Prima Ballerina Dancing Queen

Or, sometimes, we also call her Katelyn.She is now our resident dancer. Well, our resident dancer who is actually taking lessons for it. I guess Madelyn and I don’t count. Her first class was last Saturday morning and to say she LOVED it would be an understatement. She would have stayed all day and partaken in every class if she were able. We had to explain (over and over and over again) that we were coming back the following week and that was not to be her only lesson. She was with the cutest group of four year old girls. I loved her teacher, Miss Stacey, who is the epitome of a graceful and beautiful dance teacher. This age group does not focus on any one style. Right now the focus is on following directions, having fun with movement, learning balance, some dance basics and whether or not the kids really do have a love for dance. There were many proud parents there so we were all snapping pictures of our children through windows and doors. The dance teachers acted like we weren’t there. You can tell they’re used to it! You can see the reflection in the door in which we were taking pictures from but I think we still got some good shots.

She turned around and gave Mike a little happy wave. Unfortunately the quality of the picture isn’t real clear.

  • What a cute little ballerina! Looks likes she is loving it! I love the picture of them running like butterflies and the one where she is turned around waving to you guys. That's priceless. You will be so happy you put her in these classes - not just for your vicarious living either! She will get a lot of good out of this. I can't wait to see her first performance!

    The pictures of Katelyn are adorable! I can't believe how cute she looks in her outfit. I would love to see her perform sometime when we are up there:)

    I love it! She is so cute in her outfit. I'm glad she is enjoying it. How fun for her (and you) :)
  • I had no idea you had dancing aspirations! lol Very cute pics! I'm sure she'll enjoy herself. You can always contact Grace for any dancing tips. She took tap, jazz, and ballet when she was little. I can still remember going to her recital and they danced to a song called "Baby Take a Bow". haha
