Most of these pictures are from the dress rehearsal of Isabella's first dance recital.
{My mother-in-law has a much better camera and took pictures of the big night itself -- so I may post those when I get them.}
This year they did "Wizard of Oz"
Isabella's class were the snowflakes that wake Dorothy up after the poppies make her go to sleep.
(Here are Miss Amber's great gams!)
Gettin' ready to bust a move. Apparently the robot was part of her routine.
And the soldier called to attention.
This girl's got moves! Check out her pose. Nice.
More posing with snowflake friends. (I didn't check with their moms if I could put them on my blog -- I hope it's allright!)Isabella is the one with the farmer tan.
A little mom and me time.
Ah...the beautiful snowflake.Now, look closely at the picture. Do you see the cover up on her nose? (First of all, take note that that is MY cover up and happens to be several shades too light for her. Good for her she didn't get my pasty white skin.) I was going to touch up the photo and remove the cover up spot, but then I wouldn't be able to share why it was there.
My beautiful dancing queen is a bit....active. A week or so earlier, she was running around outside and bit it right on my neighbor's driveway, thus skidding with her nose. {Small side note -- she was running into the dress rehearsal and tripped and fell once again on the asphalt. Luckily, she avoided the face and just got a few scrapes on her arm and knee. Graceful beauty!!!}The worst part was the not the wound that followed, but rather her incessant habit of picking off the scab that formed. So, in efforts to hide the aforementiond bright red scab that should have been healed by now, I put cover up on it that was too light and still drew attention to it.
See? Now if I had touched up the picture I wouldn't have posted this story and wouldn't be able to look back at this, read it, and laugh at my fantastically fun dancing queen.
Good job Snowflake!!!
