Final Ballet Performance

Sunday was Ally’s final ballet performance. She has decided to focus completely on gymnastics and will not continue ballet. This is entirely Ally’s decision and Becky and I are supportive of it.

While I am sad to see her stop dancing, it has been too much and Ally will practice 5 days a week for 18.5 hours in the fall.  

Some flashback pictures:

First day of ballet 5 years ago and last day of class last week.

From 2015 when Grandma Debbie came to visit to see Ally’s first recital

And 2019:

Look how much taller she is!!!

And so much more grown up. 

This year I dropped her off outside the venue and she went in all by herself with her costume and stuff. 

In 5 months she will be a teenager. Where does the time go?
