the Christmas Program

last night was the girl child's debut in a play...
okay so I was a small play...
but it was her first, 
the church has an annual Christmas program that showcases all the different talents from our church body...

the bell choir and the choir are a given

and one of the 'entrys' is usually the kids choir

this year, bless her heart, Mrs. Judy, the kids choir director, decided to try to put together a mini play...
a few short lines in between songs with a few of the kids choir kids
highlighting the 'story of Christmas'...

Madison had the 'led' (for lack of a better term) in the play...
she was excited and nervous
loved the fact that she was going to wear a mic...
and she did great, and had a great time...

but...
but...
with anything that involves animals or children
especially the boy child
you must expect the unexpected...
and well, 
Madison might have had the lead role in the play, but Wilson stole the show!

during the 2nd show he spent the majority of the time showing the audience how HOT the stage lights were by trying to undress...he was wearing a polo shirt with a sweater on top...
he ONLY wanted to take the sweater off...
after a few failed attempts to remove the sweater he decides to just deal and push his sleeves up...
and that works...for about 2 minutes...
and then he returned to the original goal of getting that hot sweater off...
many times he'd get it over his head and realize that he was going to be stuck and then he'd just pull it back on...
finally, he managed to get the sweater off...
and then he noticed that his polo shirt didn't have all the buttons buttoned...
so now for the rest of the show he MUST get those buttons buttoned...
and finally before the last note of the last song, he managed to get it all together!

all this happening in the background while poor Madison in delivering her lines and wondering why the audience (and her parents) are laughing!
and of course I didn't take any pictures or video of it...

Ha,ha,ha! Oh I wish we could have been there! And, I am amazed and disappointed that you didn't have your camera!

That's awesome.
Reminds me of the story my Mom tells....church program, I was like 5. She's laughing at these two brothers fighting during the songs and looks around and realized the other people were laughing but looking at HER. She then glances up and me and sees me with my dress over my head :)
