Recital day (Saturday) was a full day of dance... Brynn's rehearsal at 10am (originally earlier than a week but a snowstorm led to changed plans), Nyah's recital at 1pm, and Brynn's recital at 5pm. But they both LOVE the stage so the long day was so worth it!
Nyah during and after her recital was all smiles!
It wasn't like that until the moment she got in line to perform. I have to admit I have always known there was a 50/50 chance she would not get on stage due to her stubborn nature but I'll admit, I'm pretty stubborn too and I wasn't letting her drop out that easy! The day she got her costume she called it ugly and a few days later she tantrumed her way through pictures (Dad was the one there that time!). The next day I rushed back from an appt. in Richmond to get her to her rehearsal, where she refused to get dressed or on stage so we left. The day of the recital she had to be bribed to get dressed and as I hung out with her backstage, she refused to do anything, like play with the other girls, wanting just to sit by my side.
Guess who now says she loves her costume and wants to get on stage again??!!! LOL. She was adorable on stage. She would wave to me every few minutes and was as cute as a button!
Brynn, on the other hand, takes dance class solely for the days where she gets to be on stage. This year she is in a Hip Hop group.
She never disappoints on stage.
While I am pretty sure she was not doing the right moves at the right beat the majority of time, Brynn knows how to charm the audience and looks like she is having the time of her life on stage.
She is fun to watch!
She loved her costume too... I think it is her favorite so far and of course, it was red! We had no time to go get socks so I am was pretty thrilled to find out Caleb owned black baseball socks.
Her dad would prefer her not to wear the costume again... I think he likes his daughter in more conservative attire! LOL.
