First Dance Recital

This afternoon E and Em performed in their first ever dance recital. They both did a great job and we were very proud of them. Em danced a ballet number and a tap number. E did a jazz number. The theme of the evening was Beauty and the Beast. The costumes were beautiful. I would love to be able to show everyone how pretty both girls looked but since we have a new camera, we (or I) have yet to be able to figure out exactly how to download the pictures (imagine that!). So eventually you will see how gorgeous the girls were in their dancing attire.
The entire recital lasted 3 and a half hours. Dad was a trooper and hung with us! Maw Maw and Paw Paw came also to see their sweeties. Dad gave his gals some beautiful flowers for dancing so well and they couldn't wait to get home and put them in vases. I'd also like to show you pics of those, but can't do that yet. One day, one day.

On another happy note, E. has two days left of school and Em has 4 days (but she might only go 2 more since her Sissy is going just two----her teacher said it would be fine). Tomorrow is awards day. :) Friday we leave for Orlando.....and Sunday, just a week from today, we get on the Disney cruise ship, the Wonder, to set sail for the private Disney Island and for the Bahamas---we'll be on a 5 day cruise!!!!!!!! We cannot wait!!!! We've heard nothing but great things about the Disney cruises. We've been on a carnival cruise and loved it so we know we love cruising and we love disney characters so this has to be THE BEST!!! After the cruise we will stay in Orlando a day or so and catch Universal Studios and or SeaWorld. (we are saving DisneyWorld for another trip) We'll say hi to Mickey and Cinderella for you!

Well, let me run for now. Need to get my little ballerina and jazz girl ready for bed. They are both tired ones. I am too come to think of it.
I might post a few pictures that are old just to post some pictures because Em says i need to post pictures. She likes to look at herself---(she is a child that is not in any way in short supply in the confidence department). :)

Have a good week everyone....I hope to post at least once before we leave on vacation.
