Jonah and Eden's Spring Concert

Jonah and Eden had a Spring Concert the other night. It was just for the 1st-3rd graders, so it was nice and short and not too crowded. I thought the songs were so cute and fun and not the usual drag you hear at school performances. No offense to our old school, but their concerts sucked! They were so crowded, you couldn't even hear the kids or see them, and the songs were mostly lame-o. Way to go, Mr. Holladay for putting on an entertaining Spring Concert!

One thing they did that was a ton of fun was have the 3rd graders sing "Do Re Mi" from The Sound of Music, and then they had the crowd join in for part of the song. That was a lot of fun.

Eden's class sang "Day-O" or whatever it's called. It was really cute. She's in the front in the navy and white striped dress.

Here's a video of Jonah's grade. He's the one in the front row really getting into it on the left of the kid in red.


He was cracking everyone up. Right before the song, he saw us in the crowd and said, "Mom! I forgot to brush my teeth!" He had us all laughing. He was obviously having a great time. When it was over, he was on such a high; he tried to give the kids around him a high five, but they all gave him the shaft. I felt bad for him, but he seemed okay. Then when they filed off the stage, an older man got out of his seat and came up to Jonah and gave him five!

At the end, the three grades got together to sing "Hey Now, You're a Leader." Since the kids are learning the Seven Habits at school, they sing a lot of songs about leadership. Eden and her friend, Kia, were totally jamming right up front. Jonah is somewhere a few rows back in the middle.



The kids really put their hearts and souls into performing their songs! I was super proud. I think they were the hit of the show. We got tons of comments afterward, even from the school principal! Great performing, kids!
