Ah, the sweet sounds of little voices singing. Last night was the 1st grade musical performance of "Animals". And what a great performance it was! The kids did an awesome job with the singing and hand motions. They were all so stinkin' cute. It brings back memories of when I was that age and singing in programs. I thought I was so big and that moment was so big! Looking back at it now all I can do is laugh.
Pop was able to catch it all on video so we can look back in 20 years and see how young we all once were. Thankfully there aren't many videos of my little programs! That's probably a good thing.
Here are a couple of snapshots from our evening out.
Emalee, Samantha and Miss Priss stopping for a quick

(They are all in the same class.)

Marching in to begin the show.
The whole 1st grade. There are 9 classes in all.
With around 20 in each class, that's a lot of kids!
Miss Priss was so excited about the colorful shirts.
She said "Momma, your're gonna love the rainbow of colors!"
Singing their little hearts out.
Here they are roaring like lions during the "Cool Cats" song.
Waving to all the parents after the show.
This performance brought back a lot of other memories last night too. It was held in the auditorium of the middle school. You see a few years ago they built a new high school, so they turned the old one into the middle school. The building is still "the high school" to me though. I spent four years in that building and I haven't been back for a LONG time. It still looks the same, but wow did it feel different. Everything got a lot smaller!!! It was just fun to think of all the times I ran down those halls, sat in those classrooms and opened those lockers. Wow how time flies. Makes you feel quite old! It's neat to go back and reminisce though.
