Last October Tori was in a community play. There is a big stage in the local movie theater where they practiced and performed. The name of the musical was "Betty Lou and the Country Beast," I believe. It was kind of a melodrama. It had some nice music and was cute. It really meant a lot to Tori to be in it. We took the kids to her dress rehearsal, and then John went to the first performance, and Eli and I went to the final one. Eli and I arrived quite early since we had to bring Tor back to the theater. I saw other parents coming in with flowers, and I panicked. (I had given Tori flowers after a dance recital once, and it meant the world to her.) I asked one of the parents where the closest florist was, and Eli and I went running to the car. We were able to get a pretty bouquet and make it back in time. In her quiet way, Tori just basked in the whole theater experience. It made me really happy to see her so proud and happy.

| The young kids were only cast as "farm critters." Their practice schedule was so much easier, though, that I was instantly thrilled. |

| This is a traveling production that brings the set and costumes with them. |

| Cutest pig ever. And you should have heard the emotion in her grunting. |
