Anna | First Ballet Class In Photos
Tags:
Last week Anna attended her first ballet/tap class.
Her enthusiasm was awesome. She was so excited to pack up a ballet bag that included slippers and tap shoes and head to class.
There's no doubt I was really, really excited too. I got to watch her through a window and loved seeing her experience the motions and follow directions and watch the other girls.
She's totally ready to go again this week.
Love that she's getting to do something that is just for her.
I'm getting excited about the upcoming Craft & Hobby Association trade show later this month. I'll be attending for the first time since Anna was born - time is flying.
Today I wanted to share a quick sneak peek of some brads from Elizabeth Kartchner's Dear Lizzy Neapolitan line for American Crafts. That little fabric brad with the camera is super cute. Her new line features 22 papers, including a darling stitched ruffle paper & three patterned vellum papers. Complementing the papers are a variety of embellishments from painted wood buttons, epoxy stickers, chipboard word banners, embroidered brads & woodgrain chipboard pieces. Other new additions joining in on the fun are Flutterbys (sewn butterfly & pendant banners), a Roller & Phrase Stamp and Paper Pinwheels.

How great that you can watch without being observed. May Anna's enthusiasm continue for years to come.

Brings back memories of when Molly was that age and started ballet-so fun to watch them. She is so darling and yes, time goes by soooo fast. My little ballerina is now ten, has shrugged of ballet for hiphop and cheerleading but still loves pink and is stil a hoot. Enjoy your girl!

You'll have to get a shadow box for the slippers too. They look really nice in them afterwards.

I remember my daughter's first class - she was so excited. She was not quite 3. She had her last recital the week after she graduated from high school. That was a lot of dance classes. It gave her poise, self esteem, confidence & a life long love of dance. She's 28 & dance is still her favorite exercise & stress reliever.
