Waipuk Show Day

aka "dancing at the show day"!

All ready to go...practiced all morning!Lily with the big girls doing a reel, that's Lily's back in the front of the photo - I love how she's ended up between the two bigger girls making an arch in this shot!
Ready for her first Highland Fling (I videoed most of her dances, but haven't figured out how to download the videos off the camera yet...sorry Nath! Will get there ♥)

Mid fling - love how the tongue helps with concentration!

Few stage performances later and the girls dancing for the first time got medals - now she's really hooked!!!

Super proud! (Crocs protecting her brand new highland shoes from Scotland - in case you're wondering! And if anyone's in the industry...it's impossible to buy white knee high socks for tiny feet, probably not much of a market though - yay for Nannie's overlocker!)

Pony rides...

Waiting for it..."can we please have a pony"...I'm sure it's coming...again!Lachie got all the cuddles...this bunny and a really fluffy cat

This has got to be the best fundraiser I've ever seen...a few instructions for Lachie

Scoop the drink - he was really quick, we watched the bigger kid before him and he took ages (maybe he just wanted a longer turn!)

Looking very expert there Lachie...just like your Mum!!!

Then off for a spin round the racetrack while Mum turned the cola drink into a cold can of lemonade!...it was more like a Sunday drive though, the flames are just for show!

Dropped Lachie of at the pools for a party then off to "dancing at the show" round 2...Eden's turn this time! Here doing 16 pas de basquesJulie giving her a medal too - Eden's only been going to highland to watch Lily but has picked up the moves quite well. Julie's never had a just 4 year old learning before!She's been saying all afternoon how she feels really special ☺ Daddy then went to work so we went back to the pools for a swim until the party had finished...summer's definitely arrived here today!

Happy birthday Lukas!
