Snap and Clap day....

Ahh yes it was snap and clap day at Celia's ballet lessons this past Monday. Dave's been "out" on reading week so he was able to join Bennett and me as we watched what Celia has been learning from Mrs. Elaine. It was adorable! Each week I usually just catch a glimpse of the action via the 8" monitor hung precariously above the door and from time to time notice Celia watching some parts but over the last 8 weeks or so she's become quicker to engage with the other little ballerinas. This week was definitely her best. Maybe the joy of showcasing her talent to her beaming parents and jealous little sister...but whatever it was she loved it! Here are a few pictures to share

This is stretching and warming up your legs part....often times pretending to be butterflies flapping their wings

Here are the girls practicing Entrachat (?) when they jump from first to second position...They actually jump to "Who let the dogs out" . Quite funny....

Look at this precious girl focusing....

Here she is relaxing after class on the bar...you can see her handprints just below her to the right

Here's a close up of her handprints...so cute!
