First pair of pointe shoes!


After nine years of dance instruction, Brooklyn has finally about to start dancing on pointe. We went this afternoon and had her fitted for her first pair of toe shoes (pointe shoes). She was so excited. Usually it takes a good while to find the best shoe and the best fit. There was a classmate of Brooklyn's there, and took her about 20 pair of shoes and about an hour to finish. When it came Brooklyn's turn, it only took about 25 minutes, and I think she ended up with the first pair she tried on. (However, she tried on about 10 -12 pair). Now Monday, we will let her dance teacher check the fit and if all is well, I'm sure I will have her dancing around the house all the time! Love it!

Update: Shoes approved! Let the dancin' begin!
