Emily's Spring Show for Palmetto Prep

On Thursday, April 24th, Emily had her first school production called "Lighten Up" for Palmetto Prep. Around 5:30, Carmen and Ian so graciously came over to babysit Ansley and Bailey since John was out of town and so I could take Emily to her show. On our way to the show, we ran by Chick-fil-a and then drove to Woodruff Rd. Christian Church (located right across from Palmetto Prep). The kids were suppose to be there at 6:15 in order to get ready. Since one of their songs was inspired by an "Old School Rap" they were suppose to dress in t-shirts, jeans, tennis shoes, and gold chains. Emily thought getting to wear every gold necklace mom and I owned was great!!!

When we arrived at the church, Emily and I made it to the room where the Pre-K was gathering/playing while they were getting ready. I hung out for a little bit before it was time for me to head on and the kids to get prepared. I then headed to to fellowship hall where they were having the show to save some seats. First Mom and Dave arrived, followed by Daddy. We all chatted a little before the show began. It started with the older kids doing a couple of numbers before the little ones joined them. When the got up on stage, Emily seemed to be excited, but a little nervous. When they sang a couple of songs, the little ones took a break while the big kids did a few more. At the end, the little ones came back out to finish up the show. It was very cute and Emily seemed excited to have been there!!


Afterwards, I let Emily go up on stage to have her picture taken. In usual Emily fashion, she tripped over one of the cords to a mike. Looking back, we are very glad we did not name her Grace =) I could defiantly see our little drama queen on stage again =)


After some pics, we said good by to Ms. Doyle and Mom, Dave, and I took Emily to Brusters for ice cream to celebrate the show.
