Life is Better When You Dance

7 Costumes... check

Red lipstick... check

Fake eyelashes... check. 

Hours and hours of watching our girls do what they love? Check.

Dance competitions are here and I absolutely love watching our girls dance. They have improved so much these last few years and really shine on the dance floor. This year Makayla is doing a solo to a song called, "Salvation." Doing a solo can be intimidating, but she goes onstage with such confidence and dances beautifully. 

Makayla is on a winning streak and has earned 1st place, high gold in her first 3 competitions!!

This is her choreographer and teacher, Haiden. Haiden has given Makayla a level of confidence that I just love and am so grateful for. 

Makayla's jazz dance this year is called 2020. It makes fun of the weird covid year, like masks, gloves, soap, scrub..The girls costumes are business on top and party on the bottom, with bright pink gloves. 

Makayla's lyrical dance is called "Breathe" and I love this dance because Makayla has a few solo parts where she is showcased. 

This was the first year for our girls doing hip hop and they loved it! Makayla's dance is called "Track Stars". 

Brynnli's jazz dance is "Glitter". Brynnli has a few parts in this dance where she is showcased by being lifted. 

Her lyrical dance is called "Journey to the past" and their costumes are absolutely stunning. 

My favorite dance of Brynnli's is her Hip Hop dance called "Carmen Sandiego" Brynnli really knows how to do the facials and sass it up... if you can ever find her in the dance... there are over 30 dancers in this dance.

But the MVP of our family has to go to this kid, who being the amazing brother that he is goes to every dance competition and cheers on his sisters... even when we are there for 10-12 hours. I would definitely award him "1st place, high gold, higher than high gold, platinum gold, and Parent's Choice Award" (Just a little dance humor if you get what I mean). Caden is definitely the best dance brother around. 

Life really is better when you dance!
