Treasured MOM-ents: Behind the Scenes...

Behind the Scenes...

I was behind the scenes with Kimi for her second day performance at Michael J. Fox.

It looked like a picnic indoor in the dressing room with all the parents all geared up to keep the dancers busy while waiting for their number. The whole production was really long and I didn't stay to finish the whole production. I waited until Kimi's second number and left soon after, the kids were really tired from all the waiting since the waiting between the two numbers is around 2 hours long. I was really proud of how well Kimi behaved in the dressing area on the first day with other moms changing her costume (since I was watching the show...). I realized that the coloring books and activity things that the mommies brought was the reason she was preoccupied that day :)

I was able to take more pictures while I was with Kimi...

A short 5 minutes drive from her school :)

* I love the theatre, it was a good size and was really clean

* I'm so strong mommy

Sorry, not an expert on doing makeups for stage

so I just put in colors to make her less pale...

* Teacher Carly... So good with the kids

* She loved the foam stickers activity a lot...

* I couldn't resist taking a back picture...

look at the cute furry tail

* All ready to dance...

* Waiting for their turn...

* Mommy?! where you going?

This lady reminds me a bit of Suri Cruise.. So cute...

* I'm still here...

I still don't have the video with me but I have made a short video with pictures from the dance (some are already up there), with the exact song for their dance. I hope it's easy to extract some parts from the DVD that will be given to us so I can post them here next time...
