Amanda as a butterfly for Adventures in Narnia!
I am finally getting caught up on some blogging... so get ready!
Last weekend Amanda had the honor of being a part of her dance school's annual Adventures in Narnia production. For those of you who aren't familiar, the Adventures of Narnia is a series of books written by C.S. Lewis full of fantasy and mythical creatures, which portray the message of Christ and His sacrifice for humanity - very fitting for a Christmas production.
Amanda was a butterfly - their dance was part of the change happening in Narnia when Lady Winter was finally freed and spring returned to Narnia. Overall the production was impressive and well done, considering the majority of the performers/dancers were under the age of 16!! It was a very busy week leading up to it, with rehearsals every night except Wednesday. Friday night Amanda & I stayed to watch the entire rehearsal, since it would be her only chance to see it.
There were 2 performances on Saturday and 1 on Sunday. We were a little worried because they were starting to forecast snow, but thankfully the bad weather held off until Monday. Grandma McCone, Uncle Chris, and Uncle Zack came all the way down from Washington just for Amanda's performance, and Grandpa and Miss Pennie also attended.
It was busy and exhausting, but Amanda loved it and is ready to start practicing for next year!
Anyway, here are a few pictures from Amanda's performance. (I tried uploading the video but it's too big, so I'll figure out another way to do it!)
