For these girls the spotlight is where it's at. At a recent faculty/student talent show, Savannah enjoyed using a clip on mike for the first time, while Kennon decided she's grateful we forced her to play piano.
Savannah sang a silly song about a girl who can't pronounce her R's dating a boy named "Clawence".
Kennon played, "Little Spring Song". A million thanks to her piano teacher Krystal King, for her recent love affair with the piano.
Also here's a Note to all mom's involved in school PTA's. They charged $3 a person for the show, held it 2 nights, sold candy and popcorn, and All the proceeds went to the upcoming musical. It was a wonderful show and really seemed to bring the whole school together. Kid's love to see their teachers singing and dancing on stage.
I was completely happy to participate in this fundraiser. 100% went to the school, and none of it to some business and Most Important -My kids didn't have to sell candy bars or candles to all our neighbors. We hate those kind of fundraisers and won't let our kids participate. If you want to generate money for your school either do a direct solicitation (suggest each family donate $35 dollars at the beginning of the year) or hold a fun event and you get all the money!

I seriously can't believe you have kids this age. That is amazing/awesome/crazy!!!
I wish my girls were that brave. I couldn't talk them into it this year. Too fun. Look like there was no stage fright at all. Good job girls!
I am in total agreement with the fundraiser. Wish our schools would do that. I hate the wrapping paper and candy sales. I also hate buying it, and I hate turning kids down when they come to my door. The latest I got was two HS kids coming to my door for a "donation" to "sponsor" them to go on a soccer trip to Italy. Hmmm...no. Sorry! Sell me something, or sell me a ticket and prepare something fun, but I'm not just shelling out money for kids to go to Europe. Crazy!
