Mckennas Play

I haven't posted much at all since Christmas, so this is my catch up of radom stuff that has happened.

Mckenna tried out for this little community play that they do a couple times a year. It was a spoof on Sleeping Beauty. They try out on a monday, find out who makes it that night- practice every day after school tues-fri. then put on two shows on saturday. Mckenna was at least hoping to be in some chorus or group thing, but she got the part of Sleeping Beautys dog. Believe it or not, it was a coveted part. She had some speaking parts, and of course she had to stay in character and bark a lot, but the fun part was that she was in almost the whole play since she was with Sleeping Beauty. I was surprised at how good the play was for these kids to put it on in a couple of days. Of course the big main part was played by one of the directors and they all did such a good job. She had so much fun, she has been begging me to get her in some other kind of plays. Next time she says she would like to be a person and have more speaking parts and soon some solo singing parts. She has come a long way since her preschool perfomances when she would see me and run down to me crying and hiding her face.
