The Life of a Dancer...

After months and months of practice and hard work, the dancer gets to dress up and strut her stuff on stage. And everyone knows it's all about the costume. This year they rocked!

The dancer can hardly believe recital weekend is finally here. All day she asks if it's time to do hair and make-up. Her mom says "not yet...rehearsal isn't til 9:15" (which turned into 10:15...p.m.)

The dancer knows that Mrs. Karla's Dance Gallery "major production" always packs out a house. But she also knows the real fun happens behind the scenes. It's the smell of hairspray, the sound of tap shoes, an array of colorful costumes, and most of the all, the excitement of moms and their dancers.

The dancer is told IT'S TIME!! She steps on stage and dances her heart out. The crowd goes wild!

After it's all over the dancer is surrounded by flowers and family!
