The Wizard of OZ

To help celebrate Aleigh's 5th birthday (next week-Aug 14th) and Chelsea's 11th Birthday (Aug 7th) We have decided to make this weekend all about them! So tonight we went to the Legacy Theatre http://www.thelegacytheatre.org/ A local Theatre that produces AMAZING productions! The dance studio that Aleigh attends is actually located in the theatre. The Theatre is owned by one of Aleigh's dance teachers and her husband. They are both actors and have toured the country in several different productions. They actually hold auditions for their productions in New York City and set up housing for some of the actors, while a big majority of the people are local actors.

Aleigh really enjoyed the first half of The Wizard Of Oz (she fell asleep for the second half) because Mrs. Bethany (the owner/dance teacher) played the wicked witch and did an AMAZING job! Aleigh's tumbling/dance teacher (Mr. Dustin) played the Cowardly Lion and TOTALLY STOLE THE SHOW! He was AWESOME and had the whole audience rolling in laughter! My mom went with us and we all REALLY enjoyed it! It's so awesome to have such a neat theatre so close to home.
Tomorrow we will go to church, and then I will be taking the girls (Chelsea and Aleigh) to the Jasmine Tea Room for lunch and then up to Northpointe mall to the American Girl store! They both have been dying to go there since seeing the movie "Kit Kitterage an American Girl" We have also purchased the movie for "Molly" and "Felicity." I think I am looking forward to going as much as they are! I will post more pictures about our day tomorrow!
