The girls took ballet this year. I signed them up late (October), but it was a sweet little program at a local church, and they could be in the same class. They loved it, although at times I wonder if that is really Annelise's thing. Hadleigh Claire loved every minute of it, and Annelise especially liked jumping from dot to dot and making faces in the mirrors. She did pick up a few moves, and overall I think it boosted their confidence. We missed their "big" recital, but still were able to dress up for the rehearsal, ballet buns and everything. It took me an hour, lots of gel and hair spray and bobby pins to get their hair up. I am hoping to get their hair a bit longer for their next rehearsal (next spring).
We have changed significantly since beginning this blog 5 years ago. Then we were a young couple, living in Europe exploring our world; now we are a family of 5, living in the South. Our adventures used to include exploring new cities, countries and sites, and now include living day by day with a desire to act justly, love mercy and walk humbly. This is a small window into our world, a journal of adventures that continue to shape our lives.
