“Dancing almost always turns out to be a good idea.” ~- Anne Lamott

so again we are wrapping up another end to this years dance season

which brings lots of fun, family, costumes, hair, make-up, photos, time, trophies and tutus.

did i forget money. yes it takes some money too.

this is brooke's 10TH YEAR of dance

yes that's right her 10TH! which means she started at age 3!

(i'm still breathe less when i think of how fast she is growing. i mean next tuesday she is going to DC on a plane in the air with her classmates without her momma!!)

anyway, before i get all emotional on you here are few photo's from the weekend!

headed home.

i literally took pictures from the time we left the house, throughout the dance recital and all the way home(we only live two blocks, but still.) of her because she was so darn cute in the tutu.

i mean how many more years will she be able to pull off wearing a tutu?
