Bri's First Thanksgiving Play

Last Wednesday, Doug, my mom and I headed over to Bri's school to see her in her very first play. It was called "It's Turkey Time." The kids told the story of the first Thanksgiving and then they did a dance number to a song called "The Turkey Tango." It was cute stuff! Bri was a Native American Indian and she only had two lines, "We know how to fish. We can show you how." She remembered her lines, but she said them kind of low and rather quickly. Hey - at least she remember them! And she totally rocked the "Turkey Tango!" She is one heck of a tango dancer! Here are a few pictures (some taken by me and some taken by my mom)...








After the play, one of Bri's classmates was celebrating a birthday, so she and her mom passed out cupcakes. Just as the kids started to eat, a tornado warning was issued in the area and everyone had to go into the hallway. As you can see below in the back corner, Briana was petrified of what was happening. Not. Ahem. She didn't let go of that cupcake...

Since the play ended right before the end of the day, Bri was allowed to go home with us. Here she is walking down the hallway...

And here she is dressed in the morning for the day in her brown top and turkey clip...


In the last few photos, Bri looks so grown up. Just like a big girl. Who told her she was allowed to grow up? Not me, certainly.

Her first school play - another milestone already! You're right; they grow up way too fast and without any permission from us :) Glad Bri wasn't frightened by the tornado warning and it passed you by safely.

I so agree with Debbie...that's what makes holiday special! It feels like yesterday Sam was doing things like that...oh how I miss those days. My baby is growing up and fast! Braina melts my heart when I see her in pictures, she's one beautiful little girl and has been from day one.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Very fun and good job on remembering her lines. I'm with you, why are these girls growing up so quickly?
