Aubrey was involved in several noteworthy things near the end of school. First, we were invited to her school twice for special awards presentations - one for being the "Writer of the Month" and one for being "an example of creativity and hard work in all academic areas throughout the year" (her teacher's words). Below, picture with Dan after the awards assembly.
Later that same day I returned to her school to watch the kids in her class perform plays dealing with the time preceding the Revolutionary War. Aubrey did a great job acting and singing. She and two friends had written an original song describing the Declaration of Independence. So fun!
The next day Aubrey performed in a musical theater revue which showcased songs from many different Broadway shows. She sang and danced in the Oliver numbers . . .
and she was Fiona in the song "I Know It's Today" from the musical Shrek. Actually, in this song Fiona grows from a small girl to a young woman, so she played one of the Fionas. She did such an amazing job! I have a great video of her singing, but haven't been able to get any of my videos to post on blogger. I'll keep working on it. We were amazed at Aubrey's poise and confidence. She sang beautifully and clearly and did a great job with the comic elements of the song.

Great job Aubrey!
