Lauren performed in her third dance recital.
This year she danced to 'Going to the Chapel'
and wore a bridal costume.
which stressed both her dad & I out a little bit
And much like the cliche bride theme,
there were a few moments during the process,
that were a little 'bride-zilla' like.
Our tiny dancer was all about the hair and makeup
but things started to turn south when it came time to put the costumer on.
It itched.
While I tried to distract her with some lotion on the itchy area,
her comfy cozy robe seemed to provide the comfort needed.
Things went south again when we requested she remove the robe so we could get a picture of our blushing bride.
Thankfully, things turned around when we arrived to the auditorium and she was able to reunite with her sweet little dance crew.
She had a wonderful little performance,
spotting mom & dad sitting in the front row about half way through,
while her sister tried to wiggle from our laps to have her own moment on stage through most of the show.

A big part of my mama heart wanted a picture of her posed on the front step in that comfy cozy robe.
Because while the posed pictures and big smiles are so sweet,
I think the memories of the real stuff is so good.
So, heres to remembering the bridal meltdown,
the comfy cozy robe,
the itch cream that we brought to the recital and reapplied,
but most of all our tiny dancer.
