Abbi's Ballet Showcase

This year was our first year of dance and we loved it!  We decided to put Abigail in Alaska Dance Theater, which meant driving to Anchorage once a week, but it was worth it!  After dance class, Abbi would ask me...."how many more days until dance class?"  Dance days were the best days!!

For the end of season showcase, the girls performed at the Discovery Theater at the PAC.  This is a shot of all of the ballerinas waiting to go back stage.

This is Abigail with her teacher, Miss Erica.

In the theater waiting for her turn to go dance. 

Abigail's class were the birds in the story Peter and the wolf.  She makes one cute bird if you ask me!

Abbi is smack dab in the middle.
 Before she went on stage she told me she might get nervous.  We talked about having fun and just enjoying it.  Abbi is quite the shy little thing, so I was worried!!
Abigail did AWESOME!  She loved it!  After the show she told me, "Mom, I wasn't even nervous!"  So proud of her!  Way to go sis!!!
