Well it's been a tough couple of weeks but we've managed to find more than a handful of smiles by toting around and keeping busy with our dancin girl. I have to admit, this has been a true joy for me with my dance passion and history. I didn't have her begin dance as early as she could've because I didn't want to push anything on her that she didn't want herself. We started with gymnastics at 3 years old, soccer, t-ball, then dance at 4. We wanted her to try it all and find what she enjoyed. (and of course we're not done exploring.) Well this is year 2 for dance and it looks like it may be here to stay. Not only is she taking ballet/tap and hip hop, but she's also started to explore camp and clinic life.
She started with the Crandall Gold Dusters Mini Camp. This was a 2 hour camp with the high school drill team followed by a performance in their Spring Show the next weekend. For those that aren't aware, this was my high school drill team so it's super special to me!!
She danced to Crocodile Rock from Gnomeo and Juliet!
And then the next weekend was the monster camp! The Dallas Mavs Dancer Camp. We were super excited about this one but also nervous. It was a 4 hour camp. We had no idea how a full day would work out and if she'd be begging to go home on the lunch break.
Lunch...ready to go home?
Not a chance.
Our favorite Mavs Dancers: Jenna and Savannah. (Forney girls)
She did such a great job and asked to go back.
It's so much fun to watch her dance. She may not have the best technique yet and is sometimes a few counts behind BUT she shows the biggest smile on the floor. Right now, I just hope she's falling in love and I think that she is...
(This next one is a little blurry but I LOVE the costume.)
OUR DANCIN' GIRL!!!
