TUTU's go way back in our family

 Elizabeth had a dance recital yesterday.  I wish I had been there to watch it.  She may have thought she got her great dance skills from her mother - NO WAY - it was from her grandma.  I had nothing in the way of formal lessons, but I was exposed to dance and got a leotard and tutu because of my mom.  My mom took a job playing the piano for a small dance studio in Bountiful.  (I don't remember this actually, just heard stories).  As part of the payment, or maybe part of the babysitting, I was able to stand by the piano and dance along.  You can tell from the smiles in these two pictures, that something magically happens when you don ballet clothes.  My feet in the picture above don't look like they are in any ballet position - maybe I was concentrating on my hands looking good.

  2. Whether you had formal lessons or not, you danced you way into my heart.
