Abby's School Program

This year Abby's class participated in PMLC's KDO Christmas Program. The kids don't start doing this until 3 - really any younger and you'd have kids all over the stage. We were so excited and decided to leave the other two siblings at home with a sitter so the night could be all about Abby (plus Jake said he didn't want to go and I knew Lily would just want to be on stage with Abby :-).
The program was called "Oh Bethlehem", yes she goes to a church preschool :-), you won't see this program in any public school, lol. They sang 4 songs, had a few group speaking parts and lots of fun. The music teacher read the narration and the whole thing lasted about 20 minutes. Perfect time for 3 and 4 year olds.
At first, Abby (and many other kids) got a little stage fright and stared into the audience, but by the middle of the first song she was really into it. By the last song however, she started looking around and everyone and everything. Four songs was just perfect.
Getting a bit bored.
The whole school (3 and 4 year olds at least).
After the program, they lead the kids out by class to the big Christmas tree for class pictures. Fabulous idea! We got some great shots of Abby and her best friend Landry as well as her whole class.
Abby's teacher Mrs. Patty. We LOVE her!!!

Abby and her best friend Landry (black and white dress, she was so cute leaning into Abby for the picture, not the greatest of Abby though, she didn't know where to look - there were so many moms calling to their kids saying smile/cheese).
A better one of Abby.
Great job sweetheart!
Jake gets his turn in March. His class is doing a skit of some sort for the PTA that month. Not sure how he will do since he's already said he doesn't want to do it. Hmmm. He is SO like his cousin Noah.
