Story's Christmas ballet recital.

Thursday night, Story had her Christmas ballet recital.  
Daddy bought her some new tights and slippers for the big day!
We took time for a photo shoot before heading over to the church.  
Mommy and Story.  
Story and Daddy!  
They're both quite smitten, don't you think? 

Here come the tiny dancers!

At this moment, I was pretty sure this was not going to go so well.  

Not long after, she definitely came off the stage and had to potty.  So we went.  And the whole way there and back, I explained to her how she was going to go back up on the stage with her friends.  

I was so proud of her when she did in fact return to her spot.  She did not dance, but she stayed out there.  I leaned over to tell our sweet friends, Miss Katie and Miss Kelsey, that I would just be thankful if she did one move, just one! 

The last song of the night was "Away in a Manger," and she definitely danced!  

I was so thankful!

Sweet ballerina!

Perhaps, by the time her spring performance comes around she will be more ready.  

I adore this picture!  Story with some of her sweet friends!

Cute little ballerinas.  

All the little girlies with their fearless leader, Miss Anna!

Story, you looked absolutely beautiful! 

Sweet sisters!

Story, we loved watching you dance tonight and are so very proud of you!
