Jacob! Jacob and Sons!

How could this have NOT made it on the blog yet? I know. Because we have so many things to blog about and our computer had almost entirely bit the dust. Thanks to an early Christmas present to Mom and Dad, we have our new computer and lots more blog updates should be happening! Hurray!

Anyway! Way back in August, Mom saw a Facebook post from a friend that her daughter was going to be trying out for a children's choir to perform in a high school production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat. Mom knew immediately that I would want to be in on that. Luckily there were no restrictions on which elementary school you were from and so she had me audition! (We MIGHT have posted about that earlier...) It was so great. All the kids who auditioned were invited to be part of the choir. We met twice a week for an hour through most of September and October. Grandma and Aunt Becca were extremely helpful in getting me to rehearsals because it coincided with both parents teaching!

I was so excited. As luck would have it, Cara actually got to be in the production as well. They wanted just a few baby sheep and she was the perfect size for it! She learned a very simple dance and was pretty dang cute.

The beginning of November was pretty much all about the play for us girls. We had rehearsal every night and then we had performances for a week straight!

We performed two matinees for some elementary school classes, and then there were FIVE night time performances. It was so great. We had someone we knew in the audience at almost every performance. Joseph is our favorite musical anyway!

I learned so much from being in the choir. I became a better singer and learned how they set plays up.

Iva joined in on watching the play two different nights. She loves Joseph too!
Sam did NOT go into see the play. 

Our Preslar cousins even joined us for one of our nights. We were so happy to have them come visit even if it was REALLY quick.

Lexi made it one night too!

We were really sad when the play ended but we got the BEST news. We get to do an encore presentation of the play. We have TWO more showings in January. One last hurrah!

It was truly such a great experience. Mom hopes it is the first play of many for us!
