Merry Christmas Darling

Hallee had her Christmas recital today.  They danced to "Merry Christmas Darling." 

Tessa and Hallee looked adorable. 

They both love to dance and they are both beautiful dancers.

They both wanted to take ballet this year.  They have dance every Monday at a studio over by Tiff's house.

It doesn't get much better than taking dance with your best friend!

The girls played bubble gum, bubble gum while they waited for the show to start.

 Hallee and Tessa are so lucky to have such nice cousins who wanted to come and watch them. Listening to Kyle and EJ's commentary during the recital might have been my favorite part.  There were a lot of young classes, so there was some pretty funny stuff and Kyle and EJ's comments were cracking me up.

Hallee and Tessa's class was the only one that didn't have a teacher doing the dance off to the side.  The whole class knew the dance and did great. 

Hallee knew every step and did them beautifully.

They each took a turn dancing with the star, here is Hallee passing it off to Tessa.

Hallee loves her costume.  She wants to wear it to church tomorrow and again on Christmas.  It's nice that it is something she can wear again.

They really did an amazing job, the whole dance was so good.

I love how Hallee makes sure that her movements and form are just right.

Here is the group that came to support the girls.  We are so lucky to have such a supportive family.

I traded places with Mel so I could be in one of the pictures.

We are all so excited that EJ is home for Christmas.  We have missed him!

It meant so much that EJ would take time from his leave to come to the girls recital.  He also brought them each a stuffed animal, he is amazing!

Grandma and grandpa are always so supportive.  They brought the girls a special treat too.

Hallee loved having us all there watching her.

I looked over and saw Elijah playing with Hallee.  My kids sure hit the jackpot with the best cousins ever!
