Emmy's Program

Last night we went to Emma's school program. The first, second and third grades were performing songs and dances from around the world. I love to watch the kids in action because some of the expressions are so great. Unfortunately there was no stage so it was pretty difficult to get pictures and video. But we did manage to get a few.
Here is Emma in the midst of one of the songs. She seems to be enjoying herself quite a bit. She has been singing some of these songs for a few weeks when she is visiting as well as she has shown me a few dance steps.

Lucy and Kelli are intently watching the program. I think this is one of the dances the kids were doing with all kinds of colored boa looking things. I don't really know what they were called but it was pretty cute, especially at the end when the some of the kids were arguing between themselves at how they were to be placed to make a star. At least I think that is what they were making....I couldn't see very well.


O.K. the program is over and grandma is bugging to take a picture. She really does not want to cooperate even with her dad telling her to. A long tiring day and evening. So Jed offers her a cookie and then the tune changes a bit.

Oh well now that perked her up. Just up her alley. But darn she has to go home to get it.

Here I finally got my picture.

Sounds like a fun program, wish I could've come! Oh Emma, our little feisty grown-up girl. The picture of her and Jed surprised me--for some reason, that's the first time I really have ever noticed a resemblance! I'm not sure how, maybe the cheeks/cheekbones/faceshape? I have no idea, but she suddenly resembles him more! Or maybe I'm just seeing things, I don't know...

I think it's the face shape... cuz every time I see Emma I think of Kelli! What a cutie-pie.
