On Saturday after JJ’s birthday party some time was spent on braiding and curling Addy’s hair for her dance recital. Addy, her mommy and Auntie Lolo left early and we followed later. We waited with anticipation to see Addy come on stage.
The lighting was difficult but I was able to get some photos to show some of the dance moves.
In this shot you can see the braids and curls that held well throughout the performance. Hats off to Auntie Lolo and her mommy.
She really danced her heart out and it was great to see her confidence on stage. I wish I could have gotten the video to load onto my computer but it just didn’t work for me.
Baba and Gramps thought you did a wonderful job. You worked hard at your practices and it showed on stage! Well done, Addy!
Home to have a good rest before her next performance on Sunday afternoon.
We found out after the show that there were a few of the young performers who had challenges to overcome and they did it brilliantly. There was one young dancer who was completely deaf. Another amazing young man with a cochlear implant from the same family who was one of the stars of the show. Another performer came to the Haran Dancers without being able to jump or hop. All of these challenges were overcome with practice and patience. We are pleased that our granddaughter can learn and perform in this wonderful school of Irish Dancers with gifted teachers.

…what fun!
Cute photos of Addy’s dancing, she did a great job!
Take care, have a wonderful day and a happy weekend.
How precious! Looks like she really enjoys it and that is so important. My daughter did one year of dance and hated it so we did not make her continue. She mostly hated the frilly “pink” dresses they had to wear. LOL! She’s still quite a tomboy.
That looks like so much fun! Only one of my children had the opportunity for a lot of dancing instruction for a few years and I was so glad for it.
I so agree – bless the teacher with that large of a group! I’m happy your granddaughter is learning the intricate footwork that is required to perform in Irish dancing which is so beautiful!
Very talented young lady, dances and plays the piano. So nice that you get to see her do both. 🙂
Well done Addy on all that dancing. Your dress is amazing and I love your hair. So pretty. B x
How awesome that was. So glad she participated in that. Looks like she did a wonderful job. She should be very proud of herself.
I love to watch Irish dancing! Great job!!
