Coppelia

The end of May meant one thing around here and that was the end of the ballet season and Callie's performance in Coppelia.  She was very excited and just a little nervous too.  Everything went perfectly wonderful except Granny and Poppy were not able to come and our camera decided to not flash!  We were sad that Granny and Poppy were missing and I was really ticked about the camera.  Thanks to our good friend, Mr. O, we have some pictures to share.  Callie and all the girls did a wonderful job, thanks to their teacher, Mrs. Hume.  She is a very patient and sweet teacher and she does an amazing job with these girls. 

The girls have to wear weird eye makeup or the lights with make them look like they have no eyes at all

Isn't she lovely?

Callie is in the back center

Callie was a little melancholy that evening and the next day.  I assumed she was tired, but she said she was "sad because ballet was over".  I, on the other hand, was quite happy to have a little freedom back in our week nights for a while.
