They had the two classes combined for graduation rehersal.. 9am-1030am
I got off work at 2am.. set my alarm.. went to bed.. got up at 645 when Kennedy got home.. told her we had to be to school early and fell back asleep..I had my alarm set for 830
I woke up to Kennedy coming in at 945 saying mom what time do I have to go to school!?
My alarm never went off.. I hurried and threw on some clothes, didnt even brush my teeth or fix my hair and took her to school where the were practicing
Got her there before 10am..
Went home.. brushed my teeth, fixed my pony and went back to pick her up
After that we really got ready for the day ha!
Got her all did up
Hair in curlers, play clothes on, fingernails and toenails painted

They all had speaking parts.. a few would speak.. theyd sing a song.. a few more would say their part.. then another song
She kept waving to all she knew
Her speaking part
