Tiny Dancer

May 2015

Kids R Kids offers dance lessons through a company called Dance Adventures. Every Tuesday, her teacher, Coach Sugarplum, would come work with the girls for 30 minutes. We decided this would be a good way to see if Livi liked dance and wanted to take lessons. She started taking lessons in January and her class performed their recital in May. The theme of this recital was "Somewhere Over the Rainbow."

Each girl wore a different colored tutu. Amazingly, our little pink-lover ended up with the pink tutu and hair bow:

Her class performed two dances. The first was a ballet to Rockin' Robin. Her balance may not have been spectaular, but she did a great job, enjoyed herself and was absolutely adorable!

All done and walking off the stage after her first dance.

They changed into their tap shoes for their finale to "Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows." The floor of the classroom at Kids 'R Kids is not the optimum floor for tap shoes and these poor girls had many slips, but this dance was equally as adorable as the first:

After the dancing, they all sat down for introductions:

Each girl said their name and age - so cute!

Livi was so proud of her medal:

So was her best buddy, Samantha:

Here she is with Coach Sugarplum - such a great teacher!

Big brother was pretty proud of his little sis, too. How cute are they on their way out?! I love how much they love eachother!
