One of the dances they chose was the "Four Swans". Amy and her best ballet buddies were chosen to perform it and they spent countless hours learning this very difficult dance.
Just before the performance, their teacher, Terri Sellars, had a graduation party for them, explaining that they had graduated from four "ugly" ducks to four beautiful swans. It was very fun.
Laura, Amy, Samantha, and Archie. The entire dance is performed in this tight formation...very fast, and very exact.
Several years later, one of the girls, Laura Clayton, got married, and during the reception, unbeknownst to the girls, they started to play the music and asked the girls to come forward. They kicked off their shoes, assumed the position, and danced! It was amazing...four best ballet buds, one in a wedding dress. I'm not sure there was a dry eye in the crowd...I know mine weren't.
