One Day at a re-Belle-ious Time

Busy much?  yes please...  The story of my life.  

Today is the dress rehearsal that we get to go to for Beauty and the Beast!  

And we get to take pictures!!!  So expect some tomorrow.

WAY back at Christmas-time, I never thought it would take so long, yet only seem like a few days since we knew Meri would be Belle.  The stress has taken it's toll on her.  A deep one.  Friendships have been gained and a few lost.  But I hope after the first performance tonight, in front of a live audience, she'll realize her worth.

She got her hair dyed for the production and it's a deep deep brown.  It's only supposed to last a few weeks and then fade out.  I hope so.  It's weird to see her with such dark hair.

Before.

After.

See what I mean?  but it was either dye it or wear a wig.  She has such beautiful hair and it's so thick that a wig would look odd over all that.

Planning college visits and scheduling last minute things for the end of her senior year are coming up too.  But I can't think about that yet.  I still have a prom dress and a tux to make...  

I should probably order the fabric, huh?...

I'm looking forward to digging into that, but for now, one major event at a time.

I am looking forward to hearing all about the play. I am sorry it has caused her stress and the loss of some friendships, but the upside is that she has made some new friends she might never have known well if not for this experience. Best of luck to all and tell here to "Break a leg" for me.

I am looking forward to hearing about her kick-butt performance in the play. I can't wait!

Oh I would love to see her play. High school is loaded with stress and trials.

I like Meri's natural hair colour much better than the dark brown, but it'll wash out eventually. And I think she is perfect for the part of Belle! Great job on the dresses! I have an old school friend whose daughter went into "musical theatre" - do you think that's in her future??
