There's no doubt that Ali had the best form in this ballet
number |

February 2010 Studio Dance Photos by Uncle
Philip |
|
By 2010,
Alexandria had been involved in dance for seven years with Ms.
Krista at the Krista Whitener Academy of Dance in Conover.
Over the years they traveled to numerous competitions in NC and
even out of the state. Part of that experience included
the various dance costumes for the different dance numbers. |

Such a
beautiful dancer and girl |

Thanks Uncle Philip & Leslie for all the
variety of photos you've helped provide for the family over the
years. |

28 April 2012 - Alexandria
Shines |
|
On 28 Apr 2012, Alexandria was nine years old - but would be
turning ten in October. Her love for dance continued to
grow. She continued with dance until the age of twelve
when she started 7th Grade at River Bend Middle School in
Catawba County, NC. At that time she chose to turn in her
dance shoes for tennis shoes as she joined the River Bend
Cross-Country Track Team. |
|

|
You can see how good she is with the choreography |
|
|
You'll also notice her "dance smile" through this
particular dance number |

Dedication |
|
Ali, I love you so very much. Every photo that I've added
to this page made me smile - and reminded me just how special
you are. You're kind, sweet and gentle. May you
always follow after the ways of the LORD and may you grow up to
serve Yeshua/Jesus with zeal and passion. Only "true"
happiness comes from Him. Love you, Poppi. |
