If you've heard Lily talking about "her recital," (if you've been around her for more than two seconds lately, you've heard about the big event) you'd think that it was taking place next week. Wrong. So wrong. June 7th will mark the big day...but fear not, we'll be talking about it almost every day until then!

(Family Day at Perfect Pointe Dance Studio in December -- Lily with some of her partners in crime)

Because Lily had to miss two classes in a row, her teacher, Miss Kendra, emailed me the recital routine so that (excuse me while I die laughing) we can "practice it at home." So, for those of you who want a preview...

Imagine 10 little girls dressed up like yellow flowers, in TAP SHOES, and then read on --

Start on purple Xes, feet together, hands on hips.

1-16 Knee bounces w/ hands on hips
1-8 Heel dig R side w/ diagonal arms 12, step together as arms come in 34, same thing L 5-8.
1-8 Repeat heel digs
1-8 3 big shuffles R, step 7, hold 8
1-8 3 big shuffles L, step 7, hold 8
1-8 Mime making snow fall w/ fingers moving from over head and down front of body 1-4, make a big happy face w/ hands framing face 5-8
1-8 Wave hands side to side over head while shaking hips side to side

All of this is set to Tom Chapin's "Some Assembly Required."
