Just DANCE...

In scrolling through some previously un-blogged pictures, I came across this set today.  These were taken at the beginning of December at the kids' winter recital.  This year, four of our five kids are dancing. Even Landon...he's doing a boys Hip Hop/tumbling class taught by Ashley and he LOVES it. Of course, I wasn't organized enough to get a picture of everyone in their costumes, but at least I got one of all of the four dancers together. As you can see, it took a few tries...(still not a PERFECT one...but that doesn't happen very often anyway.....)

Parker and Landon.  Landon's dance was "hard knock life" which is why he has a dirty face.  

Presley gets so shy!  This is her "I'm really trying NOT to smile face..."

Then" I'll just look away...maybe if I'm not looking I can smile..."

Oh good, she's finally looking!  Oh what?  Pacie closed her eyes?  Sigh.  Like i said.  No such thing as a "perfect" picture!

Landon had an 8 count of free-style in his dance.  Here are a couple of his moves.  The worm in action..

and again...wormin' it up.

The classic "sprinkler".

Not to be outdone, Piper jumped into the picture.  Rosy little cheeks are her signature trademark.

I love Infinity!  It has instilled such a wonderful work ethic and confidence in my older girls.  This is Presley's second year dancing and she loves it as well.  I am sure Piper will join the ranks next fall, when she's 3.  (Yikes!)  Competition season is just around the corner.  All of the hard work comes to fruition then!  We absolutely LOVE watching our kids on stage.  And as Parker and Pacie are maturing into older, more accomplished dancers, I can say there are moments where they literally take our breath away.  It is something amazing as a parent to watch your children find and develop their talents.  Somehow dance seems to be something that they are all skilled (and interested) in.  So, dance on kids.  We'll keep watching and supporting and loving you through it all.
