Spring Musical 2010


Tonight was Ali's school musical. The first graders performed "A Farmer's Life". The paper that came home months ago "suggested" the kids wear costumes: butterflies, farm animals, flowers, worms... Ali decided that she would like to be a flower. Yikes...Fun project for Mommy! Although, I have to admit it was pretty cute.

The show started at the high school at 6:30, but I made sure our family was there by 6:00. {I think we might have been there even earlier than that!} They were still setting up the risers, speakers, etc. but I marched us in anyway and sat us all down front and center. As I looked around, I saw that several people sitting on riser chairs. I commented to the lady next to me what a good idea that was... she told me she has been doing this a few years. I better find myself some riser seats for next year!

Alison was so excited for this night - even more so because Gramma, Grampa, NJ and Johnna came to watch her perform. Although, NJ was pretty much ready to blow the popsicle stand after Ali's songs were over... "Why do we have to stay for the rest?"
The performance was great and the kids were all super cute. We all went out for ice cream after the show {along with almost everyone else, apparently} and talked about our favorite parts... Ali: "the performance", NJ: "Ali's part", Johnna: "Shortnin' Bread", and Meri....?? "Rainbow ice cream!!".
