Hailey's BIG Day...

Saturday was CRAZY for Hailey (and I guess for me as well...). Her day began with a 6-hour dress rehearsal for her upcoming ballet recital (there are two casts and she's in both--thus the long rehearsal). She is a beautiful dancer and looks so petite when she dances on pointe.She had about 30 minutes after her dress rehearsal to get ready for her jazz and hip hop recital that started at 4 pm. I LOVE watching Hailey in these dance genres. She is the smallest--but the spunkiest!

Hip hop is my favorite and I think it's Hailey's too. She gets to throw a back flip and an aerial in the routine and her little body has some funk goin' on!

Since her 14th birthday is Tuesday, May 12 and there are NO free nights on the calendar for the next several weeks, Hailey decided to "squeeze in" a birthday party that night too~!

She had fabulous food (Panda Express), fun (manicures & movies) and friends (13 in all)!

GREAT DAY... but glad it's over!

I'd love to see her dance sometime! I think I'd rather watch hip hop too! She looks so cute in her various costumes. Your kids must have so much energy and stamina to be able to do all they do!!! Happy B-day to Hailey! We love her!

I am sad to have Hailey go to Mia Maids. I'm selfish, I know, but I will miss her "spunkiness." Happy Birthday to Hailey! How you keep up with it, Alicia, I will never know :)
