As you’ll recall, Layla’s been dancing for a long time, and she’s really quite good. The struggle has been ballet vs. other junk (my term) like hip-hop. I’m in favor of the former, she’s in favor of the latter.
So this fall, she started at a new dance school, taking 5 different classes a week, including ballet. And one of those classes does quite a bit of performing. In the last six weeks, she’s performed at a craft fair, some charity event at SMU, and a little thing at Highland Park Village on Friday.
And last weekend, she danced at a Christmas Tree lighting at Firewheel Town Center. Her group did two numbers, and I can’t tell whether they are supposed to be in sync or not. Whatever. She had fun.
Nothing says Christmas like Mariah Carey (Layla’s on the far right):
I’m far too old to know what this song is (I know it’s not a Christmas tune) and I’m too tired to look it up.
After after, they lit the tree, see shaky iPhone pic below, and set off fireworks. Cause nothing says Christmas before Thanksgiving like fireworks.
