ballet, baby!

every fortnight Jada attends classes at our local homeschool group. one of her elective classes has been beginner ballet. so today the boys and I went along to have a look.

see? not as easy as it looks huh ;)

the instructor is all kinds of lovely and has the patience of a saint.
i'm pleased we visited.

  5. Ahhh...the Kellie Hampton Fantasy World. I swear that woman has a team of "aides" to live that fantasy life she lives! Your ballet lessons are "real world" and just as much fun!
