Performing

Jadyn loves performing. She was so excited to have a part in the chorus for the winter musical at school and she always enjoys performing in the recitals for her dance studio. However, wouldn't it be our luck that this year the winter musical and dance recital ended up being the same week!?!?!

And what a busy week it was.

Every day after school was jammed packed with rehearsals, squeezing in homework before falling into bed utterly exhausted. But Jadyn was a trooper and we made it through.

Here she is before the first morning performance of Fee Fi Fo Fum (Jack and the Beanstalk). Jadyn played a villager:

The play was very funny and entertaining. I was fortunate enough to get to watch all 3 performances and see the show improve each and every time. I also helped out taking cast pictures, working the box office and organizing the cast party. No wonder I was just as tired as Jadyn.

And here are some pics of Jadyn before and during her cheer performance in the winter recital:

 After the show, we went out to dinner to celebrate:

It was a whirlwind week. It was both fun and exhausting and we are so proud of Jadynn for working hard and not being afraid to go on stage and perform. She is our little shining star.

You have so much to be proud of! I love how 'sparkly' she is in her cheer picture!
