Our first twirling recital was a success.  And by success, I mean I didn't forget anything, the sequins stayed on, and the girls had a great time!  I think I could do this again-a year from now of course.  The pictures at the recital were a bit blurry and washed out-good thing I got some beforehand.

Those lips don't ever stay still.

 We loved the costumes.

Rylie's routine was performed to the song "Be Our Guest"

and "That's What Girls Do"

Hallie amazed us.  She doesn't usually like the spotlight.

She even posed and smiled without bribing.

 Hallie performed to the songs "Radio" and "Jitterbug".

These are the infamous shirts mentioned in the"What's Your Sequin Count" post.

Fun Day!!

At times I've had trouble with the thought that God delights in me, especially when I fail to get things right.  But in the moments I was watching my children tonight, I had a thought.  It wasn't about them catching the baton or getting their turns and steps perfect.  They're mine, and simply watching them was a delight.  But- even better; when I watched and SAW THEM take joy in life,

that's when I saw beauty in the dance!
