Performance day!

Her competition small group received Elite High Gold and first place overall!

Her competition large group production received Platinum, First place overall and the Entertainer's award for best dance! 

It was a very successful weekend and Rea loved every minute of it!  She has worked very hard in practice and for that to translate to the stage and get approval from the judges is a great goal to accomplish.  We are so proud of her!

Celebrating with ice cream!  New to us- Whitey's!

Firsts~ 2nd grade Music concert

Reagan had her 2nd grade music concert last week- the theme was Spaced Out!

This is the first year she had to try out for a speaking part and a large group solo. She got both a speaking part and the singing part, which she was so very excited about!  She was a scientist and wanted to look the part, naturally. :)  Lab coat off Amazon worked great!

We love her music teacher- she is just the best!  The kids put on a great show!

Her cheering section:
