the recital...

Today was Addison's first school recital and oh my gosh was it amazing! Yes, a lot of work went into the production {from purchasing the tickets to convincing Addison that she needs to wear suntan tights instead of white ones to all the itty bitty details surrounding the logistics} it was awesome! The Wragge family came into town for the occasion and each of us got a little teary when our little performer took the stage. From where we were sitting it was perfect for her "solo" performance {i.e. when she got a little ahead of the game}. We are so proud of you dear sweet Addison!!!


Sweet Mari & Addison posing for their close ups on the red carpet.

I guess you could call us parents the paparazzi because there were flashes going off every 10 seconds!

Post performance pose and congratulatory hugs!!!
And every performer deserves a colorful bouquet!

{don't worry, Avery & Drew were home reading books with Miss Hannah}

Miss A & Miss D with their favorite girls! We so appreciate ALL of their hard work!!!
Grandma & Aunt Keli had a great idea to celebrate with a little ice cream to which
Addison's response was "Yay! Pink ice cream with strawberries!!!"
and then... my favorite photo of just her not wanting the paparazzi to take her photo yet still get a gem like this!
Today was a great day!!!
XOXO
