Munchkins, Jitterbugs, and Ozians - Oh MY!

Last weekend, Lauren was in her first musical production. It was a mixture of "The Wizard of Oz" and "Wicked" and was named "Beyond the Yellow Brick Road".

Spending time backstage with the other girls is always a lot of fun! Lauren has a great group of girls in her peer group at the dance studio. They played games, listened to music, rehearsed their lines, and did a conga line while waiting for their turn. I had a great time helping her and the other girls backstage it brought back a flood of memories from when I used to dance and act. This blue costume is what she wore as a munchkin.

She was also one of the jitterbugs. Aren't their costumes cute?

Here she is wearing her costume for her main role which was the Barrister (Lawyer) of Munchkin City. The mayor, coroner, and her tried to decide if the Wicked Witch of the East was morally, physically, ethically, spiritually, undeniably and reliably dead.

Here are the munchkins on stage with Glinda the Good Witch of the West. Lauren is in the black suit fifth from the right side of the picture.

Here are all those who came to watch and support her. It meant so much to her that they all came!

She felt really special when Grandma Lynda and Greg gave her these flowers.

We're SO proud of our little girl!
