a couple of months ago my two darlings started a “dance” class, called music and movement….they were so excited about it! the very first day was fun, and the girls loved dancing and moving to the music…but the cutest part of the entire experience was getting them ready! they were so excited about their new dance class and of course…what they should wear to dance class. my girls love to dress up, and really love to jam out to music here at home…i had bought them each a set of appropriate dance outfits, and was hoping thy would think they were cool, but instead, they insisted on wearing the dress up leotard i had bought for goofing off in. (which may i also tell you were way to small for them…)
after making a commitment long ago to always let them express themselves(which sometimes back fires on us, although no matter what they wear out, they still look so darn cute!))…with one exceptions of course, that they have to be fully clothed when we have visitors in the house.
so i made this little mini album (which i still need to do the journaling in) and just love it! it is of our first day getting ready to go to dance class. i used all the sweet whimsy stuff that is available at joanns fabric right now.
i guest blogged about it over at colorbok, but did not want to bore those readers with all the details, so if you want a quick review check it out there.
these is my favorite pages…i loved stitching in the little circles…i think it look so cute but totally modern!
can you believe what a cute man he is!!! he is such a great dad, he jumps right in there with the things that might normally be “girl stuff” and i love him for it. of course he puts his daddy spin on it, and it is so cute! also, he is such a huge help in getting them ready/taking care of them…but does it in such a fun way for them!!! i love you babe!
i had to add boa…it was just so fitting!
our sweet ireland…
our spunky reagan….
they really do take care of each other…
reagan is really in to helping me with my “work”, so this we her contribution…so cute!
like i said, i still need to do all the journaling, but just wanted to share! the girls love looking at the little mini book i make for them, and gosh…they will be doing them before i know it…
