Movie Magic

After months of rigorous practice, the kids hit the stage in Movie Magic.

Breanna was part of the chorus of ushers (first row center).

Then she sang and danced with her class to "You Ain't Never Had a Friend Like Me".

Had to add this picture of Jordan's amazing solo.

He's gonna be famous one day, ya know?

Jake's class were Newsies in "Sieze the Day"

Jake tearin it up front and center here.

And the finale, Mrs. Musser thanking everyone.

Jake's so happy it's over! Here's a little clip of Jake's part.

(We tried to video Bree as well, but it didn't turn out! Arghhhh!)

Symphony

I won the ultimate prize on Friday when I got to chaperon both Jake and Bree's field trip to the symphony. They have never gone on a field trip together. We even got to ride on the same bus!

Jordan kept telling me that the sign said no flash photography was allowed.
I think he was waiting for the ushers to come throw me out. Adults can be so difficult.

I loved sitting by Jake, listening to him hum along to all the Polar Express songs.

Bree and Mrs. Hannah

The best part of the trip: They both wanted to sit by me on the bus ride home!

Made my entire day!

Carnival!

Just a few pics from the most anticipated night of the season!

Bree and Dahlia

Jake Jordan Andrew

Being brave on the kiddie rides!

There's nothing like a carnival with your friends!

The Weather Man Strikes!

The local news came to broadcast the weather from the kids' school, so we raced out the door and made it just in time. There was a huge crowd and the kids had fun. Breanna's teacher told me that Breanna cried when the helicopter landed because she thought it was so amazing. That's my girl!

Here's a close-up of the weather man. Can you spot Jake in the crowd? Look to the left and back of the weather man's elbow.

Breezy and her girls. The girl in the red jacket is a friend of Breanna's who came to church with us a few weeks ago. Breanna is a great little missionary!



Jake and his friends. Jake loves to have fun and it is rumored that he's somewhat of a class clown! Fortunately, he bears a strong resemblance to his teacher's son, so he immediately won her over. Or so he says!

Just thought I'd throw this one in of Whoville Hair Day. Gotta love Dr. Seuss!
