The Big Show

It has been 9 long months of anticipation!

The Big Show! Starring Taylor and friends

On Saturday (5/21) We arrived at the BJCC at 3:30pm, the show was to start at 4:29pm, only to find that the 1:01 show was running long. I took Taylor back to the dressing room around 4:00 and changed her.

Her costume was very fragile so I wanted to wait till the last minute to ensure it didn't get ripped before the show. There was also a dreadful flower for her hair. I had no idea what to do with it so I ripped it off the clip and went to work on it. I finally was able to get Taylor's hair in a side ponny tail and used 4 bobby pins to pin that flower down. (I just threw the clip away)

After getting her dressed, I had a surprise for Taylor. I asked her if she wanted to wear makeup for her dance. She lit up like a christmas tree! I dabbed a little blush on her cheeks and some pink diamonds lip gloss on her lips. She beamed!

We were able to link up with Gracie (one of Taylor's many BFFs).

Aren't they precious!!!

It seems like we were in the dressing room forever!

Finally we were called to Back Stage

Ms. Laura, her dance teacher. Taylor loves her!!

The show began and this is the only picture I took! I wanted to watch her with out the lens between us!

I was in tears by the time it was over! I am so proud of her! She did her absolute best and was awesome! (I hope to figure out how to upload the video from our camera and put it on here)

I picked Taylor up back stage and we waited in the lobby for Daddy! She was so surprised when he handed her flowers!

While we waited for the rest of the family to come out we took pictures and Taylor danced.

MamaZan was the first one out and brought more flowers! Taylor was very excited!

The best we could do on a family photo

Taylor was told she could choose where we all went to dinner, she chose Mexicalli. She wanted to chip and dip!

The waiter brought out Flan  for Taylor and the big hat...she wouldn't have anything to do with it! LOL!

Several of us ended up with hat on...some not by choice!

Mac thought the hat was pretty funny....

Until Alex tried to put it on him.... He was not a fan!

Recital day was exciting, awesome and extremely exhausting!

We are still working on getting the video off of the little tape and onto the computer. If you know how to do this contact me please!
