Hallie has been so excited for her dance recital and even more exciting than that was the fact that both of her grandmas were going to be there. She has been practicing really hard and has gotten quite good over the past year of dance. She danced to the song "Lollipop" and the girls had suckers as a prop to dance with along with their costumes.
Such a little poser
With a great sense of humor(thanks to her daddy)
Hallie did a fantastic job and barely even watched her teachers. She was smiling ear to ear...we are so proud of her. It is fun to watch your kids learn and grow. To find what they like and don't like and what they are great at. Afterwards she was really excited when we gave her a little treat(a bag of jelly belly jellybeans) and got a bunch of pictures. Matt's mom had to leave after Hallie's dance so she could travel to a convention so that is why she is missing in our group pictures. We also missed Matt's dad he was planning on coming but got held up at work:( but he was so sweet and sent Hallie a text both to wish her good luck and a follow up one to see how it went and how she did. She thought it was so cool that she got a couple text messages addressed to her and I thought it was so thoughtful of him to remember her.
About every time we stopped Hallie asked for another picture with her grandma. They seem to have a special bond almost like she just gets Hallie. I often wonder if its because she is the first grandchild, the first one to make my mom a grandma. Whatever it is I'm glad that she has that and is so very loved.
We are excited to see what Hallie decides she wants to try and excel at. I think she will be great at whatever she does. She is such a sweet, loving, smart, and talented little girl at whatever she has done so far and I'm sure it will continue. Matt and I feel very blessed that she is ours.
