As Long As There's Christmas

Saiah had her final ballet performances this last weekend. It was bittersweet. I really enjoy watching Saiah in ballet. She does a fairly good job with it and is improving with each session. It's also so nice to see her do something girly too!! Saiah has decided to not pursue ballet, at least this point in life, so this performance may very well be her final hurah in dance. It was fun while it lasted...I'm sure we're off to do basketball, softball, football, or heck..wrestling. Just kidding on the last one...or two.

The girls did a great job and looked beautiful, of course. They danced to "As Long As There's Christmas" from the Beauty and the Beast Christmas movie. Those of you who have princess girls may very well know this movie..we don't own a single Princess item in this household! When Miss Diana announced to the girls they'd be dancing to this song, there was a gleeful chorus of "yays" and clapping except for one girl, who stood there rolling her eyes. Yep, my daughter. She's so not into Princesses. But, she managed to learn the routine week after week listening to the song.

They did a few performances, and unfortunately, the best recording I was able to get, was of the one they did for The Festival of Treesl. The sounds not so good, but I got a good view of Saiah.
