Emma First Dance Competition

I know some of you are patiently waiting for me to post about our cruise on the Disney Wonder two weeks ago, and some not so patiently...Clinton, but we got home just in time to get ready for Em's first dance competition.

It was this past weekend in Waco, at the Cheer for Charity event. I had been calm all week, but Sunday morning, I was a nervous wreck! We woke up early, got Em's hair curled, ate breakfast, and headed to meet the rest of the teams to get all dolled up!

Dance Dad!

All made up and ready to head to the competition!

We all ate some lunch, then headed to the high school where the competition was being held. We were a little behind, so it was a bit of a rush to get dressed and glittered!

All ready to go!

She wasn't nervous a bit, but I was up in the stands waiting and trying not to puke. It wasn't long, they were 2nd in the line-up!

Em is in the middle of the front row, once they get lined up!

Then we got to watch the Youth & Seniors perform!

They both did so great! Loved the Seniors tribute to Breast Cancer Awareness! After everyone performed, the girls got changed and got to pick out a prize for performing!

Em & Hannah got some cool new shades!

The girls watched the cheerleaders performances together! They are such a good group of girls! Already the best of friends!

Then it was time for awards!

They won! So excited!

Three first place trophies! Clean sweep!

Go Minis!!

Yes, I cried. Twice. When they were dancing and again during awards. So proud of my baby girl!
