But amid the book reports, field trips, and testing, there is one shining event that I love:
Dance Recitals.
It's just so gratifying to see the culmination of those hours upon hours of shuffling girlies back and forth from dance (not to mention the dollar dollar bills that have been applied toward it).
But... because my cheapness is near debilitating, I decided to forgo paying for the professional photos that were taken that day. Instead, I hung up a black curtain in my loft and took my own. Like I said: uber cheapness.
Do you like the fold lines in the "backdrop"?
Adi's class dance was to "Tell Me Something I Don't Know". And she hated the costumes. She said that she looked like a space alien.
Personally, I thought they were adorable.
Pip's dance was to "Let's Hear it For The Boy". Thus the country-style.
My goofy girls.
Of course, Porter Pot wouldn't be left out.
Did I mention that I convinced a couple of friends to go on the cheap side with me?
There was no photography or recording allowed during the performance, but I did smuggle my camera backstage and snapped a few pics.
It really is awesome having you best friend forever in your dance class with you.
After the completely awesome performance, we snapped a few pics outside.
Nana and Papa brought the girlies some beautiful flowers.
We were a little terrified of bringing Wy-Fi to the performance, but he actually loved it. Adi and Pipes were in the very first number, and since I got there an hour and a half early to save seats (oh yeah, I am that dedicated) we had rocking seats. Wyatt could clearly see his sisters shaking their groove thangs. After that, he kept shushing everyone around him, saying, "Shhh! Piper dance!"
As you know, Wyatt calls both of his sisters "Piper".
