Danica and the Talent Show

Danica's school had a year-end talent show, and Danica showed her talent by being one of the five emcees. We decided to show up for the event, and for a change 😁, I took some pictures. 

They set up at the side of the stage early and waited for the parents and the rest of the school to file in.





Here is JJ coming in (left, green shirt). He studiously avoided acknowledging us.  😄



The emcees introduced the event and themselves. (Almost all of the acts stayed too close to the front of the stage where the lighting was poor.  They should have been in mid-stage.)



Each act, and there were many, was introduced from the side of the stage. It was Danica's turn to introduce an act.



There were many acts, but most were short, and it was well organized with each group being ready to step right up. Danica's step-sister (right, aqua) danced in one of the acts.



My old body got tired of sitting in those stacking chairs, so I stood at the rear for the final few numbers and took this shot of the whole scene. The emcees are back on stage wrapping it up.



I managed to get a shot of Danica at the end before we went our separate ways.



They have three more days of school next week and then two months off.

She looks so poised...and I love her kitty ears! It is great to see parents and kids coming together for performances.

Your granddaughter is looking very grownup these days! It's lovely to see them becoming young adults, but sort of sad to leave those baby years behind too. Good luck to her .

They do grow so fast! It is a good talent to be able to speak in front of large groups. she will find that useful.

What? Only two months off? Didn't we used to get three?

Danica is a real beauty and growing up so quickly. Sigh...
Granddaughters grow up too fast. I can't believe mine will be a teenager at the end of the year. Wow!
