Our Sweet Ballerina Lauren
Our little twinkle toes just started ballet. Is there anything sweeter than a class of three-year old ballerinas learning to dance? Lauren loves ballet and I find her chasse'ing all over the house. I too am enjoying having her in ballet and having an excuse shop for sweet, fluffy practice outfits and accessories!
Ballet Defined:
Wikipedia
Ballet is a formalized form of dance with its origins in the French court, further developed in France and Russia as a concert dance form. It is a highly technical form of dance with its own vocabulary. It has been influential as a form of dance globally and is taught in ballet schools around the world which use their own culture and society to modernize the art. Ballet dance works (ballets) are choreographed, and also include mime, acting, and are set to music (usually orchestral but occasionally vocal). It is best known in the form of classical ballet, notable for its techniques, such as pointe work and turn-out of the legs, its graceful, flowing, precise movements, and its ethereal qualities. Later developments include neoclassical ballet and contemporary ballet.
The etymology of the word "ballet" is related to the art form's history. The word ballet comes from the French and was borrowed into English around the 17th century. The French word in turn has its origins in Italian balletto, a diminutive of ballo (dance). Ballet ultimately traces back to Latin ballare, meaning to dance.[1]

i seriously LOVE LOVE 3 yr old ballerinas. nothing cuter! i wish kora would have wanted to do something like that. she's a monkey though and only wanted to do crazy gymnastics at that age. she's just NOW gettin girlie and wanting to dance!
I remember those days...actually you might remember my girls during those days as well since it was in Germany. I wish I had taken cute pictures like the ones of Lauren though. I don't think they would be as cute in the costumes now. I wish there were a way to turn back time.
She is so precious! How did you do that black and white picture with her in the pink tutu? She is seriously so cute! I need a little girl!!! :)
How beautiful. I am just stopping in to see what you are up to and here I find all kinds of treasure troves.. Cookie dough, raining runs and shark girl all in one day! I am so happy to see you kids, it really makes me think of the fun time we had together. Kaden is changing for sure his hair is so much blonder!! We are thinking of you Parkers!
Oh, can I say CUTE? That is the sweetest thing. She looks like a little angel. :)
