Dance, Dance!

The middle of November I took Iailey to a dance convention in Utah called Nuvo. It was a two day convention with some big names in dance teaching them. She was so excited because two of them were on So You Think You Can Dance and one of them still choreographs on it. I was so proud of her, she is such a hard worker. The first day was Friday, so she got up and went to half a day of school and then we drove down there and she started dancing at 3:00 and didn't get done until 9:00. They work them, they danced non stop with only a 15 minute break. She was so tired, but she never gave up. She was such a trooper! The next day was the same and she didn't feel real great, but she kept on dancing. I was so proud of her, she has such an amazing little attitude. I figured after all that she wouldn't want to do it again, but on the ride home that night, she asked me if she could do it again next year. Whew! I don't know will have to see next year. Of course I forgot my camera, but this is her brochure of teachers. They all have worked with very famous people or been in a famous production. It was neat that she had the opportunity to get to learn something from them.

On Dec. 19 was DSDS's Christmas dance show. She did such a great job and looked so pretty! Every year she improves so much, she is so fun to watch!

In her ballet costume. They did it to Let it Snow, it was such a pretty dance.

Iailey and her friend Jensyn. So cute girls.

This was for her tap dance to Hot Chocolate off polar express. It was a really cute dance.

In the back left is Masi, up front is Lexi, Iailey, and Jensyn they are all friends.

Loved Iailey and Lexi's expressions on this part. Quite the little actresses they are.

Looking cute shaking it.

This is the look I got when she didn't have time for a picture, but I really wanted one she looked so cute in this jazz costume, even with the give me a break mom look.





This was the girls showcasing the next dancers in their last dance and guess who else danced in this dance for those of you who didn't know about it? Beat you can't guess.

Iailey danced a swing dance with her friend Chase in this dance, to All I want for Christmas is You.

Look close in that kick line, that high kicker is Easton! Yep, I talked him into doing the swing dance. It was so fun and he even ended up having a great time. All the boys did great and want to do it again next year!

This was the funniest kick line you've ever seen, right after the kick line they all turned around and shook their butts. I couldn't take a pic because I was to busy laughing!

This was Easton playing air guitar on his partners leg.

Look at those tough boys swinging the girls around.

Soooo Cute!
