Our lives have been in quite a whirlwind these last few weeks because of four little words "The Wizard of Oz". Emma had the INCREDIBLE opportunity to be a munchkin in one of our local theatres production of the Wizard of Oz. She auditioned in August. Practices started in Oct. and she has LOVED every single minute of it. Before their last performance (they were able to perform it 13 times) she even said, "I wish it wasn't going to be over, I want to do this every day!!" Never once did she complain about going to practices, long rehearsals, late nights, she loved it all. She was chosen to be a lullaby league munchkin, so she was in the scene (if you've seen the movie) where Dorthy lands in Munchkin land, she meets Glenda the Good witch and the Wicked witch of the West, is introduced. She also got to do a little ballet number with 2 other girls to represent the lullaby league. The whole thing was incredible and we are so thankful she had this chance!!

Hi, Sara:
I was walking with Melaney this morning and she told me you had a blog. I've had one for over a year now. I can't wait to start reading and catching up with your family.
The kids are absolutely beautiful. Talk to you soon.
Belinda
