We've been waiting for this day!

The big day has arrived. It was my little girl's 2nd ballet recital last night!  This year is more exciting because they performed "The Sound of Music" which is a very popular musical. She has been watching the movie regularly and has already memorized most of the songs. She's been working so hard during rehearsals for the past five months! And we're all very excited to watch her performance. We were even seated in the first row with the proud grandparents. Unfortunately, CCP does not allow anyone to take pictures and videos during the show so we just have to wait for the DVD and official photos.

I am really happy that Belle is enjoying ballet.  Discipline, gracefulness, perseverance, punctuality, patience, self-confidence are just some of the admirable qualities that ballet has taught her for the past two years.  I hope she will not get tired of dancing because not all children are endowed with this talent.

Here are some of the pictures taken before and after the show.

Still managed to take pics using my I-Phone (kahit bawal!)

Belle specifically requested for us to eat at Yakimix (MOA) but the waiting list was so long! We can't wait because we're already very hungry!  She still got to eat Japanese food at Tempura.

Very good na with her chopsticks :)

Full to the max :)

Congratulations and we look forward to your next recital Belle! We love you very much!
