Meli's Ballet Recital

After a year of really hard work, blisters on her feet, and a four-dress-size loss, Meli finally had her first ballet recital in seven years today. She was really nervous at first, but I believe that she did amazingly well. We also got to see a one of our student instructors do a hip-hop/breaking routine, and a former little student get to hop like a bunny around the stage.

Nathan had a great time through the whole thing and sat really well through the whole thing. He really loved to see the tap dances and kept saying "Pat, Pat, Pat" while those girls were dancing.

Meli is already plotting a pointe solo for next year. I'll put video of this recital up as soon as I can encode it to a file. Until then, here are some pictures.
