Ballet

Caitlyn recently had a chance to perform in a "Best of Ballet" show, featuring variations from several different classical ballets.  her dances were from Esmeralda, Swan Lake, and Paquita.

Dress rehearsals are always fun :)
 This is the Esmeralda variation.  I loved the costume and the tambourine.  Several times during the dance she kicked the tambourine.  Very cool.  It was her most challenging dance with the hardest part being 12 kicks of the tambourine in a row from passe' on pointe (I don't know if that has a real name, so, oh, well.)
She rocked :)
You can see a YouTube video of the variation (not Caitlyn doing it) here.

 Caitlyn isn't in this one, but I love the picture.  This is a Swan Lake variation.

 Swan Lake variation.  Pretty girl.  Cool picture. :)
 Paquita - Like this picture :)
 Paquita - the girls called these the Barbie costumes because of the pink.  Haha.
Thanks to our awesome friends that came to watch.  That makes it even more fun!
