It is the beginning of spring break, but the end of Emily's high school theatre career! Emily has been performing in theatre since the age of 9... when we moved out of Mesa. OK... so I started her into it, but she has loved it ever since. It is always been a love of mine. I am glad it is a love of hers. It has been so fun to see her develop this talent and have fun along the way. At times it has been heartbreaking when she doesn't get the part that she wants, the main part. But, she takes after her mother and is always in the background. There is one thing that she is good at, though, and that is dance. Because of her knowledge and love of dance she was able to choreograph the school musical, "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown." She thoroughly enjoyed being on the other end of putting a show together. As it turned out... she also got to be in it. She became Linus' blanket when he sang his solo about his blanket. And, as luck would have it, some kids had to drop out leaving spaces in the dances, which Emily was able to fill. So, now she was "IN" the show. What a great experience for her. She always looks good on stage with her facial expressions... she may need to work on learning those dances though! (In one dance she went left instead of right!) What a talented young woman she is.
She is the one in the middle behind Charlie Brown. She is wearing a jean jacket, skirt and pig tails. Cute isn't she?!

I suppose I should mention that one of Emily's best friends got to play the part of Lucy!
