Sophie's Play

Sophie was picked to play Dorothy, by her wonderful teacher Mrs. Dennis, in her 2nd grade play of The Winter Wizard of Oz. Sophie was pleased, but took it in stride in her own quiet way, that she was chosen for Dorothy. I was excited for her until I saw the script - so long! But she read it every day and soon had it down pat. And her delivery was priceless -nice and expressive. We were so proud of her! Since we were in Del Mar the whole week before the performance I was just a leetle worried, but Mrs. Dennis had total confidence in our little Soph to pull it off. And she so did! All those years of doing plays in Nana and Papa's basement have paid off!

 The brainless Snow Man, Dorothy, Toto the poodleskirted dog, the Tin Soldier, and the overpriced stuffed Cowardly Lion. They stopped every few scenes to throw in some Christmas songs. Mrs. Dennis went all out on scenery, background music, sound effects... it was awesome!

 Follow the Peppermint road! And be sure to be polite! :-)

There's no place like home! For the holidays, that is!

 

 We love Mrs. Dennis! She was Maggie's teacher too, and does a great job.

 Nanny made it to her show - Sophie was thrilled!!! We love our Nanny!
