Lauren's spring concert

Tuesday, 3/5/12

The East Buchanan Elementary Spring Concert was a Disney theme this year. Lauren decided to wear the Cinderella dress that Grammy gave Lindsay for her 3rd birthday... and she asked to wear eye-shadow, so I let her :)

and to have curly hair again :) Thanks to Sara Dolan for the tip on how to do that! (soft curlers that are easy to sleep in)  The curls start out tight in the morning and loosen up throughout the day. However, 2-recesses plus a lot of wind did not help our cause for this evening ;)

And to complete the outfit, costume rhinestone jewelry, also given to Lindsay from Grammy. It was a necklace from Great-Grandma Lorraine Beyer (Jim's mom).

Super concert... so impressed with Mr. Brown, the elementary music teacher. He does such a nice job with all the kids. And it helps that Lauren loves to sing. We had to print off the lyrics and put them in her Buc-binder so she could read them & practice the words. :)

Lauren continues to love 1st grade. She loves all subjects, but especially reading... "but mom I love art, and music, oh, and recess too!"  She came home yesterday, Thursday, 3/22/12 and said, "Mom! I did it! I went all the way across the monkey bars all by myself!!"  She has been practicing for quite a while evidently. :)
