"Hairspray"

"Oh, oh, oh
Look at my hair
What "do" can compare with mine today?
Oh, oh, oh,
I've got my hairspray and radio
I'm ready to go..."

No, I'm not talking about me...although I do use my share of the stuff to freeze my long mane.

McKenzie was in her 2nd showcase with The Stage School on May 27th (oops..just realizing at this moment it was my older bros' b-day yesterday --didn't even register that date until now...calling him now and blogging about it so he knows I feel badly for being blonde yesterday...or just a super duper busy mom of six...however you want to see it. I kind of sound like Penny Pingleton:) Happy Birthday, bro!

So back to Hairspray...all the kids just looked and sounded fantastic. They had on their stage faces complete with the 5 lbs. of makeup and a gallon of hairspray. Elisha always does a phenomenal job with the ever-growing cast and makes each girl want to come back for more! I saw McKenzie as a teenager today---of course wearing more makeup than she'd ever be allowed to wear and walk across the threshold of this home with....but she looks all grown up...and she's NINE! She's as tall as any fifth-grader (though she's in third) and, well, performed with confidence, zeal, character, and lots of voice...that's McKenzie for ya. Gotta love 'er! Way to go, AngelKenz and the rest of the cast!
