Broadway Buddies!!!!

Since September, Emma's after school activity has been a thing called Broadway Bound. There were 3 different classes: the buddies, 6-8 year olds, blast, 9-13 year olds, and then the troupe which was 9-13 year olds who auditioned. These past few months they have been learning 5 songs and choreography to go along with them. This past Friday night was the culmination of it all, THE BIG PERFORMANCE!!! Emma did a wonderful job dancing and singing and had a solo in the song YMCA. She had so much fun doing it all, and I think it was a great experience for her to be able to be on stage and in a show, something she's wanted to do for a LONG time!

Taylor, Julia Anne, Ty and Emma. Taylor is our main babysitter her and we were so glad she and her sister came to support Emma.

Emma, Katie Beth, and Madelyn. Madelyn was in the show too, but Katie Beth is a friend from school and church who came to cheer them both on--What a TRUE Friend!!!
Emma and Ty being sweet on stage after the show. Ty was great the whole week of dress rehersals and the night of the show, he just sat and watched and was sooo good!! He is definitely a great little brother. When it was over, and Emma came out front to see us all, he was the 1st one to run up to her and give her a BIG hug!!
Probably 2 of Emma's Biggest Fans---PaPa and MiMi, they flew all the way in from Dallas for the big show!!!
