What a thoroughly enjoyable day we had today preparing for Bailey's piano recital at the castle. Definitely one of those days that you just love being the parent of a special girl. The anticipation had built throughout the weeks as she continued to practice and the search was on for the perfect dress. The day of the recital was spent making Bailey feel extra special. She took a long bubble bath, put her hair in rollers, got a facial, painted her fingernails and finally the biggie: she got to wear a little bit of make-up! We are so proud of Bailey and the hard work that she put in to getting this piano piece ready for the festival. She got an excellent rating which resulted in the invitation to perform at the castle recital. She is very talented and we can only hope that her passion for music will continue throughout her life. The following photos are from the day as we prepared and then arrived at the castle followed by the grand finally, her great performance!

You Are a star my dear.. an artist at heart and forever shall you shine! Your mom really knows how to ready you for your night performance. I was glad to have an official Bailey invite and I am glad Mya & I wined and dined with you into the wee hours.. love you.
Wonderful! Bailey did so good! I keep playing it over and over again so Ellie can hear. We are very impressed. Wish we could have seen it live but will take the recording anytime Bailey looks beautiful in the new photo love the curls and wow the makeup is lovely

Bailey!
What an awsome experience for you!
You look beautiful!
Thanks Leslie for letting us be a part of all of it.
I will have Kim take photos of Kayden playing hockey! Not quite the same talent, but the same proud!
Bailey, keep up the good work and know that I am jealous. I always wanted to play the piano but never go the chance. What a beautiful girl you are...we are proud of your family.
