Dance, Dance and more dance

It's that time of year. We had the two performances of The Nutcracker Tea Party on Dec 7th. All went well. I helped backstage during the first performance and enjoyed the tea party and performance at the second showing. The girls worked so hard for so long that it was gratifying to see the end result.

So... no more Nutcracker rehearsals til next year, but we jumped right into the twice-yearly "watch week" classes. Rylie has two classes Monday (plus assists during a Creative Movement class Mon afternoons), one Tues evening, one Wed (although that class we watch this coming week), one Thurs, and one Saturday morning.

On top of watch week, her Jazz Company had a performance Saturday afternoon at a nursing home and then she had to be back at 4:45 for a 5:15 voice recital.

Today (Sunday) the Jazz Company (along with the ballet company) had a performance at Union Station in downtown KC.

All were wonderful of course... and we have one more day of performances - this Friday she has 3 shows right in a row... two at two different daycare settings and one at the YMCA. THEN we'll finally get a much needed two week break!

But she lives and breathes dance... so it's all worth it!
