Last show of the year..:(

The show's title was shipwrecked.
The kids do most of the choreographing for the dances.
The first dance she was a "high society" Lady
we fond the dress at a thrift store and added the feathers to the bottom.
The next dance she was in was "lost souls"
 after the shipwreck
the 3rd dance she was in was "spiders" on the island that the survivors land on.
She always wanted to dance in a TUTU and have RED point shoes... and here she got both. I started to tear up watching her dance this one. knowing how long she has wanted this. It is soooo cool to see things your kids dream about come true.!!
She is the one 2nd from the right.

On one leg and turning on point..

Bow
Carlie and I

The Card I made for her and put in her dance bag.  Front Say's "Dream Big"
and inside " And Dance"
then I wrote " Dance to the music of your dreams, the steps will bring you joy"
I am SOOO proud of her!!!!

Group Dance Photo's

I just got e-mail with the group photo's from my daughters school. I just have to share them.... you know it's a mom thing..ha ha...
My Daughter is the 4th from the right. This dance is called High Society
the dance/play is about a cruise ship that crashes or something like that. the show is not tell june 18th.

Here she is in the back row far right. They are something like the ghost or something on the ship.

And here right side 2nd one back. and they are Spiders...yuck... but she has always wanted to have a tutu and RED point shoes. here she gets both. we had to dye the shoes. I used floral spray it worked great.

She is the one in the middle right side. a most of the girls bought new red point shoes. I think her's look just as good. some used red sharpies. 

Could not sleep so I made some cards

I could not sleep last night so I got up and made some cards from my bimonthy card kit  from www.paperwishes.com/personal-shopper/cm/monthly-cardmaking-kits.html 


on the BFF card I used the Double-Stick Flower Dazzles™  from http://www.paperwishes.com/ and put white Glitter on one side. I realy like how it turned out.
