KARA'S DEBUT CONCERT

THE LEAD UP..... Tuesday is the day we would head to dancing, at first I think she would rather have played with the boys outside with the footy than do her dancing, but never the less we kept going week after week. Then she started seeing the costumes that she was to wear (which I had to take them off a very teary Kara as she wanted to take them home), then she realised that she was going to be on stage like her big brother's school concert. Once it got closer we had to start doing the countdown she was soooo excited.

The Day has arrived ....very excited Kara runs to greet Linda. (Linda is a very close friend who did Kara's make-up and hair) as her daughter Rylie was also in the same concert. Im not sure who was more nervous me or Kara....lol

UP GOES THE HAIR

ON GOES THE MAKE-UP AND LIPSTICK


FIRST SHE DANCED TO "VOODOO CHILD"

SECOND SHE DANCED TO "BETTER THE DEVIL YOU KNOW".

My little girl is growing up, I was so proud to see her up there doing her dances I would be fibbing if I said I didnt have the tissues out.

Kara was very excited to see everyone out in the audience Nanny, Gwen, Alicia, Christine, Emily, Linda and mummy of course went and seen the Friday performance, and Daddy, Haden, Matt & Jorgia went on the Monday. Nanny had to drive 3 hrs to come see Kara dance. (Thx mum that meant alot to me and specially Kara).

We arrive home close to midnight, clean the make-up off and put her to bed, I think she was asleep before I walked out the room, sure is a long late night for the little ones and to think she had to do it again on the Monday night.

TILL NEXT YEAR "THE END"

    Oh sis.... I'm sitting here looking at the pics, and yes got a tears in my eyes, just wish I could have made it down .. next year hopefully they will have a Saturday performance. Looking at the pics brought back all the memories and fun times when Serayha, Alyce & Emily did there tap & jazz. Give her a big hug & kiss for me, and tell her I will watch the DVD when I come down.
    Love always

    Hi Joanne ~ Great photos of Kara, and she looked lovely and did very well by the sound of it. A star is born !!!
    Thanks for your comments and for the encouragement that it was not just old age. Have a Dr. appointment tomorrow at 2 pm, so guess that's where I got muddled. And yes, I have checked the time for tomorrow. Take care, Love, Merle.

    Hi Jen -- That Kara is precious!

    I'm glad she did well and hope Monday will be good too for her.

    BTW, my 18 years old granddaughter wore a devil costume for Halloween this year, but I didn't get to see her in it. Maybe she took pictures but there aren't any on her MySpace blog.

    Sorry I've been gone so long. Mema has been keeping us busy here.
