Cinderella
Sage was cast as Cinderella in the middle school musical this year! Woohoo! She worked so hard to get ready for it and I think we all had the songs memorized by the time the performances came! She made some new friends and is so excited to be at the same school with...
Back to the Cross
This year, the children's choir at church did the musical, Back to the Cross. The girls had done this musical once before, so it was fun to do it again. (And it's my favorite children's musical because the message is great and the music is too!) Sage, Samantha and...
