Ballet Recital

Grace finally had a chance to participate in a recital with her ballet class. She LOVES ballet and was so excited. I thought she might be nervous being in front of so many people but she didn't even bat an eye. I tried to take a video of the performance (it was pretty bad, we were far away, it was dark and my hand was shaky so I will spare you). I didn't therefore get any pictures with my regular camera but here are a few pictures from her practice in the morning.

A group picture. She is 5th from the right with her hands over her head.
She LOVED watching the other groups dance. Afterwards she kept saying "That was a really good recital." Of course, it is the only recital she has ever been too, but she was impressed!
Gunnar saved the day that day as when we got to the school in Escondido, we realized that in the rush we had forgotten her shoes at home. There wasn't enough time to go all the way home so Gunnar braved the mall (on a Saturday no less) to pick up another pair of shoes. Grace was mortified at the thought of having to dance in her regular shoes (her teacher said it was okay) so she was SOOO happy that he got the right shoes there in time!
