End of the Year Ballet Recital

Addison switched this year from gymnastics to ballet - and while it was a bit of an unusual end to the year to have classes just on Zoom, they did figure out a way to still have their end of the year recital, by having it recorded and then compiled.  Each class had a designated time in the Children's Ministries building at FLC that they came in and recorded their dance.  It was sure sweet to see them - although Addison told us that the dress was incredibly itchy and she didn't want to ever wear it again!

About to go inside - they got special hair pieces when they went in, so this is before it was put onto her hair

Our very close friends the Js - their daughter Elin was also in the ballet class

During the ballet recital, we weren't actually able to be in the room but Jennifer was there, along with some friends who were the ones actually taping it and they snuck some pictures out to us - it was fun to see.  Addison's thin limbs make her look so very graceful!

The recital video was released a few weeks later, which coincided with us being over at Jeff's to celebrate his birthday - so we had a family viewing!

Our friend Ashley is the owner of the studio

 Afterwards, Jeff had a funny "trophy" moment in which he gave an old trophy of Niesha's (that they were planning on getting rid of anyway) to Addison as a trophy for her star performance!  Addison got quick a kick out of that!

We enjoyed our time over there watching, with little Sadie sitting on Kaleb's lap and then getting down to do some dancing of her own!

The afternoon was filled with pool time and then of course eating and singing happy birthday to the special man of the hour!

May God bless you over the coming year Jeff!
