Dance Recital

Scott's parents, grandparents and my parents came over to Boise to see Rachel's dance recital.  They showed up Friday night and we went out for dinner.  We went to the Black Bear Diner.  It was so good. Rachel had the chocolate chip pancakes and made a complete mess of herself.  She enjoys those chocolate chip pancakes.

Saturday we had the early dance recital time.  We had to be at the church by 9:45. We were all excited.  I was worried if she would actually do her dance or just do her own little thing up there.  (That's normally what she does during class is not pay attention and dances to her own little beat of the drum).  She surprised me with how well she danced and paid attention to what she was supposed to be doing. 

Getting her ready to do the ballet dance first.

 Everyone sitting and waiting.

This is Mrs. Sheri her dance teacher.  She was so good with Rachel.

 In her spot ready for the 1st dance which was the ballet portion.

Her stance to start the dance.  It's actually pretty good form for her.

After the ballet portion she then had to get ready for the tap dance section.  She loved tap because she loved making all the noise with the shoes. She's a very pretty butterfly.  She did so awesome.  She was actually doing the dance with all the rest of the kids and wasn't spinning around when she wasn't supposed to.

 Kristin came to see her dance.
