Dance, Dance, and more Dance

Madelyn had another dance competition this weekend. This time she performed a solo for the first time ever. Then she did her team routines. She did really well!! I was so proud of her for getting out on that stage despite her fear and performing her little heart out. As nervous as she was I think I was even more so. She'd been working hard for months now with Amber (her teacher that choreographed it) and Jenna. Jenna was a life saver with polishing it up. We didn't know what to expect for placing after the solo...but she placed at the diamond level, won her category and out of all the novice solos for the day in all categories and age groups she placed third. Pretty good for her first time out. She was pretty proud and thought that it was really fun. Her teams also did really well and won overall awards. Here is a photo that we bought from the comp and the other one we took when she was getting her overall award.
