Dance Recital 2023

Dance Recital 2023! Ivy's second year of dance (tap and ballet) and Maclyn's 4th year (ballet, tap, jazz, and hip hop). Between the dress rehearsal and the actual recital, it was a long and exhausting two days! Also in those two days we set up for our church's VBS and cleaned up from Ivy's 5th birthday party the day before. It was almost too much but watching my girls perform made it all worth it! The videos are from their rehearsal (not allowed to film during the actual recital) and so they are a little rusty. Oh, I love my tiny dancers!

Ivy was recognized for her 2 years of dance with a bronze medal!

Maclyn was recognized for 4 years of dance with a gold medal!

The boys were super (not) thrilled to be watching their sister's dance rehearsal!

Daddy couldn't make it to the recital because of work, but he was able to take a break from work during rehearsal to watch a few numbers. The girls were thrilled!

Curtain call! It was nearly 9:30 by this point...Ivy is behind the little girl holding Mac's hand and she had melted down just before going on stage. Just so you know, we could have left after their last numbers but both girls wanted to stay for curtain call! Poor Ivy couldn't hang though...


Pretty girl with her pretty flowers

Such a sad and sleepy little girl, trying to smile

with her amazing dance teacher, Ms. Caitie! Bless this baby, she was beside herself at this point
