Yesterday was the end of year recital. Peanut danced all her competition dances in both performances. Plus, all of the competition girls did an amazing finale!! It was really cool.
The recital performances started with a BANG. Now I must tell you that Peanut and I have been going to the Mother/Daughter dance class since January. We've joined 8 other Mother/Daughter pairs in learning our routine. We danced to "DREAM GIRLS" - which meant that we danced sort of like Vegas Show Girls.
Obviously this was a big stretch for me. Now don't get me wrong - I love to dance and I especially LOVE to dance with Peanut. But dressing up as a show girl complete with boa and head dress definitely got me out of my comfort zone (think golf clothes and you're in my comfort zone)!
I decided to go all out! Why go part way?! I wore fake eye lashes and lots of makeup and nylons and heels and dress and boa and head dress.
So here's pictorial evidence of our adventures and the DVD is on order.....
So there, Laura, I do wear a dress - very infrequently....
A BIG thanks to all of the family that came to the recital to watch Peanut and suffer through our Mother/Daughter performance - I hope that you got a good laugh! We sure did!

Dress? Infrequently? how about in a Blue Moon???? Just kidding, it looks great! Especially the before the head thing picture- you could actually have been getting ready for almost any occassion- much more elegant than I was led to believe... But the red thing- looks almost a la Egyptian, if you know what I mean!
