Dance Recital = longest day ever (at least for Mommy!)

So today was my dance recital(s). We performed All Shook Up and Centerfield for all 3 shows! It was super fun. Mom helped out during the first 2 shows and she was exhausted. There are 10 girls and me to change and get makeup (girls) and hair (girls) ready and 4 mommy helpers. The mommies were running around like crazy throwing glitter and lip gloss here and there and everywhere (not on me!) I wasn't tired at all, though and I didn't complain once! We got there are 12:15 and didn't leave til about 7:45pm! Talk about long day!

For the 1st show, Auntie Jen, Uncle Ken, Connor, Bella, Auntie Lydia, and Uncle Ryan came to watch! They brought balloons and chocolate! Thanks! They had lunch with Daddy and Brendan. And then Daddy watched baby Lucas at our house, while they were watching my performances. I was excited to have "fans". Then for the last show, Mommy and Daddy and Brendan watched, along with Auntie Betty, Uncle Joel and baby Joie (she is so cute!) Later, Auntie Betty and Uncle Joel brought Joie over to our house for dinner. I played crazy soccer with Uncle Joel and Brendan too. Super fun day! (and now I am tired)
