Ballet Recital 2010

The girls had their ballet recital this weekend and it was so fun. Grandma Barbara and Great-Grandma Forsgren made the trip down and that made it extra special.


Here is their class. Olivia is one of the tallest and Audrey is the smallest.

Here they are watching a video backstage waiting their turn.

All the girls going to the right and my dear sweet little Audrey always went left. She was so cute though. She wasn't supposed to be in this class because it was for 5-7 yrs. old but the teacher said it would be fine so she could be with Olivia. She really did do fine and hung pretty well with the older girls.

Audrey and her teacher Miss Kendra. Kendra was only their teacher for about 1/2 the time then she was diagnosed with Leukemia and had to stop teaching for Chemo. We hadn't seen her since she left so it was great to see her again. The girls love her. She is doing great and is in remission. She lost her beautiful red hair because of the chemo but I thought this wig was real it was so beautiful.

This performance went a lot better for Olivia than 2 years ago. She was confident and not scared to be on stage one bit. I was amazed by how well she knew the dance and how graceful she was. I teared up a few times, I was so proud of them both.
