The Recital.

Ella was quite the performer! She looked straight out in the audience and danced her little heart out. Her smile was HUGE whenever the audience clapped. She was in heaven! I got a little teary eyed during her performance. My little dancer at her first recital. Aw. It was adorable. Pics of her by herself to come. My awesome friend took some cute photos of her. Seeing as how she's on vacation right now we will have to wait for those! Thank you Nicole!

On our way!

Performance

The gang.

All done!

Checking out her flowers, of course!

Best buds.

Isn't she the cutest?

Grammy and Papa got her a music box with tap shoes on !

Mommy and Daddy got her and dance necklace!

She had to play some games at her dinner afterward.

The dress rehearsal

Ella's dance recital is coming up this Saturday. She is so excited! Last Saturday was their dress rehearsal day. She got to get all ready and practice her dance on the big stage. She was thrilled beyond belief. Can't wait for this weekend! Here's my dancer girl all ready in her costume!

 This is Mia, Ella's friend from her dance class. Or families have become good friends so they love to spend time together.

 Yes, I am a proud Mama. =)

This is them taking the stage. No flashes are aloud so it's a bit blurry. It will have to do. She sure can't wait for this weekend to come for her real performance. I am not going to lie, neither can I!
