The highlight of our week last week was Noelle’s 1st grade musical entitled “Nuts!”  It was the cutest, most entertaining little sing-along kid’s show we’ve ever seen!  The kids had a blast and all week Noelle couldn’t wait until it was show time!  Here are some of Noelle’s friends, left to right: Emily, Ava, Noelle, Georgia, Emerson, and Claire

Jacob and Noelle were in the same class last year and this year and are fun little friends!  Jacob is like the class clown, and Noelle loves to laugh, so they get along great!  And here’s a little pic of the sister stair step, but they are all growing so fast, I know they won’t be stair-stepped forever!

Here’s Carson, Noelle and Ava after the play!  They were all so giddy and cute!

Before the play, we got to go to the library and check out their “art show!”  Noelle did a great job with her design, and I knew it was hers right when I saw it… full of life and color!

Here is Lesleigh trying to keep the littles entertained before the show began!

Noelle’s house color is yellow.  Rose got this yellow jewelry from the Easter bunny in her Easter basket and was happy to let Noelle borrow it for her special night, lol!  It turned out super cute.  Wish I could say I planned it, but I just thought yellow would be a pretty color for Rose to have, and Noelle found it in Rose’s bow drawer and asked if she could wear it.  Perfect idea and taste, as always.  She was really disappointed they couldn’t get all dressed up for their program like they did last year, so she accessorized to make up for it… always designing and getting her fancy on.  I wish I could be more like her.  She’s so brave and bold… I love her style!  She’s helped me come out of my shell a lot.  We were in a store today, and she told me she liked a flowy sheer top that went off the shoulder on one side.  I told her I liked it too and she said, “Someday I’m going to make you a top just like that one.”  She’s always thinking like that.  Those comments really stick with me because I have never heard another 6 year old talk or dream like that.

Oh, and these littles are just waiting for their turn up on that big stage!  They’ve already got personality plus!

Noelle is to the right of the microphone on the bottom row.  She was still in her ending pose because she saw me taking a picture.

This is Mrs. Baker’s last year of teaching.  She’s been the music teacher for 14 years at Noelle’s school.  Noelle was dying to get her picture with Mrs. Baker and loves her very much.  After we congratulated Mrs. Baker, Noelle showed Anna Kate how it felt to be on the risers.  They were so happy and proud to be up there!

After a quick picture with Momma, we headed to Yogurt Zone for a treat!  This was such a fun night that comes once a year now.  I can’t wait for many more of the special nights to come!

Great job, Noelle!!!  We are always so proud of you!  You are happy, confident, graceful, energetic and sweet and anyone who was watching couldn’t miss that snaggletooth cutie on the front row shining brighter than her shirt!  Lots of love always, Mom and Dad
