Masquerade Junior Awards

Jordan's goal going into today was to get a Platinum for her solo & get in the Top 10 overall in the Junior Division.  Well folks......here she is!

And not only did she get a Platinum but she was chosen as one of six dancers from today who were invited to attend the All Star Dancers Convention in NYC this summer!!  So proud of my JoJo!  Goals- BOOM!!!

And the Junior Co. also got a Platinum for Sugar Plum & 2nd Place overall in the whole Junior Division. They killed it today!

Despite losing the top to her solo costume (another story for another blog) she looked beautiful in Zoe's gently worn solo costume.  And thank goodness, it fit perfectly!

And a hug!

And one from big sis as well

The Masquerade Dance Competition began this evening with the Teen Division solos. Zoe competed 2 solos- her contemporary solo called Lost & her pointe variation Dulcinea. 

On the elevator going down to compete.

And of course, with her best friend Callan who did fabulous in her solo. She got a Platinum award as well as got into the Top 10 in the Teen Division!!  Way to go Callan! 

Zoe got Platinum awards for both her 
solos & she got the highest cumulative 
score for her 2 solos in the whole Teen Division & won the Teen Miss Dance title. 

HUGE trophy & a gorgeous crystal masquerade mask & yes, another jacket!
