Isabella's 1st Holiday Dance Show

Bella has been practicing very hard for her very first dance performance. She even had dress rehearsal. She has been so excited about about dance and seems to really enjoy it, especially ballet.

Don't you just love the new forced smile she is giving me. It cracks me up!



She got to watch all the older girls dance first.

When it came showtime she was ready to go. No nerves for this girl. She placed herself front and center and performed her little heart out. Yes, we were the first ones there and yes, we were sitting on the front row and yes, we both had cameras. This was a very exciting day for me and I may have gone a little overboard with excitement for a mall performance but oh what sweet memories we will be able to look back on. She did a great job and we were so proud of her!

My beautiful dancer!





Her fan club!





Her biggest fan!
