Adrianna decided to participate in the local talent show again this year, Night of the Stars. Bree and Cate decided to give it a try, too!
All three girls played the piano. Adrianna played “Other Friends” from the movie Steven Universe. Bree played “Brumm’s Accordian” from the video game HollowKnight, and Cate played “Drift Away” from the movie Steven Universe.
Luckily I had bought a few fancy (used) dresses for Adrianna a few months ago for only $5 a piece! She even wore makeup for the very first time! She was absolutely gorgeous. (A fellow contestant was even flirting with her backstage! Haha!) All three girls wore flowers in their hair and were so adorable.
One thing that was extra special about this performance was getting to have BOTH sets of grandparents in the audience! So special.
Cate’s age group (K-3) was up first. She was so confident and her curtsy was so cute.
The upper elementary group (grades 4-6) were next. She flashed her beautiful dimpled smile after she was done playing and then walked off the *front* of the stage (instead of to the side) to where we were sitting in the front row. (In her defense, that WAS what everyone did during the auditions and rehearsal…)
Adrianna was in the high school division and wowed the audience with her playing. She does a good job getting into her performance and is a treat to watch. She really pounds on the piano – it was shaking!
To our delight, all three girls placed first in their respected ages/categories!
Now on to Regionals next week!
