Our little ballerina

What a way to end a fun year of ballet for Miss Zion! She had quite the fan club at her dance recital to watch her dance with her little ballerina friends! I was very proud watching her perform on the stage in front of hundreds of people! She is one special little lady. I love how ballet has taught her about grace and sophistication. She prances around the house all the time on her tip toes, showing us her moves. Ballet has taught her confidence and pride. She is one special girl! Zakiyah loved watching her sister perform! 

 We did a quick shoot at home before the big performance.

How cute is this pix!?

Zion's little buddies….. Lila and Sophia were in another performance. We got to snatch a pix of them though.

Pixie Hallow was a success!

Love using my imagination and creating these memories for my girls. It is magical! Do you have a favorite memory from a birthday or theme? Did you have a cartoon or character you were obsessed with? I loved everything girly! Rainbow Brite! Strawberry Shortcake! Sesame Street!  My parents always made me feel so special on my birthdays! I love the details of the celebrating and anticipating the parties with my kids! Such a blast!
