Once again, Doxa’s recital told the story of Christ’s redeeming love. We love this dance studio. This year, we took Ben for the first time. He did great!

This year’s professional picture.
Five recitals already. How is this possible???
Rosemary’s recital theme this year was Frozen: The Love of Christ Can Melt a Frozen Heart. Rosemary isn’t a Frozen fan. At all. But, she managed to have good attitude through the prep and the program.
Her class was Northern Lights.
On our way to the dress rehearsal.
Rosemary’s class rehearsed the finale. It was to Let It Go. The song she likes least in the entire movie. I was just happy that she didn’t refuse to go on stage. That’s progress.
We could take pictures during the rehearsal from up in the balcony.
And afterwards we got a few shots outside.
Once again, we celebrated another fun ballet year with Rosemary’s end-of-the-year recital. This was Rosemary’s fourth recital and I think it was my favorite one thus far.
Rosemary’s dance was called “Asia” this year and it was great fun. It was pretty much everything you would expect.
Parents were able to take a photos from the balcony during the rehearsal.

Afterwards, we headed to Red Robin for a post-recital celebration. We picked up Ben and Charlotte from our friend’s home (thank you, Kevin & Debbie!) since they aren’t quite ready to sit through a 2 hour dance performance.
The day of the recital finally arrived and we got Rosemary’s hair back into her well-gelled bun, did the stage make-up, and got her dressed once again. Since it was overcast, she decided to wear her rain boots on the way there. It was a good choice. It was pouring later that night!
On our way!
Grandma and Grandpa Workmaster arrived just as we did.
Rosemary didn’t get a chance to see Grandpa Peine before the recital, but she gave him a big hug as soon as it was over.
