Singin' and Dancin'

Aidan and Avery have both been doing preschool choir up at church and they had their program last night (right before the elementary school kids' Christmas play). Aidan has done this before but it was Avery's debut. As you can see in the video she was more excited to see me than she was to sing :) Poor Daniel already had a flight scheduled for a business trip so he had to miss it!


Avery also had her dance recital last weekend. The December recitals are at the Wylie Arts Festival which is outdoors, but this year it got moved indoors due to the weather. Great, right? Wrong! It was super crowded and we didn't even have a view of the stage. I held my camera up to take a video and then watched it at home. What a nightmare! She had practiced the steps (she's in the front on the left) but only remembered a little...partly because there was no one to "watch" while she did it, it was too loud to hear the music over the crowd, and it was just plain overwhelming! Daddy came and brought flowers...but I know he wanted to be watching the Baylor game instead, and I didn't blame him! Oh well, the recital in May is supposed to be more formal, and a lot better :)

Before the show. The girl in between Avery and Cousin Sage looks like she's not too sure of things (and ended up crying on stage). Poor thing!
