Brooklyn's Dance Recital

I'm pretty sure this is the most excited I've ever seen Brooklyn. She could not wait for her dance recital! Every day she said, "Do I get to dance on the stage today??" They had a dress rehearsal and the next Saturday was the actual recital. So she had a taste of what the show would be like. On the way to drop her off back stage she was literally dragging me by the arm. She couldn't get there quick enough! Her teacher even said she has never seen anyone so excited for the recital:) The volunteers who watch them back stage gave me a "good luck" when I picked her up and mentioned that she was very "spirited." She has an abundance of energy.

Some pictures in her pretty costume..





After the recital she was greeted by family and given a bunch of flowers. She felt so special!


Her fans:) ( Auntie Kari came too but I didn't get a picture)




Brooklyn did an awesome job. She knew the dance really well when she was by herself but would get thrown off looking at the other girls. She had a very serious expression the whole time because she was looking for people in the audience. She said she couldn't see any people because the lights were too bright. At the actual recital she didn't smile until the curtains started closing and she could hear the audience clapping:)
These are the videos of the rehearsal...
