Our Beautiful Ballerina

Caroline had her very first ballet recital this month. She has been taking a ballet/tap combo class since August. For the recital called "Under the Sea", her class performed a ballet number. Caroline was so excited to dance a ballet on the stage! She has loved dance this year and dances around the house all the time. I have been very impressed with all that she has learned. She knows first through fourth positions and has learned many French ballet terms. Her favorite move she performed in the recital is "arabesque around the world"! I loved Caroline's recital costume. Her class wore a mixture of pink, yellow, and teal costumes. For some reason, her teacher chose pink for her! I think she got to know Caroline pretty well in class!

Caroline did a great job during the recital. She was such a graceful ballerina! (These pictures were actually taken during the dress rehearsal because no flash photography was allowed during the actual performance.)
