This summer Molly got choose a few of her camps and activities. She chose the Broadway Musical Summer camp at John Wesley, Alice and Wonderland Acting camp and Silivie Dance Camp (led by the Cy Creek High School Silveradoes Drill Team) I was very surprised and excited that she chose three activities that all involved a performance!
Molly has always had a love of all things Alice and was very excited to be in this play. At first she was sad that she was cast as Daisy, and not one of the three Alices or the Cheshire Cat, but after watching all the kids rehearsing their songs and running their difficult lines, she was thankful to start her acting career with a small part!
Molly was Daisy, one of the 'Girls of the Golden Afternoon'

Now I will admit that normally I am the one chasing my friends and family around requesting (perhaps demanding) pictures, but this time Molly kept asking me to take tons and tons of pictures after her performances!

and with the Mad Hatter and March Hare.
The second camp of her choice was Broadway Musical camp run by her music teacher from Yeager. Molly LOVED it. They performed several songs that Molly really liked from several musicals including Annie, Seussical the Musical, You're a Good Man Charlie Brown and Wicked.
*I am trying to learn to live in the moment and really enjoy the kids' parties and performances instead of always watching them through my camera lens, so I just took a couple of pictures during the last song of the night... I realized I enjoyed watching Molly and the other kids without trying to take a cute picture of them performing and I don't feel sad at all that I didn't capture every second!

Molly had a blast at Silvie Camp and since I didn't get any good shots of her performance here is one cute picture of Molly and Jessica during their week of practice.
