Drama

Today the elementary school was successful in delivering their first dramatic performance of the year.  In honor of the holiday season, one of the teachers adapted Cinderella into a play.  Auditions were held, rehearsals were had, and stress levels (of the staff involved) went out the roof.  However, today, CinderFella and the Christmas Ball was delivered in all its glory.  Somehow, over the course of the past month, Heidi became the director, prop-designer, and every-other-part-of-putting-on-a-play-for-5-to-11-year-old-extraordinaire.  Let's just say that by the time the final lines were delivered, Heidi was sweated through her shirt, nearly passed out on the floor, and ready to walk away from elementary school forever.  And to think, all that for a mere 20 minutes of entertainment which Adam pointed out, only 5 minutes of which were actually audible.

Thank goodness Santa attire is so readily available on the streets of Saigon.

Snow White...Cinderella...ehh,kind of all the same

The magic sleigh. Obviously nothing says Christmas like a pink ribbon.
