Days with the Dorans

So this post is pretty much going to be a giant picture drop! Ali and I ended up going to the rest of the shows (thanks to working again) and the whole family joined us (in great seats) for the final night. Everyone LOVED it!!! I'm a bit sad Joey only has 3 HS musicals left! What a great experience! The two White Knights with Mrs. Connell! With Logan Eli- Joey's Trumpet Squad Leader Love this kid! He's super tall so I had Joey stand on a step! With Garrett and Justin Edgy Veggies With Emma A bunch of Joey's friends- from Cast Party Gabe and Joey! Proud Grandparents- Grandma couldn't make it due to health issues. Joey's kind of bouquet!  Part of the set that the kids signed for Joey- love this! This is where Al and I sat- Shows were SOLD OUT! Only seats left in the place!

 I was SOOOO excited to see Footloose! Joey has been so talking about it nonstop (since it's taken up all his time) and I couldn't wait to see it put together. Unlike the middle school musicals, I had no "sneak peeks" so this was a total surprise. Auntie Jodi had a sick kiddo at home so wasn't able to make opening night (when I had tickets for us) so Matt became my date. We had a great dinner before and LOVED the show! I kind of loved the ad I came up with... On the second night, Ali and I worked the tickets (she gets NJHS hours) and then she left with Jeff and I joined Danny, Steph and the kids in the balcony for show two.  I have to say the more I see this show, the more I love it. I am amazed at the voices and choreography- the acting- it all came together so nicely! The cool part was I was also able to spot my boy! He has loved the friendships he made through this. He knew a lot of the people through band and other things but I think ...
