My first ballet class!

I was SO excited to be invited to Abby’s friend’s ballet birthday party at the studio where Abby takes dance lessons! I go with Abby every week to her lesson, but this is the first time I got to go in and dance too! Thanks so much Allison for a GREAT time!

I tried really hard to follow the teachers directions…

… but I found it MUCH more fun to dance by myself in front of the mirror!

Abby is getting really good at her summer saults…

… and I’m not so bad at them myself! (I got a lot of practice too, since I kept cutting the line…)

I found it to be so much more fun to play around than listen to the directions… Mommy says I’m a handful!

I am really good at the beam (but I already know how to do that from my gym class)…

… and I was great at jumping off the mats!

Abby was really impressive at the limbo (I think it helped that the bar was over her head)…

… and I just didn’t see the point… Why do people say this is so hard????

Hula hoops are the best!

My sister is GREAT at them, but can’t seem to keep her tongue in her mouth while she does it!

I LOVED playing the parachute game!

I LOVE ballet! I can’t wait until I’m old enough to take my own lessons!
