Hey, girls! Madi here. Tomorrow and Wednesday I have dance recitals. I am performing five different dances! I’m pretty nervous, so please pray for me. I need to practice as much as possible, so I won’t be posting until after Wednesday. I do have a really cool post in the makings, and I am so excited for it. There will be different parts, and it will be suspenseful, interesting, and very, very sweet. ;)
See you all after my recitals are over, and your prayers are very much appreciated!
Love you all,
EDIT: Hey girls! I am back from both recitals! I had so much fun. I thought it would be way worse and stressful and that I’d be scared stiff and so nervous…but it went very quick and fun! I loved it so much and can’t wait for the Spring recital… only the Spring one will be WAY more professional! (Oh dear!) Lights, a real stage, in front of way more people, and everything. LOL. Well, I don’t have all the videos of my dances yet, but I have the video of our opening dance we did the first night! My early departure at the end is because I had another dance DIRECTLY AFTER THAT, in which I had to change costumes, so I was in a rush. LOL.

(Click the link to watch the video. It opens in another tab, but you’re still at this website.)
Some people are missing because they couldn’t make it, that’s why the spacing is off. I am the tall one with the black-and-white patterned scarf and black glasses. You can’t tell, but I’m wearing a little makeup, too – it was really fun to feel so beautiful for the performance!
By the way, thanks for praying about my recitals, girls! Coming up in the near future, I have an excited post planned for y’all. I’m also excited about Christmas… we decorated our house today! It looks so festive with a mini Christmas tree on the table, a big red bow on our front door, singing snowmen and a sculpture of a snow village in my room, and a few lights strung outside our house! :)
I have a Christmas AGSM in the makings, too… eek! :D I can’t wait to post it when it’s done, hopefully before Christmas. It really is taking forever, because I’m doing it with a new camera and my computer is constantly running out of space. Blah! Oh, well. Stay tuned for exciting posts coming up!
Oooh fancy! (I’m performing multiple dances too — it’s quite nerve-wrecking!) Anyways, good luck!
Do you take tap and gymnastics only, or other dance styles too? I can never remember!
I take tap, jazz, and ballet, plus I’m on Team. I used to take another tap class and gymnastics class, but we had to quit those ’cause of budget cuts. (Pooh.) I’m going to take least gymnastics again later on this year when we get the money :D .
Oh, so similar to me! I take a few ballet, lyrical, and jazz. I just had to quit tap though because of scheduling. :(
I’m glad it went well! You did a good job!
Coolness! Aw, that stinks. :(
Thank you so much!
I will pray for you! I bet you will to spectacular on each and every dance! I wish you luck :D
Thank you so much, Halo! :D
I’ve got ya covered, Madi! Good luck with the dance recitals—five dances in just two nights is pretty amazing. ;)
By the way, what kind of dance do you take?
Really looking forward to the upcoming posts! :D

Thank you very much! I take tap, jazz, ballet, and I’m on Team. I used to take another tap class, but we had to quit that one.
Question: what is Team? ;)
And that is awesome! I took a dance class when I was little (not sure what type of dance class it was…) but the teacher almost never showed up for some reason. So I think I maybe only took like two or three classes. :P
I CAN’T WAIT FOR CHRISTMAS EITHER!!! :D :D Only four more days!
What’s the number one thing you want for Christmas? :D I really am hoping I get some doll-related stuff! :)

Team is where the best dancers of each class get invited to one big class, or team! Team usually travels and performs and works on leadership skills. It was an honor to join, because that means I’m a pretty good dancer, considering I’ve only taken dance this year! (Well, besides a class or two of ballet when I was really little, but that doesn’t count. :P)
LOL! :P Maybe it was ballet?
I AM SO EXCITED! :D :D :D Surprisingly, the time is passing by really fast with all the Christmas cards I’ve been sending, the presents I’ve been wrapping, the planning I’ve been doing for upcoming events in my life, etc.
Well, I’m hoping for Mini Emily, the AG Crafts Super Paper Pad, and an AG book! Those are my major things, but I asked for a some other little AG stuff too, like AG Crafts girl stickers, Molly’s Evergreen Velvet Christmas Dress, and…golly, I forgot. That was probably more info than you asked for, but that’s expected by now! As you know, we can tpye long comments! :D :D :D
I hope you get all that you’re hoping for! Merry Christmas! :) :) :)
I’ll pray for you Madi!!! I’m sure you’ll do great :)

Thank you so much! :D
You did so well! I think you were the best dancer there! ;)
Thank you so much, Makenzie! Aw, thank you, you’re so sweet ;) . There were tons of talented dancers at the recital. I was so excited to be performing again – I miss it a lot! (I used to be in Musical Theatre and Worship Arts Classes)
I can’t see the video. :( My computer said it would download it, but then it said that the media file was not supported. :(
Aw! That stinks! :( I’m so sorry it won’t work for you… If I uploaded it on photobucket.com and sent you the link, would you be able to watch it then?
You did great at your dance recital! I do ballet, lyrical, jazz and tap. I am also on a dance team! Dance is awesome! I hope you had fun performing!
Thank you so much, Emily! I know, dance is so fun! :D That is so cool that you do dance, too!
