Dance Recital

Peyton had her very first dance recital on December 16th. She was so so excited and couldn't wait for the that evening to get all dolled up with make-up and her hair all curled.

I was hoping that little miss thing would do great as her uncle was coming to watch her perform. We got there an hour early and they had there rehearsal before the big show started. We were so excited and waiting for Peyton's dance to come on couldn't wait to watch her light up the stage. This little girl knew her dance so well and would perform it at home for us any chance I would let her!

It was now Peyton's turn to dance.......the curtains open and there they are all ready to dance! They all looked so cute, the music starts and all the girls start and look so cute as they are all on key! It was great and I was so proud of Peyton for being a big girl!! After dancing for about 45 seconds the little girl next to Peyton decided to run off the stage. Peyton sees this and thinks she will join her. So then we see Peyton running off the stage after Madison and leaving her dance and all behind her. Next you see Peyton's teacher Miss Kami bring the girls back out on stage. Peyton then stand there staring at her teacher that is off on the side of the stage and glares at her teacher the whole rest of the dance.

Peyton is a very stubborn girl. If she doesn't agree with something she will let you know. I'm pretty sure that because her teacher brought them back out on stage she was upset and then decided to not dance the rest of the time. When the whole recital was over I asked her what happened. Her response was "Mom the curtains were so big and scary, and there were way too many people there watching me!" I don't blame her to a point because there were probably about 250 people watching all those little girls!!

I was so sad that she didn't finish her dance and that she chose to be a stinker. I'm hoping that her next recital will go better and she doesn't decide to run off the stage.

Peyton with her uncle Taylor! She LOVES him sooo much!
