Lauren had her ballet recital on Saturday. Here she is with her friend Illyanna before the recital. Lauren was ecstatic with her new "costume" and she even got to wear lipstick and a little blush since she was on a big stage with lights. The best part of the performance was the enormous yawn Lauren let out at the end of her dance. Everyone laughed. Lauren didn't even notice. She told me afterwards that she thought she was going to be embarrassed (nervous?) but she said "It was a lot of fun!"


At the end of the recital each dancer received a rose from the dance instructor.
