Olivia's Final (?) Ballet Recital

Olivia had her ballet recital in late May, and it appears that this may be her last. She has informed us that after 3 years, she is going to retire from ballet. Maybe it is time to switch her to hip hop.... I was thrilled that her "final" year was a full costume recital, and I think that the outfit was absolutely beautiful! As you can see in the following pictures, it was a full make up recital as well. While I have very mixed feelings about that, Olivia is quite the stunner!

The big moment! Olivia is in front in this picture. She did a great job remembering the dance, which was considerably more complicated than last year's.

Ta Da!
