Alex's new tutu.

I found a really cute and easy way to make a tutu online last week. I just had to try it!! And I was also excited about an inexpensive way to have a new outfit for the recital!!

Here's the back.
Our other two ballerinas will have theirs done, too, for the recital in two weeks. They can't wait! I will post pics of that when it happens. :)

Our newest little ballerina

Brianna looks so sweet in her little leotard! She just adores ballet - especially since she gets to do it with her best friend Emmi! There are a lot of her friends in the class. It will be so sweet to watch her first recital. :) Check out these poses!

Back to Ballet

The girls started their next session of ballet this week. We are so excited! Brianna had her first class ever this time and was so sad when she had to be done! She wanted to go back and dance on stage! :0) I can't wait for their recital. And of course, I forgot my camera!!! I'm going to try to remember next week...

Praising Princesses - Spring 2008

The time has finally come for our recital!! Alex and Taylor had their ballet recital on May 20th. They were lovely!

Stacey and Jake joined us. That was so sweet of them to come!

Our oldest Praising Princess

Our second Praising Princess


They did so well. We are so proud of them!
Here they are saying the Praising Princess pledge. Miss Karin has taught them that they are true princesses because they are children of the King!

Sooo cute. Jake brought them some lilacs to give them after their dance. Thanks, Jacob! How sweet. :)
Taylor, Miss Karin, and Alex. We love you, Miss Karin, and thank God for you and your love for us. We are so grateful for you teaching us to glorify God in our dance for Him!
Daddy bought the girls a rose, too. He was very proud of them. We love you, girls! We hope you will always want to be beautiful and glorifying to God with your music!

Ballet Princesses

Today for ballet class, Miss Karin (teacher) had all the girls wear a dress that made them feel pretty to dance in instead of their ballet leotards. The girls were completely excited about this! Mommy was too. I had fun dressing them up in a little makeup and doing up-dos for them. :) I knew I wanted girls! :) I'm sure Bethany is thankful that I don't live at home with her anymore so I can't make her let me do her hair... Right, Beeth? :)

Here they are in their beautiful dresses. They told me that they are standing in first position.
My beautiful dolls.

They are loving ballet class. Only 2 more classes and then the recital! They can't wait. We are praying that the costumes come in time!!

God has blessed us with beautiful girls that want to learn how to glorify God. Even in dance!
