Madeline's dance recital and we're on our way!

Monday, June 10, 2013


Well, I was really hoping to get this post up before we left, but seeing that I am typing this from my iPad and the Atlanta airport, that apparently didn't happen. We are passing the time here during our almost 6 hour layover. Just 2 hours left to go. Lol.  We will board our plane bound for Seoul, South Korea at 1:15pm and arrive on Tuesday at 4:30pm (that would be Tuesday morning back in the States.)   We are surviving thanks to charging stations and electronic devices. I don't know how folks traveled transcontinental back in the day...I guess with lots of books. 

Anyway, I wanted to share a few photos from Madeline's dance recital. I took a few photos of some of the girls before the rehearsal on Thursday. Tropical Storm Andrea kept us right at the performing arts center instead of venturing around downtown. My sister Deb brought her camera along too and took some closer shots of Madeline and the girls. So I'm including her photos from the actual recital.  The theme for this year's children's program was Colors. Madeline's class was purple. Their ballet number was to the Barney song Perfectly Purple Day, and their tap number was to the One Eyed One Horn Flying Purple People Eater. All the classes were so cute.  It was such a joy to watch. 

Well next time you hear from us, we will be half way around the globe.  Continued prayers for safe travels would be appreciated.

Madeline looks so cute! I just love the little ones at the ballet recital. I just can't get Iris interested in dance at all. Ansley still takes and I love watching her dance. They are just not as funny at her age as they are at 5.

Have a great time in China. Wish we were going back. Can't wait to see Havi in your arms.
