Dancing?

Evelyn as a Blue Fairy.  Can I be perfectly honest.  I don't do hair at all.  The people at the dress rehearsals kept sending Evelyn back with a list of requirements for me to follow that I had done wrong the time before.  I got mad.  If they wanted me to do it, then they should accept what I had to offer or do it themselves.  We finally got an acceptable ballet hair bun with the right hair nets and the right amount of hairspray (to make it look newly wet but not dirty).  I had to apologize to Evelyn for getting mad the third time she came back and said that something was wrong with her hair....

Ada "showing" me her mad dancing skills.

Here she's dressed as a rainbow gnome.  This is the one part of the ballet that was hardest for her.  She was supposed to do a cartwheel in time with the person in front of her.  One of the performances she was able to do it.  The other two, not so much.  She said this costume was itchy and hard to take off.  I volunteered backstage for the last show and she was right.  Half of the gnomes had a 45 second costume change and me and another volunteer had to help the girls get these things off so that they could put the other other.... it wasn't easy but the girls handled it like pros.
