Abby Gale did a terrific job holding down her spot on the stage. She never moved but she didn't cry up there either so that was progress. Up until about six weeks ago, she was enjoying dance class. Then, one day she was playing around and leaned down as the teacher's tap shoe was coming up, head and shoe met and Abby hasn't been happy at dance since. In pictures below, she is posing with friends from class in their costumes.They all did a great job. Abby's award was for "Most Improved Timing" --we aren't quite sure what timing was improved but she proudly walked across the stage to get her certificate, necklace and sucker. Perhaps she will dance again in the fall -- we will let her attitude decide that.
Here are a few photos from Blaine's performances. The first is from the ballet, Giselle and the second is from All American. She did a terrific job with her performances tonight. Her solo was the best that she has ever danced. Aaron and I were both so proud of her. She knew her routines so well and was ready to go for each one. For her awards tonight, she received "Most Improved Overall Dancer and dedication" award, she received the "Pointe Class" award, meaning that she will start pointe ballet class in the summer classes, and she received the Full Scholarship and Solo award for the upcoming year. This was a wonderful accomplishment for her. Mrs. Gina had spoke with her a few weeks ago after classes and told her how proud she was of her with all her activities and how she gives everything she can even though she is very active in so much.
We can't say it enough -- we are so very proud of her and all her accomplishments that she has had this year with sports, school work/grades, 4-H projects and dance as well. She is definitely an all around great kid!
We love you, darlin'.
