Annie's Dance Recital

This past Saturday Annie had her end of the year dance recital. She loves dance and she did a great job! Brad got to dance on stage with her. Her class danced to the song "Butterfly Kisses" and they had the dads on stage with the girls. It was awesome!! I can't even describe how sweet it was to watch 12 little butterflies in purple flutter out on stage followed by 12 handsome dads dressed in white shirts and ties. The audience just oowed and ahhhed. They seriously had the loudest applause after their number (I'm not just saying this since it was my daughter and husband!) I saw the dance teacher after the show and she told me the whole back stage was teary eyed. None of the pictures really captured the moment very well, but they are still fun! I'm sure both Brad and Annie will remember this for a long time.

Grandma and Grandpa brought Annie roses for after the show!

This is Annie receiving a flower and a ribbon for her second year of dance. (on the last day of class)

This video is of the dress rehearsal. I knew I wouldn't be sitting as close at that actual show, plus I just wanted to enjoy watching at the real show. The real thing was a little more dramatic with all the dad's dressed up and the girls all done up with hair and make up. It really was great!
