My niece...well the makeup and stuff never changes. My niece is at point and has to wear full makup and the hair has to be in a tight bun with no strands lose or she isn't allowed to go onstage. Plus, when in a performance (she is in the Colorado ballet every year doing the nutcracker among others) she has to be at rehearsal at like 5 in the morning and then after school too till like 9. I don't think I would ever want savannah doing it just cause that is all that she would ever do, not to mention that I am not into her ever wearing makeup and revealing dress.... at least not till she is 50!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4629217942696182058.post-89183873810663087702008-02-16T12:10:00.000-06:002008-02-16T12:10:00.000-06:00Yeah, I'm not sure I'd want my 4 year old daughter...Yeah, I'm not sure I'd want my 4 year old daughter in the hot pink number either.

When I taught piano, I always found places that were committed to the arts so they were willing to rent the space for cheaper. <BR/><BR/>But they sure are cute!

I bet you could make cute outfits for about $5 a piece! or maybe $10. but with $75, imagine what you could make! you could dress them in gold foil. do you watch project runway? i'm in love. everyweek their budget is about $100 and they make the most amazing stuff that would probably retail for hundreds. it makes me wonder how much it cost Banana Republic to make those $118 dress pants that I drool over. I wish so much I was an expert seamstress and could sew all my own clothes. I've been looking into taking a sewing class nearby, but you know... it's just one more thing on my to-do list for now.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08988057035703045037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4629217942696182058.post-32036089146800173362008-02-15T19:55:00.000-06:002008-02-15T19:55:00.000-06:00there's a $50 fee each for renting the building an...there's a $50 fee each for renting the building and $75 a piece for the costume...a pointless outfit that they will never wear again except to dress up and that and expensive piece of dress up clothing if you ask me!Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028600889013935580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4629217942696182058.post-53284226309527703822008-02-15T16:26:00.000-06:002008-02-15T16:26:00.000-06:00$250!!???? why in the world would it cost that mu...$250!!???? why in the world would it cost that much to coordinate a recital? or are they trying to make money off of it? that's sounds so weird to me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08988057035703045037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4629217942696182058.post-27437547463377643982008-02-15T13:51:00.000-06:002008-02-15T13:51:00.000-06:00yes, they're going to have a recital but it will c...yes, they're going to have a recital but it will cost us $250 to put them in it and we're trying to buy a house here. we just can't afford it.<BR/><BR/>my grandma got totally fed up with the hair always being in her face so she gave her a cute hair cut with bangs and everything. she likes and and we like it, too.Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028600889013935580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4629217942696182058.post-12189376215159729282008-02-15T12:58:00.000-06:002008-02-15T12:58:00.000-06:00i just noticed that Sarah has bangs! very cute!i just noticed that Sarah has bangs! very cute!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08988057035703045037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4629217942696182058.post-378675288544593652008-02-15T12:51:00.000-06:002008-02-15T12:51:00.000-06:00awwww! super cute! i wish i was there so i could w...awwww! super cute! i wish i was there so i could watch them. you should video tape them and post it. will they have a recital?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08988057035703045037noreply@blogger.com
