the cutest ballerina ever

Ready for some serious cuteness??

Maddie has started taking ballet/tap lessons at the Holly Springs School of Dance. She's in the 3/4 year old class (although there are a few 5 year olds in there as well).

Half of the class is ballet, then they come out to the waiting area and change into their tap shoes for the remaining half hour. There are two teachers... they are fairly young (high school... maybe college?) and really sweet with the girls.

I'm warning you, the pictures are super low quality! They're all taken either through a glass window, or from the door. I know it sounds like I'm a pyscho parent but COME ON! She's too cute to not be able to take pictures of! I just can't help it. I only wish I could get in there and get some good shots of her. The pictures are also pretty jumbled up chronologically. You'll see in some she's wearing ballet shoes... and other tap.. sorry... just don't have the time to reorder.


Here Maddie and the other little girl are supposed to be doing what the teachers doing. Hmmm... maybe a little more practice.

She's got this one down! Tapping with her heals first, then toe. Hands on hips!


Caroline was DYING to get in there! She wanted to dance to the music! Grammie had to hold her back.
Doing some tap stretches. Can you find her??

Great shot with Grammie and Grandad after class. We went to Chik Fil A after for a yummy lunch!

Hope you enjoyed!

bank

Maddie: Mommy, where are we going?

Me: The bank, I just need to deposit some money.

(we pull up to the ATM where I deposit a check)

Maddie: Where's the bank?

Me: Its here... we're at it.

Maddie (looking around): I dont see the piggy... this isnt a bank!

happy new years!

We spent New Years Eve at our friends Tim, Mel, Emma and Addie's house and had so much fun!! 4 little girls + Disney Wii singing and dancing games = a blast.

So many great pictures... I had to share a few!



The Fornes's have the Disney singing game that we LOVED. Here's Addie singing the Sleeping Beauty song.

Caroline and Daddy dancing!


Maddie singing "You've Got a Friend in Me."

The Fornes girls have EVERY princess dress known to man, so Maddie always enjoys playing dress up when she's there. Here she is dressed as Jasmine with a cowgirl hat... singing with Emma (dressed as Giselle).


Maddie as Ariel dancing with her prince.


More singing Maddie. Yes, Im buying this game ASAP.

The four sweet girls!


Here's to a joyous, peaceful and beautiful 2011!!!!!!
