Ballerina, Fair, Easter

Adeline is officially a ballerina! The leotard hasn't arrived yet, but she has on her tights and her bun! Didn't have on her slippers in this picture. We go on Tuesdays and Thursdays for an hour. This picture is for Cynthia! Thank you for the bow! Adeline has now realized that a picture looks much better if you smile. This was our third try. I would take a picture and then she would approve or disapprove after looking at the preview.
We went to the Feria (fair) this weekend. You could compare it to a stockshow. Lot's of animals and vendors. We sat and watched some calf roping and of course Adeline rode a horse.
Look closely. This is one of Adeline's signature face.
I am organizing an Easter Egg Hunt for families of Barrick employees (and anyone else who wants to joine). These are the invites that I made. My favorite is the one with the ribbon, but it was going to cost too much to buy the ribbon so I settled with the mini brads. It's hard to read so here's the poem:

Come and join us on Easter Day
For an egg hunt and lots of play.
Hide and seek the treasures around.
Let's celebrate Easter where Dominican beauty is found.

We are having it at the Botanical Gardens, of which you've seen pictures in other posts. Dominicans celebrate Semana Santa (Holy Week) which coincides with what we call Easter. There isn't any bunnies or eggs, so hosting an egg hunt is going to be lots of fun :) We'll have to dye eggs the old fashion way without the fun stickers and dye tablets.

Those invitations are so cute. I wish I could be there for the hunt!
