3 Year Old - Rock Star! :)

Brenden had his first music program at preschool last week. We were very nervous about how he would do because just about every other event this year has turned out to be a disaster when we attend. (He cried and disobeyed his teachers at the Halloween parade. He cried and disobeyed Mommy and Daddy at the Thanksgiving feast.) We expected lots of tears, drama, and disobedience to be honest...we were also plotting how we would casually escape the church if he had a meltdown once he saw us. We are ashamed to admit that we were surprised by his "performance" and behaviors...in a good way! :)

Here is Daddy and Bryleigh waiting for the show to begin.

Here is Brenden and his class coming into the chapel to perform...Brenden did not notice us in the crowd because we tried to hide when he walked in.

Here is Brenden singing on the stage...in this picture he was sitting calmly singing but that lasted about 2 seconds. He spent the rest of the time standing up performing, acting out the songs, and running back and forth. We think he might have had a little bit of nervous energy up there. :)

Here is a (not so good) picture of Mommy and Brenden after the show...He was so excited!!!

Here is Brenden after the performance showing off his yummy cookie snack.

Below is Brenden and his BFF Avery both eating at the classroom party.
Finally, here he is in the classroom beaming with excitement in his adorable reindeer shirt that his teachers made with them. We were so proud of him and pleased that we're seeing some improvement at school! :)

That was definitely a day that we will always remember! I was so proud of Brenden! Avery told B's mom that next year, when he grows up, he will sing like Brenden did! :) I can't wait to show you the video that B took of Brenden being silly... priceless.
