Our sweet Kelsey participated in the Hope of American Student Showcase this week. It was held in the Marriott Center at
BYU. Morgan also got to perform in this a few years back and it's quite the inspiring production.
Thousands of 5
th graders from Utah County demonstrated their patriotism through song and dance. Our Kelsey was in yellow and was at the top of the flag. In this picture (below) she is in the top row, second inside from the aisle (next to her good friend,
Dessa). They were obviously jamming on this song with sunglasses on.
Kelsey's grandparents, Carol and Lynn, are always so supportive. They joined in the fun of the evening. I think Lynn's favorite part was watching Jean's Golden Girls. I haven't heard him "hoop and
holler" that loud in a long time.
Jean's Golden Girls is a group of more than 100 women between the ages of 50- and 93-years-old. This sweet 93-year-old ended the show with her own dance and
splits. Crazy huh? I didn't get a good pic of her that night but found this pic online. Those splits have made her a local celebrity.
Morgan had to miss a "mandatory" girls' camp meeting to attend. (bummer). I told her Kelsey sat through her performance a few years back and now it was payback.
Jake wanted to act miserable but truth be known I think he enjoyed it. Here he is doing the wave.
It was a long but enjoyable evening and I was inspired to be more patriotic, more grateful and more willing to serve. Good job Kels!
