Ballet

Kendra started ballet this week and I figured it was the perfect time to start a blog. She has been begging to go to dance class all summer and dance with her friend Kate. I know nothing about dance (imagine that and I married a Long...) but I like all the tulle and "fru-fru". Donny was not very excited and wanted her in tee ball... uugghh. If you know Donny and Kendra, then you know that they like very "colorful" music. Keep that in mind...
So, we get to dance class and I quickly realized just how tomboy and lively my child was, I knew she would like it but not this much. I couldn't get a decent picture to save my life one because I am too big and pregnant to crawl on that floor and two because Kendra wouldn't get more than two inches from the teacher for fear of missing out on something. They told the little girls it was time to freestyle and wanted them to practice what they had learned... It can all be summed up with one word WOW! All the other girls were attempting to open their "notebooks" and bend their knees and so on... Kendra was shaking her butt and dancing so fast that she fell down twice (but quickly recovered to get back in the beat, which was so slow and sweet). I think she may be spending too much time in the garage with Papa!! The ballet instructors busted out laughing along with everyone else and said "I think this one is ready for Jazz."
I can't wait to see what stunt she pulls during the recital!
