Amelia's Jazz Recital

As we come to the end of a school year, we have programs, recitals, and celebrations galore. Last night was Amelia's jazz recital. She did SO well. She was offered a place on the competing team, but I think we'll wait one more year until we do that. She absolutely loves her dance class, works hard, and has a real talent for it---more than I ever did! :-) I didn't take a video because I opted to buy the CD of the whole recital, but here are a few pictures:

             In her "Footloose" number, she came flying offstage and nailed her round-off.

At the end of the rectial, Amelia's teacher called up a student from each class and awarded them the "most improved" award. This was the student who was always on time, listened during class and worked hard, and learned the routine the fastest with the least amount of mistakes. Basically it was the students she "didn't need to worry about." SO PROUD OF AMELIA!!

Next up, Amelia's ballet recital, Cooper's gymnastics showcase and more end-of-the-year parties and celebrations!
