Annual Dance Festival

Friday was the last day of school for the kids. The teachers gave up teaching several weeks ago, for some of the kids, as far as I can tell... Since it's the annual dance festival, it's time for the annual "John takes blurry pictures of the kids in the dance festival." The grades do the same dance every year. (Kindergarten in the Jello dance, 6th grade does the maypole, etc.)

Ruth really enjoyed being in the Jello dance this year.

Emma was in the hat dance. Not sure what to call it, really.

Mary did the pole thing. I just call it the pole thing. She enjoyed it, as you can clearly see. (Or mostly clearly.)

Kate was in the silly little island dance. If you zoom in on the picture, you can see the expression on her face. This is the expression she used the whole time. Clearly she did not want to be there. I asked her later, she said she didn't like that one. She must get her love of dance from her father...

Next year, I expect to have a phone with a better camera. (Mine is due for replacement this Winter.) Maybe we will get less blurry pictures next year.
