School Play

The elementary school my children have all attended puts on a musical play every spring and we have been attending for many years. (since Brianna was in 1st grade!)

Most of my kids don't really crave the spotlight that much, but they all have had fun participating and have gotten a turn to shine. The plays are always wonderful and last weeks performance of Alice in Wonderland was no exception...





This year Amy was "Rosebud" and she had 3 LINES! She said,"Hi, I'm Rosebud!", "I thinks she's pretty."(referring to Alice), and "I still think she's pretty!" Pretty big job for a 1st grader! She also sang a song with all the other flowers. She did great!


Joseph was an octopus in the Caucus Race. He got to sing and dance and run around with the other animals. Lots of FUN!

Sarah was Tweedle-Dum. She had lots of lines and even sang a SOLO! She really didn't want to sing by herself, but she did fantastic and now I hope she has learned that she can do ANYTHING!


It is so fun to see your children conquer new challenges, discover their talents, and have a great time too! We had wonderful support and a great visit with lots of family after the play! (Bethany and Stetsen came on Saturday and watched the High-Lights video that Eric made. We will show you too, if you can drop by. :)

  2. It was a delightful event! Part of the joy comes in the flashback moments of past years and each child's time to shine. We loved it -- and the glutten free treats that followed were scrumptious! What a family!
