I am very slow in posting this, as I'm still waiting for my "professional photos" of the show, but isn't Maddie lovely as a dancer at the Mad Tea Party in BC Ballet Company's "Alice in Wonderland?" They performed this beautiful ballet (which included tap, jazz, and Irish numbers from the younger girls at the Dance, Etc. studio also) April 24-26 at the historic BC Theatre, owned by Desi Arnaz, Jr. and his wife, Miss Amy.
(These photos were taken at the dress rehearsal by our good friend, Jessica. She is so kind to share with us.)
Maddie concentrates hard on her arabesque. (She smiled more in the show!)
Look at that wonderful "form!"
Maddie drinks some "Mad Tea."
All ballerinas make "pretty hands and arms."
Maddie has danced at Dance, Etc. since she was three years old. She LOVES to dance. This year she only took ballet, opting out of tap and Irish for this year. After the last of four very tiring performances, Maddie informed me, "I think this was my favorite year of dance ever, Mom. I LOVED the show, I LOVED my dance, I LOVED my costume, I LOVED our hairdos, and I LOVED my teacher." If you are going to have an extracurricular activity, it might as well be something you love! We LOVED watching you and Ally dance, Maddie!

Maddie looks great and really seems to enjoy what she does. This might just be something she'll do all her life if she loves it that much. One of these days maybe i'll get to see the girls dance.
Wow - Maddie IS lovely & what a side benefit for me to get to see Becca too!
What nice pictures! Maddie is a pretty cute girl, er...I mean, young woman.
That is awesome that she loves it so much.
I love that first ballet picture. Beautiful feet, Maddie. :D
