IVNS Spring Musical Performance

On Tuesday night, Benjamin had his first school performance ever - The Indian Valley Nursery School Spring Musical. How proud we were of our little guy! He and his classmates have been practicing their 7 songs and 1 poem for months in music class at school and finally got to share their talent with all of their families at their concert. It was adorable - I was tearing up just listening to them and watching them!

Ben went over the top in terms of wanting to look dapper for his big night out. He insisted on wearing the new tie I bought for him (yes, it has trucks on it) and his dress clothes. Actually, he had been trying to wear the tie with his polos and tee-shirts for two weeks prior to the concert so I promised him that he could wear it for his big night out. Of course his dress shoes were another story entirely - he insisted that they were uncomfortable and hurt his feet so we let him wear his sandals. Oh well, win some battles and lose some others!

Pop and Nana came out for the night to join us for Ben's special evening. We left Nate and Abigail with our babysitter and took the big boy to his show and then out for ice cream afterwards. What a special night!

Here he is all decked out in his finest clothing, just before we left. We'll be getting a DVD of the performance so we didn't bother taking many pictures at the actual show and those we did take came out dark. So, you'll just have to visit us and watch his DVD :)
