Katy Ballerina

We enrolled Katy in ballet in March. She loves it. She is out for the summer until school starts and she keeps saying, when the brothers (aka Jack and Noah) are back in school then she will be back in ballet. They learn actually steps and not just a dance which is great. I like that she is learning ballet steps. They did a show in May, Cinderella. Katy's class were butterflies and they danced with older girls who were sunflowers and then a even older girl was the summer fairy and she danced around them as well. It was really cute. Katy was overwhelmed at dress rehearsals but did really well in the show. Then at the curtain call she kept bowing over and over again. She moves up a class for next year so we will see how that goes. Here are some photos from her class and show.

Dressed in her butterfly costume. I had to put her hair in a bun. That was a little bit complicated since her hair is so thin. We may have to rethink for the Nutcracker in December.
