Christmas Show

The girls had their annual elementary school Christmas Show (the first for them) this pasty week.The entire school participates, each grade at a certain level. The younger ones sing along with some of the songs, the older ones sing more songs, and the 4th and 5th graders act and dance also. The pictures are pretty self-explanatory. However, in this first picture, Ali had just walked in, sat down in front of the entire auditorium and decided to fix her hair. For those of you who were around when she was little, she fixed her hair ala "Strawberry Shortcake Shampoo". If you don't know what "Strawberry Shortcake Shampoo" is, ask my step-father Doug.

Ali and her good friend Elijah.

What a fantastic picture of a beaming Julianna. She had just walked in and spotted us.

This is Bayley, one the the girls' bestest friends. Bayley's mom Tabatha is the president of the PTA, but more, she watches the girls after school. Bayley is their special 5th grade friend, and they love her. As a 5th grader, Baylet acted in the show.


This is C.J., Bayley's little brother. He is a kindergartner, so where he was sitting wasn't quite as bright. He is autistic (fortunately very high functioning), and the girls absolutely love helping him out. They are fantastic with him, and he loves them.
