We got back from Cedar City around midnight and crashed. Then we woke up early the next morning to get the girls ready for their recital. Kevin and Vicki came early to help and the girls were surprisingly cooperative! We arrived on time and in good spirits, but once Charlotte saw all the people there, she suddenly clammed up and didn't want to go out onto the floor with the other kids. So she sat in the teacher's lap for a while and we just kept hoping that she'd remember that "Phipps are brave" and do her routine.
This is when the kids line up before their performance and were introduced by class. Hazel became shy as well but they did what they were told and luckily they got to stand next to one another, which helped.
Eloise spent the entire time cleaning out this tube of snacks. She was great!
Charlotte did eventually come out of her shell and she did her performance just right. They both did well and we were so proud!
Grandma and Grandpa Phipps came and watched the performance, which was so nice. Then when the girls were done, Papa Kevin went out to the car and brought the girls some flowers! We're so lucky to have so much family support and love. The girls felt very special, which they are.
