Between Anika's dance recital, and soccer finishing up... we now have time to live :)
Anika's dance recital was awesome. They did so well! We are such proud parents. Since September, Anika has been taking a dance class called "Little Ballerina's" at the Royal Dance Conservatory. They started out with 5 little girls and ended the season with only 3 of them. At the recital I found out that the 2 other girls in Anika's group were both just turning 7 years old! My poor Anika isn't even 5 yet! Considering this was her first year in dance, she did well. Many of you have heard the story of Anika not having any grace, and that we thought she'd probably stick to sports. But now we are second guessing ourselves. She was the ugly duckling that turned into the swan. It was awesome to watch!!
Here are a couple of pictures from the night of her recital...
Isn't she the cutest thing you've ever seen??
The big thing after the dance recital was that Anika wanted to get her hair cut!! We have talked lots about this, but her hair is so thick and is such a rats nest when she gets up in the morning that we usually end up leaving the house in the morning with her in tears because it hurts when we brush it. So after soccer last Tuesday we head to the hairdresser and off came about 6 inches. When she was getting it cut, I asked her "What's Grandma going to say??" her response... "Noooooooooo!!!!!" LOL!!
Here she is...
Here she is...
Soccer is now finished. We had our wind-up picnic at St.Vital Park tonight. It was great! The kids had a lot of fun. 2 of the boys on her team are going to be in her kindergarden class. Tuesdays game was the best game Anika played. Most nights that she played she lost interest half way through and complained that her belly was hurting. After the game she got a team picture and a medal. She is so proud of her first medal.. and its even engraved with her team name and HER name!!! I'll post a picture as soon as I get it moved over from my work computer to my home computer.
