whobody put on a show?

So…with all of this time being stuck inside, Lola has been dreaming up and putting on 
a LOT of shows for us.  

This was the first one that she did…and it was actually this past fall sometime.  
It was awesome though. 

The biggest problem is…I don't have any photos of her actually performing in it…and my videos just won't transfer to my blog well. :) So, you will just have to see the set up!

First…this is her room…
she laid her blanket out on the floor and then 
made a stage using a stool, another blanket, and an ice pack. 

 She also made special places 
for each of us to sit:



As you can see below: 
each 'seat' has a pillow, a blanket, a necklace, and a stuffed animal.  

She also has a glass of water for each of us on her nightstand…
and handed out candy during the show.  

She puts a lot of preparation into these things.

She even made a ticket for EACH person:

On the back it told you which spot was yours according to the stuffed animal on it!


There was even a place for stroller parking….just in case.



And, of course, a direction sign…in case we didn't know where to go.
Keaton was the ticket taker.

Lola did put on a VERY GOOD SHOW.  She sang us a few made up songs and a few 'covers'.
It was wonderful.

 This has been really good practice for her,
since she has plans to become a rock star someday.
(her thinking is that she will change her first name to Taylor, and find someone to marry with the last name Swift.)
that would be ONE way to do it, I guess.

I would say that there are about 2 or 3 "shows" put on a week around here.
Most of them involve all of the kids
…and range from "basketball" 
and "volleyball shows" 
to last night's show 
"the leopard and knight in 
shining armor show". 

 I love the kids' creativity and how much preparation they put into these things!  
I should be taking more pictures of the shows to share though…
