Little Orphan Emma

Way back in January 5th and 6th graders at our elementary school started working on the play "Annie Jr." The performance in May seemed so far off. But as life always goes, it came and went faster than you can say "I love you Miss Hannagin". Emma was so excited to get to be a part of this and had such a great time! They performed 4 times- 2 during school for the kids and 2 nights for the parents. I saw 3 out of the 4 and it was so fun to watch the kids get better and better and more confident. Emma played the part of "Duffy" the orphan.

Here's some of the actors before the show.
Emma had a few lines and a few singing parts.

And a little dancing. "Hard Knock Life" was my favorite part.
Also a little fighting. Doesn't she look scary? Pepper better start running for the hills.
Daddy Warbucks, Annie, and Grace Farrell. Annie was adorable and they all did an awesome job.

Miranda and Sally and Eter came out for the show which was such a treat! And don't forget baby James. We loved seeing Sally's cute belly :) Miranda's an expert on kids' plays and she gave it 2 thumbs up.
And local family support as well :)
Eli and Holly also saw 3 out of the 4 shows and were mesmerized. I'm pretty sure we'll be hearing all the songs for around our house for months to come.
Emma felt so loved. Thanks everyone!
Great job Emmy! "I love ya- tomorrow" (and forever)!
