Hubby played P.J. the dj. He did a great job with a huge part, and looked cute in his white t-shirt and black leather jacket. I did have big crushes on Danny & Kenickie (okay, and maybe the Fonz a little, too) when I was a little younger.
Big Sister helped out in the "improvised" Nativity towards the end. She was dressed as an angel and sang the first line of "Away in a Manger" until the rest of the group joined in. She was darling.
She loved being a part of the production. After her part last night (the third performance) I waved at her and held my arms out to hug her and invite her into my lap. She waved at me, then proceeded to walk right past me, to the spotlight platform. Apparently, at every other performance, she sat with Mr. Tony. I think that was about as much a part of performing for her as actually being on stage. Mommy would have to wait until afterward, with the rest of the fans.She became such a part of the cast that I started (lovingly) referring to her as the mascot. People in the play that I didn't even know she knew were coming up to her, patting her on the head, teasing her and asking her if she wanted to go with them to play. She ate it up.
She even got some of them to help her collect all of the fake snow- a challenge I gave her to help pass the time while she waited on Daddy while he helped strike the set.
Daddy & Big Sis ought to be very proud of themselves. They also ought to be exhausted. In fact, Big Sister is napping away as I type this.Maybe she'll take a few more naps this week... hmm...maybe we should sign her up for a few more productions!
For all of you relatives wondering, the "official" video camera ran out of batteries (I know, right?!) but there were a few other families taping the show. We'll try to round up a copy to bring to Ohio for Christmas.
