Jen said to me a few weeks ago, "How come there's not a post just about me?" And I said "Sweetie, I could do a whole BLOG just on you! You are involved with so many fun things right now, I'm waiting to do a whole thing on you when and if you're ever DONE with them!!!!!!!"
SOOOOOO, she is FINALLY done with a few things! (of course in a few weeks, she'll have another performance of some kind!) But for a brief moment I am not the "performing arts" shuttle bus. (VERY brief....)
Anyway, Jen is quite the little performer. She decided to be in a new dance studio this year called Lifehouse and not do Stars anymore. She did this so she could also do Show Choir and theater at school. It turned out to be a great decision!
She has absoloutely LOVED dancing here, and has excelled at it! (she's got some of her Grandma Chis in her!!!) She's danced since she was 3 but I think she's really found her niche here. We loved watching her dance at our church Christmas party to "Breath of Heaven", in her fireside which was beautiful and in her ballet, The Four Seasons (Vivaldi). Her group was Spring, it was really well done technically and artistically.
She has just taken off with her singing and theater performances too. (she's got some of her Grandma B and I guess some of her mom in her somewhere too!)
Her big show choir movie night included her choreographing Thoroughly Modern Millie and Hairspray, which were so CUTE! (notice the blue dress, that was one of my formals from high school :) y'all!) Oh I have so many memories of doing this in jr high and high school. I know how much fun they are and I'm glad she's gotten to experience this! She and some of her friends choreographed and made up a dance for the school talent show which they had to audition for, and made it and did such a cute job, this was a big deal for them too!
Finally, she performed as a lead dance soloist and lead ensemble in her school musical "Once on this Island". This was a difficult play for Junior High, and they did an excellent job.
We are proud of her for all her accomplishments this year, but we are even more happy that she's happy, sure of herself, helpful to us and her siblings and a really, really great girl.
We love you so much BOO Bear, way to go!!!!!!!!
