Dance competition season has begun and last weekend was the first of 4. It was a fairly small competition, with Abigail's studio being only 1 of 3 studio's there. Most of the dances from her studio, including the 2 that Abigail participated in (a tap and jazz), were entered in the 'Expert' category for which they got 'Gold' for both of their dances. Basically, you have silver, gold, high-gold and platinum.A number of the girls from Abigail's studio won first place for their solo, duet, and group competitions... all winning a small cash prize.
Anyways, we were able to video her first dance (the benefit of showing up after the competition starts is you don't hear the announcement that no video recorders are allowed). The make-up is a little overwhelming, but they call it "stage" make-up because without it, the kids really do look very pale. Abby loves getting all made up, of course, but hates all the scrubbing it takes to remove it.
So, for your enjoyment, here is Abigail's tap routine where she shows the most emotion that I've ever seen in her dancing career.

Very cute. WOW, where does she get that emotion from?
That was great. Nothing better then a little parently piracy to make sure you capture a moment. Abigail did GREAT.
