost it...twice...but my sweet little rule-follower did every step and we were so proud of her. So proud of them both.

One of my favorite parts of the weekend was after the recital we visited with the Kelleys (Tess was in the recital, too), Emily McGowan, the Burns and Lee Anne and Morgan Cavin. Plus Mama and Gran were there again this year so we were able to keep our tradition of getting Spill the Beans ice cream afterwards.

Here are some pictures from the big night:
