Dance Recital

Mackenzie had her big dance recital on June 12th. She was so excited for it and loved performing! 

The night before we had a long rehearsal. It was 3 and a half hours. I sat with the Pearls during the whole thing, most of the time by myself. It was pretty tricky to keep them quiet and sitting still when I wasn't sitting close to most of them. The little girl next to Kenzie ended up falling asleep in her chair for the last half hour or so. They were tired kids.

Kenzie is in the middle touching the sequin top of her costume. This was during the practicing of the finale. I didn't get any pictures of her doing her actual dance because they only did the dance once at the rehearsal and I wanted to video it instead.

Kenzie in the middle so excited!

Kenzie was thrilled that Nati and Kenna were going to be able to come to her show.

These girls got a bit silly during the photo shoot.

We love this little girl!

All the kids that were in the recital.

She couldn't see us during her dance or the finale until they turned the lights on. When she found us she was so excited. She's in the middle front with her hands by her face.

Jack and Nati both wanted to come with me to the evening show. I thought they would be bored but they both loved it. (I thought I might be bored by the 3rd time watching the entire show but I actually enjoyed it more each time I saw it) Nati was pretty tired by the end of it though. They saw that we could buy flowers from the concessions stand and wanted to get one for Kenzie.

They had biographies for all the dancers hanging up on the walls.
