International Music Festival

This is Curran & his friend getting their groove on to some awesome marimba music by Low Flying Knobs :)

Avery's winter recital

Avery is in the back row in a white shirt with red pinstripes. He starts out at what looks like the 3rd from the right. And below is Curran pretending to be Santa :)

Avery's 1st informal recital

This is after one month of classes. He has a yellow stripe on his shorts and stands near the middle or right in the second row for a lot of the dance. It was to the "Eye of the Tiger". And yes, he was the last one on stage. Poor guy had to perform after 8pm, he was quite tired, but he really enjoyed himself :)

Boogie woogie boy

Curran just watched this video with me and said, "I'm a good dancer, huh?"

We went to Curran's preschool open house this morning and he was very excited. He dismantled their kitchen area in two minutes flat. Tomorrow will be his first day.

The new shoes:

Ta da! Here is Avery's first pair of ballet slippers. His are the black ones of course. When we came home from the dance store, mama had to get out her well-worn ballet slippers so we could practice positions together :)

Like every child I have ever known, he loves to see how wide he can get his feet in 2nd position!

Whether or not he enjoys creative movement/ballet is yet to be seen, since class starts on November 2nd. Wish him luck!
